I am an American diabetic who has been having absolute hell trying to get my medication since having to switch to United Healthcare after changing jobs. Two days after the assassination, my prior authorization FINALLY went through.
For the non-Americans, a prior-authorization is when your doctor prescribes a medication they believe you require, your insurance then says they won’t cover it because you don’t require this medication, and then your doctor has to write them a letter saying “I’m a doctor, they need this medication”🙃. United healthcare uses AI to deny claims so basically everything a doctor may say you need your insurance will then require your doctor to write a letter saying you need it.
Oh, and if it’s a treatment or medication which requires prior authorization you cannot get it covered unless you get the letter BEFORE receiving the medication/treatment. This means you may need to delay your medication or treatment, as well as possibly needing additional appointments for $100-$200+ a pop
Just you wait until these CEOs start hiring private security and cost that out to the company... double the claims will be rejected. People are rising up against the wrong people. Nobody should target the CEOs, they will just be replaced or hire armed security. Get angry at your politicians and government. They are the ultimate cause of your health care mess. Also, very glad to hear you got what you need 👍 I hope the delay didn't cause you too many issues.
Back in 2016, the lady from my parents' congregation who used to babysit my sister and I was at the end of a difficult pregnancy and her son was born about ten days early. That's not a huge problem nowadays, he just had to spend a few days in the NICU. HIS SECOND DAY ON EARTH THE NURSE WHO HAD BEEN ON DUTY FOR 16 HOURS OVER FED HIM AND BURST HIS INTESTINES!!!! He was rushed into surgery but only lived another 2 days, thanks to a massive infection. Afterwards the hospital tried to bill the insurance EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS for the baby they killed which their insurance UNC refused to cover BC THE FAMILY HADN'T GIVEN THEM HIS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND INSTEAD LET THE BILL GO TO COLLECTIONS!!!! THIS WOMEN WAS ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED OVER LOSING HER BABY AND THE DAY AFTER HIS FUNERAL SHE STARTED GETTING PHONE CALLS FROM DEBT COLLECTORS! The hospital had also tried to get her to sign a pathetically small settlement when her husband was at work (yup couldn't take any more time off work or he'd risk losing that amazing healthcare coverage 🙄) that wouldn't even cover what she'd spent on her healthcare to have the baby they killed, much less anything's else. That's why everyone cheered the death of this evil man. Same if had been the CEO of a hospital chain.
Aussie here 3 years ago I had a pregnancy with a condition called Placenta Previa Acreata. Basically the placenta attaches itself to the bottom of the womb blocking the birth canal and poses a huge risk of rupture which is a life threatening situation, aka similar seriousness of bleeding that of cutting your jugular or femoral artery. Aka 15 mins to death. Unconsciousness to brain dead in 10-12. So the birth needs to be a C section with a hysterectomy, to stop the hemorrhaging. However the more complex part is the separating where the placenta has grown into/attached. In most cases it's just the womb/ embryonic sac, vaginal walls. And in less fortunate situations like mine, the bladder and parental unknown areas due to both Ultrasounds, and MRI were unable to clearly tell what they were expecting beforehand. Now I had literally a room full of obstetricians, radiologists, anaesthesiologist, Trauma team for the blood recovery/recycling machine and urologists. There was 8 of the best Drs in South Australia. All hashing out the delivery...when, where, who, what, before informing us of the time, day, location. (We knew that the likelyhood of having to change to a different hospital due to them having the better facilities for this kind of surgery. Now once we went over the procedure, were explained the whole process, what to expect, etc and of course risk factors etc. Most cases is baby born prematurely at 34-36 weeks. Baby is fine besides standard premature baby health eg, lungs need steroids to promote them developing completely. And birth weight brought upto full term size. Baby is no more at risk than any other C section, premature birth. Extremely low mortality rate. Mother's mortality rate, is 13% but that is an average including old data from when we didn't have the technology and experience we have now It's more about 5 to 7%. This Average is the same in UK, France, Germany. Canada The USA however.... Although they have the equipment and knowledge. They have a maternal mobility rate similar to 3rd world countries. With 30 to 45% only using recent 15-20 years of data. The 45% is typically People of colour or Hispanic who have a lowered recovery rate. But that is a huge % for a Wealthy and medically well equipped country. They also have ample supply of donor blood, unlike the other countries who have similar % Now considering I had the best of the best Drs fighting over who gets to do the procedure, A whole room full of the best of each field. It took the Dr.. an extra 5.5hrs and 5lts of blood 3.5 ltd of my own Blood recycled and 2lts of donor to stop the bleeding and remove the uterus and ruptured placenta. 9 days post op, including my own room (ICU then on ward, in the acute recovery room opposite the nurses) Plus several appointments for wound care and check up afterwards. Plus 8 weeks of NICU for my son. Cost me $0 In the USA... It would cost about the same as a family home. Just for a normal C section. I cannot believe they actually charge the mother $350 to hold the baby for a very brief moment after the initial check over, wipe down and attach heart/breathing rate monitor sensor pads/ and wrapping them up. It's literally 1 to 2 mins or less, due to the urgency of the mother needing to be put full under full Anaesthesia for the rest of the surgery instead of just the spinal epidural for the birth. That's also not a standard American procedure, being conscious for the birth and having the father/birth partner present. That is a extra expense and "privilege" That is added into the costs. Then there is the cost of the baby's care in NICU. The most expensive costs out of all the countries with the lowest positive outcome and overall experience. Unreal
As an American, they made sure to punish peaceful protests, ignore reform and make the cruelty of CEOs legal, so there are very few options left for real change.
Most cohesive take I've read so far. It's too bad however that the CEOs of public companies are employees. They're subject to the limits of authority as defined by the board of directors who in turn represent the investors' expectations that the company will maximise the returns on their investments. IMO nobody should have been put in his position in the first place. He's a scapegoat for the system and a victim of murder. That said I have not looked into what might have been in his limited power to prevent this from happening... High pay comes with high risks/responsibility in balancing the interests of many stakeholders.
As an American, I'm much more okay with CEO's living in constant, unabated fear of random acts of violence than us citizens who simply are trying to survive. God Bless the USA though right?
US citizen here. I would very much like to copy paste many elements of your society onto ours. As far as attacks getting more focused, I don't know, but I will say that there is likely not a more popular man in America than the United Assassin. But not a hollow dancing popularity. More like he is everyone's favorite cousin. I think it may come as a shock to many Americans, as we start to realize that those in power here, should be far more afraid of us than we are of them. The anger may finally be going vertical instead of horizontal.
I would also highlight that this assassination actually changed insurance coverage policies that likely would have killed people. So, you know, it worked. Things rarely work like that.
@@jazzman7842 From what I understand another insurer was set to implement a policy where if your surgery ran longer than projected they would not cover the cost of the anaesthetic neccessary to complete the procedure. After the shooting they halted the implementation of this policy.
Not something anyone should be cheering for. Vertical also has a down option too. Randoms getting mistaken for someone else. Are we all to shrug our shoulders and say "cannot make an omelete without breaking a few eggs"?. People should not be condoning this. Because this will happen. Cause these nuts are not rational. They function on rage.
The Mexico/US border at San Diego has a dedicated medical lane for people going from US to Mexico for medical treatment. There’s so many horror stories for people being denied medical insurance for cancer and life saving surgeries after they have been paying faithfully for years to the insurance company. Also Finland has the best practice for helping homeless people get into housing and they say if they have somewhere to live it’s obviously far easier to find work with a homebase. Even Australia does have a growing homelessness crisis.
Pick me up some Vyvanse and Estradiol while you're there. They just dont have my ADHD meds at all for weeks, and docs would only give me 1/3 of the estrogen my body needs.
He’s pretty much jordies, but instead of a TH-cam channel he’s got a suppressed pistol. If you read any of the comments on any content related to this, there’s a grand total of 3 people who are upset (on the entire internet). From a psychological and sociological pov, the guy has made the western world break bad with his character evolutions, just like Brian C did. - he makes you love the bad guy. What’s even more interesting, is how spooked all governments and titans of industry are. I mean, yes one expects them all to be very concerned. But they legitimately know that if they don’t make an example out of him, 10 others will step forward. Talk about a rock and a hard place for investors. If they find him and prosecute, the public will make him a martyr and lose even more confidence
We've found a uniquely American solution to a uniquely American problem. I think we need to continue solving these problems because it got the other insurance to back down from not paying for anesthesia if our surgeries go on for too long. And weirdly, our insurance is suddenly giving full coverage!
What I think is astounding is the amount of Republicans who are mad at Matt Walsh and Ben Shapiro and all these other talkingheads that are defending the CEO? They're so in up their own @r$e that they can't figure out THEY are the ones who are inconsistent, instead of someone like Matt Walsh? How are you gonna defend every amoral billionaire EXCEPT the healthcare CEO?
On your question about "Why is there a lot of politically motivated violence in America lately and less random killings?": There are still random shootings, you just don't hear about it because it's not national headlines anymore. After 25 years of what seems like a school shooting every year, we are numb and apathetic. Political violence gets broadcasted because we're used to the random killings, and now more Americans are invested in politics than ever, not to mention the divide in attitudes across the political spectrum here regarding these shootings. The hard right loves political violence unless it's their own guy getting shot at. They openly train militias and want to overthrow the government and replace it with a theocratic dictatorship, but they keep winning elections so if they rise up against institutions, they are just hurting their own politicians. All the centrists care about is money so they have no idea why everyone else is angry when they keep winning in crypto, stocks, or whatever glorified casino they are into, and if they aren't winning they gaslight themselves into thinking that everything is fine and it's actually really cool and good that they are down thousands. They pearl clutch at violence, but don't really care and just vote for whichever party wasn't in office. The hard left ALSO wants a revolution but struggles to organize. Across the spectrum, there's a general feeling of hopelessness regarding elections. Everyone knows politicians are bought and paid for. They don't even try to hide it anymore.
It feels like we are all NPCs in a game where the player has gotten totally sick of playing it. So, now they're bored they have turned on all the disasters, wars, fire, cranked the difficulty to stupidly impossible and let it all burn 😃 Great content, keep up the good work!
It’s okay to praise the Medicare in this country however I don’t see any criticism of the removal of bulk billing from majority of family doctors over the pandemic and also Medicare/bulk billing removed their cover for mental health appointments over the pandemic. THEY REMOVED MENTAL HEALTH CARE DURING A TIME WHEN IT WAS NEEDED THE MOST. It hasn’t returned either to the way it was. We keep heading down this road and in a couple decades we will be America mate or at least have similar healthcare.
Bulk billing is a choice of the provider not the government; racgp has been doing its internal push of you don't earn enough thus increase your prices after both federal governments froze the mbs payment indexation. Racgp has been saying how financially hard it is for gps, whilst increasing there membership fees to the point of having an ever increasing surplus. They need to get rid of gp corporates and go back to owner operator style practices, bulk billing will then start to increase again.
"It’s okay to praise the Medicare in this country" - No, it really isn't... Inefficient, unsustainable, overburdened and incredibly expensive and that's before you take into account that Medicare is the hinge pin of socialist creep, along with the rest of the welfare state.
@@maxd5007 - Tony Abbott froze medicare payments - the costs kept rising and doctors had to recover those somehow. This is 100% government caused. Medicare used to cover it all, then Abbot wanted to charge a $5 co-pay, the opposition blocked that - so he froze the benefits instead. Now a visit to the doctor costs $86 and medicare reimburses $43. Meaning a doctors visit takes $43 out of a pensioners pocket. Tony Abbot did that. Not the Doctor.
@@Charlie1776_that wat u tell ur prison inmate pals as they plow u and laugh at ur social media comments that got u imprisoned by the Aussie government?
American here - it all comes down to campaign finance and term limits. Our system is set up to legalize corruption and buy politicians. There’s no incentive to legislate or act for the greater good.
@spartanx9293 it's really not the same though. While vested interests are a problem here, the scale is vastly different. Nowhere in the west is up there with the US in how disconnected politics is and just how much vested money drives it. Tbh the biggest interference in our politics comes from the US government.
@@jamestk5079 you literally have a government that actively medals in the lives of its citizens and treats them as if they were 5 year olds your government literally tried to ban organized protest and several state governments are bought out by coal companies don't go judging the us when you have your own problems to fix if you can't even protect your own citizens right to freedom of speech you have no business criticizing
I've seen a lot of people saying "American problems require American solutions" or something similar when talking about the CEO. That's how much of a complicated nightmare our healthcare is.
Jordies is like a fine 90’s grunge song, full of melancholic optimism. A positive tune with depressing lyrics. And yes the hipster irony is strong in this one. Jordies should have a craft beer named ‘My Firebomb was nothing… hold my beer’ (Random fact: The word hipster started in Australia because we called low rise jeans ‘hipster pants’ in the mid-nineties because they sat on ya hips. You can still see the effects on our Bonds Underwear which have ‘hipster’ undies that sit low on the hips to this day.)
inb4 Americans saying "your healthcare isn't free because you pay taxes!" like that's somehow a bad thing i pay a few grand a year in taxes and don't have a $100k medical bill for a papercut...
Over all cost of living vs taxes vs income, vs what they pay in tax vs us, we pay less than them and have extremely cheap education, cleaner air, water and food, "free schooling" if you're under 18. A degree isn't going to put you into debt for life and neither is nearly dying, so all in all we have the better deal than the dumpster fire healthcare that America has, where you pay thousands every year, to get nothing towards insurance only for them to decide the profit they'll make from not giving you the care you need, is acceptable. 1/3 claims rejected by the company that CEO worked for.... Imagine the uproar if that happened here. It's just a normal day in the USA to die because your provider likes money. American: "But but but I don't want my taxes to go up" Mhmmm
I think the best way to put it is that Australia has "comic book super villains". The United States has actual super villains. That is the sad difference. Canada and Australia are far more civil. Despite our terrible things we still don't even come close to what they do.
I don't know why people fixate on the Firebombing incident when it's not a refutation the point Jordon trying to make. Yes, journalists that goes against criminal organizations bound get harassed by them, but the amount desperation and criminality that is imposed upon the American people by the political and economic system is genuinely insane. I am a from third world country even here the general system is far more humane than in United States.
@@Brimfarm 10 hours ago - A woman whose body was found wrapped in plastic and dumped in bushes near Sydney airport . 19 Nov 2024 - Human remains found at the waste management facility in Dandenong 2nd December Seven suspected homicides across Melbourne in less than a week . 5 days ago - A diagnosed schizophrenic has been charged with murder following the death of his carer in Melbourne's west Yeah much more Civil in Australia
It is easier to find fresh veggies and unprocessed foods in the third world than in major American cities. Whole economy seems cooked towards making people sick, unless one opts into fighting wars overseas.
As an American, I think the thing with the assassinations becoming more specific with their targets comes from the two party system we have, for the fact that each party thinks that every loss is a malicious slighting of their goals
idk, so far in the American political climate a lot of assassination attempts are of figures who are conversative (or conservative leaning/backing) who are attempted by conservatives themselves (we know this for trump but we gotta wait on the ceo guy).
American here, we are reaching the point where it's become so transparent our votes are for red and blue reskins of the same thing with deviations on social/bathroom bill issues only pretty much. The vectors for changing things are so few and I guess it's so mask off atp
As an American who knows fuck-all about my own country, I think it has to do with a general desensitization to “tragedy”. Fairly rapidly, the past 3 generations of children have been exposed to foreign beheadings, local school shootings, economic collapse, rapid inflation, and wild fires, among other horrific events *practically* every single day. Every week we see a catalyst for World War III, or Civil War II without the commitment of warfare. We’ve reached a breaking point. I don’t think I know a single person today, who hasn’t considered doing what The Adjuster did to any other inhumane high-class corpse.
I'm Canadian and I care a lot about Americans because you are our neighbours and because, as a French Canadian who grew up on the border, I remember that while Anglo Canadians have treated us like inconvenient pest, Americans have treated us like their friends. In my opinion, The Adjuster was an evetuality. Your people have given ample time for the governement, justice system and for corporations to change and stop living off your deaths and misery. They have all proven that they are not interested in negotiating and forced people to take things into their own hands. No matter what happens in the next few years, my heart is with the American people. America is the country that normalized citizenship being about where you are born, not your ancestry. America made it international law to protect refugees. American workers won and normalized the 40 hour week and the weekend. Americans have the gumption to fight back corporation: it's in your History.
@Dekubud all those wonderful tidbits about America? Trump wants to undo them, it’s straight up on the checklist (yes including birthright citizenship.) It is completely out of pocket what could happen here on January 20th.
Since the beginning 🇺🇸 is a hyper-capitalist oligarchical culture like nowhere on Earth, It's sent all of 🇺🇸 nuts. 🇺🇸 pretends to be heroes but are really Earth's "final boss". See my playlists.
Canadians are pretty neat, they're just other americans to me! I remember back in school they'd use to kind of paint it like we're neighbors, so canada is our greatest ally right? And while i still believe that even though i'm really not political anymore haha (some stuff kinda sticks with you) it is a shame that governments are not just "friendly and there to help you" But people wise canadians are pretty cool.
I’m a health insurance broker, I help people reduce their costs of their policies by cutting out stupid stuff like pregnancy off their covers (no idea how many elderly people are paying for that, it’s astounding) and I don’t think many people appreciate how hard my job is because of how good our public healthcare is. You can get essentially 90% of operations you would need for free, if not under $1000 just simply by waiting, the level of care you get is generally the best in the world and again, typically free. The only people I talk to are people who don’t have it and just found out they have to wait three years for an operation or pay like $30k, or they’ve had it their entire lives and rare change funds. There’s a saying in our industry; “If you can sell health insurance in Australia, you can sell anything anywhere” and despite all of this, I f$@king love Medicare, and I would fight to the death to defend it, we are so lucky to live in this country, we really have no idea.
Private health insurance rarely provides full $ coverage for hospital procedures in Australia It's a combination of Medicare funding, private health insurance payouts & patient out of pocket expenses not covered by Medicare or private health insurance payments Unfortunately some Medicare rebates are much lower than what private health professionals charge, especially in the case of anaesthetists & surgeons I'm all for the very best surgeons charging whatever they think is fair, especially in the modern era of lawsuits There should probably be harsher punishments for malpractice & sub standard care, though Australia is desperate for more health professionals given ageing & increasing population The other brilliant part of Australian private health insurance is that waiting periods are generally a maximum of 1 year for almost every health condition, even if it's a pre-existing condition, health insurers in Australia can not refuse to provide coverage This is vastly different to the USA where pre-existing conditions are routinely excluded from health insurance policies The USA has been a sick & unfair society from the very beginning, probably always will be. Let's try to keep Australia at least a little bit less crap than USA & UK
@ Medicare actually contributes a portion of operations under private health, but the private health companies actually cover quite a lot. I listen to customers tell me tales daily of their health funds covering tens of thousands of dollars for their operations, my dad personally paid around $3500 over a year and it saved him $78k. I know it’s cool to hate on health insurance lately, but it’s worth noting that the difference between what we get in Australia versus America is night and day Not to say you don’t get horror stories, but 70% of them are caused by the customer not doing their due diligence and checking their cover to see if they are covered for things they need still. At the end of the day health funds are businesses, they exist to make a profit, even the non for profit funds, but they will still save you tens of thousands of dollars in the right situations.
Cool to hate on health insurance ... OMG .... now Ive heard it all I can’t believe you can use “insurance broker” and “help” in the same sentence without opening a portal to the underworld. I’m on the most basic private insurance plan, and I’m still shelling out well over $200 a month for my family. Maybe you could have a chat with your boss... oh wait, I mean SATAN !!!... and see if U can get me a better deal? Willing to pull my pants down a little more so u can get some purchase before slamming it in. Honestly, I don’t even care how tough your job is. Just let us know when they raise the premiums again, so I can brace myself for the next financial gut punch that u demon spawn think is so helpful
@ typical uninformed idiot comment. 1. A broker doesn’t work FOR health funds, they work WITh health funds and just compare options for your price and level of cover and offer a cheaper one. 2. If you don’t like paying $200 a month then cancel it and pay pretty much the same in tax or tens of thousands of dollars when you have an accident anyway genius hahah 3. Keep your pants on and contact a broker and maybe if you’re not as much of a wanker as you’re being now, they may want to help you. 4. Prices go up 1st April EVERY YEAR, it’s common knowledge, it’s called CPI. 5. I keep a tally of money I save per day, today I saved $2789 across three policies, and get paid more than you do in the process, it’s a good life.
I had no insurance and wanted a surgery done. Public wait times were equivalent to or longer than buying private insurance and waiting out the year and I was warned I may get a surgeon who wasn't highly skilled which would mean more risk factors. So I waited and it cost me about $3k including a year of insurance. Not bad really.
My mates were staying at the same hostel as the assasin when the killing took place, and they stayed on the allegdly same floor as him. They were contacted by police after the incident but they didn't really chase them up.

@SambucaMilkshakeI'm not sure that was his point. Yes, the unhomed problem in Australia is a massive issue that everyone should be taking very seriously, but the base level of care that an Australian citizen has is at least marginally better than that of a US citizen. I think his jabs were more in line with the absolute wealth inequality that you see in places like LA vs. Sydney. What I took from his snarky criticism of the US unhomed problem vs. The Aussie unhomed problem was that in Australia, at least, the unhomed folks can go to a hospital (and can't get access to loads of weapons), while in America, it's cheaper and easier to buy a pistol and a silencer than it is to even get a check up at the clinic. And that says nothing about the level of hoops the average American has to go through just to *get* a practitioner in their service network. If you're not American, did you know that even if you have health insurance, not every doctor accepts your specific insurance? So, even if you're paying $600 a month for private insurance, you might not have a doctor within a 60 mile radius that will even see you? And that's not to mention the wait lists for specialists out here. AND none of that is to mention that your insurance company can just deny you coverage if they feel like it. Another "fun fact" about American healthcare: Did you know dental isn't covered by insurance companies for doctor's, so you need a second insurance plan to see a dentist? Same goes for optometrists. Same hoops apply, where even if you have insurance, your local dentist might not accept it, so you have to drive 1-2 hours just to see someone who your insurance covers. Last "fun fact": Our insurance, on average, is more costly that ANY other developed country's Medicare equivalent to both the citizens and the government. We are litteraly paying a premium to have worse coverage, care, and standards of living in the pursuit of the free market.

I think nearly everyone is thinking about that UnitedHealthcare assassination wrong people shouldn't be thinking "haha dead money grubbing leech" or "he was murdered in cold blood and your LAUGHING" they should instead be thinking "who benefits from his death the most and what kind of creature will replace him" I also have a feeling they may never find the actual guy who shot him, they will find someone but it wont be the guy who actually did it
true, but as some other people pointed out, it may be the beginning of revolution in america. the fact that people are satisfied with his death suggest that america is verginig upon a tipping point that will topple 250 years of american institution. but what will replace it is up in the air.
I'm thinking: "A CEO finally reaped what he sowed." And I agree, it doesn't solve the bigger issue. However, it does send a double message: people are fed up with those building immense fortune off the blood of the powerless and if the governement and the law aren't going to protect people from the most prolific criminals in the country, then people will take things into their own hands. Edit: Forgot to add that no matter if they catch the actual guy, I think a jury woukd have to be composed of nothing but CEOs for the man to be found guilty lol

American here- when peaceful progress is impossible (and retaliated with violence), then violence becomes inevitable. we are more and more fed up, more and more exploited, with less and less to lose. the shame of living in a country where we plead (and pay) for those in control to heal our sick, feed our hungry, home our houseless, give basic care to our citizens, as the point of it all should be, and instead that capital that WE generate and contribute to either by labor or taxes or fees or premiums or purchases all goes to lining pockets and building weapons and ruining lives around the world? Aggression seems to be the only language this country has ever spoken. In a just system we would need no vigilantes. This is not a just system, we must stay grounded in the reality of our conditions. I pray not a single exploitative executive ever knows peace for the rest of their lives, I pray they live in a fear worse than ours.

He walked away scot-free, back in China, walking around no problem. I guess nothing bad happens in Australia, right? I know, I know, he's unapologetically pro his certain party, but the blinders are starting to show guys.
The videos of people liberating the many horrific prisons that were in use makes me think that this new guy might, just potentially, be better than what he's replacing.
Abe's assassination was related to his wife supporting that weird cult, which had ruined the assassin's mother's life. The cult itself has an interesting political flavor, but even that didn't seem like it was on the assailant's radar.
The whole 'he crashed' story came from a flight radar track of a Syrian IL-76 that flew from Damascus Airport over Homs towards the Russian airbase in Latakia as Rebels started breaching the Damascus perimeter, and the radar showed a massive deceleration, loss of altitude, and then loss of signal over Homs which was captured by the anti-regime forces and could have very easily gained access to anti-aircraft capability left by the regime troops, or a IDF F-35 wanted its first air-to-air kill. That area does have GPS jamming and always has, but what got people excited was the fact the flight trail showed a loss of altitude and loss of speed rather than a dissapearing signal. There was also a few other smaller private jets running the gauntlet between Damascus and Saudi Arabia, but nobody knew if he was on the plane or not, and now nobody, including Homs locals, seem to be able to confirm if the IL-76 actually dropped out of the sky or made it to Latakia, and if so, was Assad on that plane or not.
the tents is literally the gold coast. More cars than tents at this point, but there's a park in Southport full of meth heads in tents that for some reason don't get moved along.

I was in the U.S. earlier and this year and met someone in a bar with a concealed carry from Atlanta trying to convince me how quickly the Bondi Junction stabbings would have been resolved if we had guns to defend ourselves :D
Actually he’s not overly wrong in states with ‘open carry’ you’re safer in those bars. No one has the courage to kick off when you know they’re armed too. I’m an Australian and I’m not advocating it but he has a point.
He was absolutely correct even worse when authorities carry firearms supposedly trained to use them and then don't. Read the Port Arthur history. You can instead feel safe in your next home invasion because the Police will no doubt turn up in time to carry out an arrest, after your 3G phone doesn't work on 000.
@@SirBigzalot I get what you're saying but it only works so long as all the people carrying are actually sane and well adjusted human beings, and it's not always easy to tell who is and who isn't, and things can happen that will drive even the most calm and well adjusted person over the edge, humans are just like that. Especially in a setting where alcohol is involved, I dunno if I'd trust anyone with a gun.

Im really glad that you said that Australia was built better governmentaly rather than saying the US's guns were the problem. It's your classic. "Guns don't kill people. People kill people." As an American gun lover, I can understand the pushback against guns and understand why the pushback exists, but too many people immediately blame the gun owners and the fact we are allowed to own guns rather than the facts about the reason a person had used guns in an awful way and we were built on the ideal that any of our oppressors should be met with force. Every FriendlyJordies video I see makes me like this man more and more.
As an American, your interpretation is spot-on and made me laugh too, thank you. It's a weird time here (I say that like there are normal times here but I promise they do happen), but the fact that people of all different beliefs/positions are coming together does give me some hope. That's what we all really need, no matter what country we live in, class solidarity and hope.
Well, we do have 334 million people to your 26.65 million, so it is 10 times as many people. We also have 90 people per square mile to your 3 per square mile, which would be more like you having 30 times more likely interacts between people with 10 times the total amount of people, so 300 of those events per the last 120 months would be likely. Now, cities, where that happened, do have a maximum general density to them, but the US does have several cities that are far denser than Australia's while we also have other well know factors to consider on violent crime, like education, poverty, and nutrition that we could quantify to adjust this, but with us both being developed nations in similar trade statues and have healthy economies that export similar resources (with the exception of timber and oil that the US is exporting that you don't have), those are approximately equal to each other other than poverty and one other: gun access. The US has more gun access and a higher rate of poverty. So, we have more gun crime, but it isn't crazy higher than it really seems to be than the number we already have here This is all back of the napkin, but it really would be looking like, 2.5 times that of Australia is what we are looking at. That's for mass shootings that make the national news and stick in the memory for 10 years, which does sound about right, actually. The Las Vegas Concert Shooting shooting and the Pulse Nightclub shooting would be the two that come to mind initially that I think of. There are a lot that could be a third.
I randomly googled California last week, and there just happened to be a school shooting the day before in the news, stood out to me, not them though, and that's just normal. It's mental.
Yep I've said for years that they try to pull some disarmament psyop at least 4 times a year over there. Surely the (((powers that be))) aren't actually stupid enough to think that Americans will surrender their guns. It's too ingrained in their culture. As it should have been for us
@@KnightsWithoutATablethe one fact that nullifies your entire comment is Port Arthur happened in 1996, when I was 3 years old. We as a country made a decision to end the open ownership of firearms and surrendered everything we didn’t have a licence for. We have had ONE such incident since, in almost 30 years. How does any of your justification make up for the fact that it happens so regularly, even if your country is 10 times the size of our population, the rate of mass shootings has to be 1 in thousands
As a doctor in Australia, I am so afraid that we are slowly creeping towards the US. Thankfully, at the moment, it's only at the level of BUPA throwing its toys out of the cot. I tend to amaze American friends by telling them a private (no medicare rebate) MRI brain over here costs about $300 AUD.
Meanwhile over 50 million homes and apartments are sitting empty. The problem isn't resources, it's morals. States want to regulate my fckin uterus but my hamburgers, that's govt overreach, even after onions in several McDonalds were found to have e coli contamination and killed someone's grandma
I swear they put the same stuff thats in those weight loss drinks in Snickers. Its the only candy bar where I feel the same kind of 'full' I get from those things
As someone is lower class (despite making $20/hr, crazy shit right?) I had to sell $3000 worth of audio equipment to get an X-ray, ultrasound and blood tests because of an already known calcium deposit on my chest. I’ve found out about it and got all of these tests previously, I have to say around 6 years ago. And I come in for a checkup, and the doctor was very stern on getting more tests done due to his “worry” for it. Well tl;dr my doctor charged me $3000 (after itemization) because of a worry that was already known about and accounted for. I could’ve refused, yes, but he was stern about it; showed true worry, which in turn makes me worried. I’d like to say I trust my doctor, but insurance didn’t even cover ANY of it because it wasnt considered “life-saving”. People need to wake up and push for a full reformation of our healthcare industry.
You do remember how that ended, right? The French Revolution wasn't just one Revolution, it was actually closer to 15 revolutions, as each new government of rebels got their heads cut off by the news rebel government. And it all ended with one guy taking over and claiming himself Emperor, and then took over most of Europe. And installed his family members as the new ruling families in those conquered nations. Everyone always points to the French Revolution about what should be done. No one ever remembers that it basically was a failure because they ended up with someone just as bad sitting on their now rebuilt thrown.
@@Targe0 you realize we could probably do a lot better now, considering its the information age and not pre-lightbulb, even if people are stupid we are a lot more educated than we were 300 years ago
@@circleinforthecube5170 And that doesn't stop the problem that was at play there. As the problem with violent revolutions is, it tells a people that the solution to your problem is to kill the ones causing the problem. Which means that when the new government runs into problems and people get upset that the revolution didn't end exactly how they wanted it to. They go with the option that just worked for them. And that cycle keeps going until either a better system gets made, or as is the most common one, someone with a strong enough military force takes over instead. It's why so many peoples rebellions end up falling into military dictatorships. As the people you want to topple a nation are not the ones you then want to lead it. But they tend to end up being the ones who lead it. @ArcaniIgnis It wasn't them at the start of the French Revolution, but after they took out basically all the upper classes, they turned on each other over control of who would lead the new nation. They killed off dozens of Government leaders from the rebellion. Simply because they didn't like their leadership style. And again those rebellions ended up making a new nobility instead. As they literally crowned Napoleón Emperor. Who was functionally just a moderday military dictatorship.
Important to note that Australia’s relative safety and lack of social issues compared to the states can be attributed to cultural/ historical/ geographical factors and institutions such as Medicare rather than over policing. Also worth mentioning that over policing, constant erosion of liberties and growing wealth centralisation/ inequality are pushing Australia closer to the American experience…
As an American that left the US and immigrated to Australia 12 years ago, I cannot express in words how grateful I am to be in Australia and not have to deal with that completely messed up system. Please Aussies, do not let the healthcare system drift towards the US model. Taxes suck, but at least you can say that some of them are keeping Australia from spiralling like the US.
I’m an Aussie ex-pat living in the US for 20+ years. The only thing I’d point out here is that the “6 people stabbed” definitely is in the news in the more local and mid level news. In a country the size of the USA with ~345 million people, 13 times the size of Australia, with some metropolitan areas with a similar population, you can bet you don’t see the same type of news. Not making excuses for the violence here, just pointing out that “headlines” don’t cover all of this stuff.

syrian here. been in egypt since 2013. let me chime in a little bit. if the syrian situation baffles you and want a brief summary on what the hell is going on then watch the syrian people reaction to this major event. everyone is celebrating. across the whole nation. this should give you an idea about what type of regime was in power. after the god aweful racist and sectarianist era the assad has reigned over, me and many other syrians are not keen on allowing a similar regime to take place. syria won't be afghanistan 2.0 because teh syrian society is deeply different
That has been my response to people asking if this is a good thing for Syria. It only takes one look at the reaction of the people of Syria to see that, regardless of what comes next, they are relieved to be rid of the scum that was the Assad regime. I am not under the illusion that Al-Jolani doesn't intend to turn Syria into an Islamic state, the hope is that he will do so while instituting some of the basic civil liberties and religious freedoms that he has been intimating that he will.
4:45 My two cents is that over two decades of school shootings and arbitrarily killings by both police and civilians have normalized that kind of extreme violence to the point that someone considering an assassination isn't immediately overruled by the rational part of their brain on the grounds of such an act being impossible to carry out or even just meaningless. After all, if some kid can unalive 20 people while the cops twiddle their thumbs outside, why can't you off that ceo or politician? Basically, i just see it as the end result of a long process of normalizing extreme acts of violence that is only just now starting to affect the upper classes.
Funny thing is, they’re trying to paint the exact same picture of rising anti-semitism in my home country The Netherlands. When a bunch of Israeli hooligans started to tear down Amsterdam and there was a counter-reaction from the citizens. So quickly headlines popped up everywhere comparing these events to 1940’s levels of antisemitism, it’s so transparent what they’re trying to achieve but I fear it’s working

As someone who had a head on accident in July, it took me 1.5 months to get a Dr appointment, another 1.5 months to get an X-ray, and I won't get the consultation for an MRI in January. Healthcare workers are quitting in mass which besides privatized healthcare is causing many people to suffer. Even with insurance; which I have. I don't blame the guy one bit
You talked about your bad track record with predicting the future. I think it's important to remember that even professional analysts, in whatever industry they may work in, also are often wrong. But the value in their analysis is not predicting the future, but to recognize and speak about risks and opportunities. A good military analyst for example, should never say "this is what's going to happen". What they should say is "these are the things that can possibly happen , this is the context that created them, these are the advantages and disadvantages of each of these possibilities occurring, and these are the variables that we understand to be within our control". So don't worry about predicting the future. Just focus on what could happen, what you want to happen, and why. If people really want to go in depth on these issues, another suggestion I would make is to look at what actually occurred and to ask do they match your predictions? If they don't, why not? Is it because your vision of the future was just way off base, or is it because other people identified the same risks as you and made an effort to avoid those outcomes? And even more importantly, if you were right in your prediction you need to ask questions that check how much you were right. For example, were you right but wrong in some way? Did someone miss an opportunity or not see a risk that you did? Even when on a surface level you were right, how is what you actually said in the moment different from the reality that occurred? Because no matter how clairvoyant you feel you may have been, you will always have gotten many things wrong.

I am an American diabetic who has been having absolute hell trying to get my medication since having to switch to United Healthcare after changing jobs. Two days after the assassination, my prior authorization FINALLY went through.
I wonder how many items were actioned in the next few days after that.
For the non-Americans, a prior-authorization is when your doctor prescribes a medication they believe you require, your insurance then says they won’t cover it because you don’t require this medication, and then your doctor has to write them a letter saying “I’m a doctor, they need this medication”🙃.
United healthcare uses AI to deny claims so basically everything a doctor may say you need your insurance will then require your doctor to write a letter saying you need it.
Oh, and if it’s a treatment or medication which requires prior authorization you cannot get it covered unless you get the letter BEFORE receiving the medication/treatment. This means you may need to delay your medication or treatment, as well as possibly needing additional appointments for $100-$200+ a pop
Cause and effect? Are we living in a movie?
Just you wait until these CEOs start hiring private security and cost that out to the company... double the claims will be rejected.
People are rising up against the wrong people.
Nobody should target the CEOs, they will just be replaced or hire armed security.
Get angry at your politicians and government.
They are the ultimate cause of your health care mess.
Also, very glad to hear you got what you need 👍
I hope the delay didn't cause you too many issues.
Back in 2016, the lady from my parents' congregation who used to babysit my sister and I was at the end of a difficult pregnancy and her son was born about ten days early. That's not a huge problem nowadays, he just had to spend a few days in the NICU. HIS SECOND DAY ON EARTH THE NURSE WHO HAD BEEN ON DUTY FOR 16 HOURS OVER FED HIM AND BURST HIS INTESTINES!!!! He was rushed into surgery but only lived another 2 days, thanks to a massive infection. Afterwards the hospital tried to bill the insurance EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS for the baby they killed which their insurance UNC refused to cover BC THE FAMILY HADN'T GIVEN THEM HIS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND INSTEAD LET THE BILL GO TO COLLECTIONS!!!! THIS WOMEN WAS ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED OVER LOSING HER BABY AND THE DAY AFTER HIS FUNERAL SHE STARTED GETTING PHONE CALLS FROM DEBT COLLECTORS! The hospital had also tried to get her to sign a pathetically small settlement when her husband was at work (yup couldn't take any more time off work or he'd risk losing that amazing healthcare coverage 🙄) that wouldn't even cover what she'd spent on her healthcare to have the baby they killed, much less anything's else. That's why everyone cheered the death of this evil man. Same if had been the CEO of a hospital chain.
Luigi is the Karma Police! 👮🏻♂️
We need more of them in the beat!
🎶 This is what you get … when you mess with us!” 🎶
Just one of many, many horrible stories.
Damn that is messed up.
Aussie here 3 years ago I had a pregnancy with a condition called Placenta Previa Acreata. Basically the placenta attaches itself to the bottom of the womb blocking the birth canal and poses a huge risk of rupture which is a life threatening situation, aka similar seriousness of bleeding that of cutting your jugular or femoral artery. Aka 15 mins to death. Unconsciousness to brain dead in 10-12.
So the birth needs to be a C section with a hysterectomy, to stop the hemorrhaging.
However the more complex part is the separating where the placenta has grown into/attached. In most cases it's just the womb/ embryonic sac, vaginal walls. And in less fortunate situations like mine, the bladder and parental unknown areas due to both Ultrasounds, and MRI were unable to clearly tell what they were expecting beforehand.
Now I had literally a room full of obstetricians, radiologists, anaesthesiologist, Trauma team for the blood recovery/recycling machine and urologists. There was 8 of the best Drs in South Australia. All hashing out the delivery...when, where, who, what, before informing us of the time, day, location. (We knew that the likelyhood of having to change to a different hospital due to them having the better facilities for this kind of surgery.
Now once we went over the procedure, were explained the whole process, what to expect, etc and of course risk factors etc.
Most cases is baby born prematurely at 34-36 weeks. Baby is fine besides standard premature baby health eg, lungs need steroids to promote them developing completely. And birth weight brought upto full term size.
Baby is no more at risk than any other C section, premature birth. Extremely low mortality rate.
Mother's mortality rate, is 13% but that is an average including old data from when we didn't have the technology and experience we have now
It's more about 5 to 7%.
This Average is the same in UK, France, Germany. Canada
The USA however....
Although they have the equipment and knowledge.
They have a maternal mobility rate similar to 3rd world countries. With 30 to 45% only using recent 15-20 years of data. The 45% is typically People of colour or Hispanic who have a lowered recovery rate. But that is a huge % for a Wealthy and medically well equipped country. They also have ample supply of donor blood, unlike the other countries who have similar %
Now considering I had the best of the best Drs fighting over who gets to do the procedure,
A whole room full of the best of each field.
It took the Dr.. an extra 5.5hrs and 5lts of blood 3.5 ltd of my own Blood recycled and 2lts of donor to stop the bleeding and remove the uterus and ruptured placenta.
9 days post op, including my own room (ICU then on ward, in the acute recovery room opposite the nurses) Plus several appointments for wound care and check up afterwards.
Plus 8 weeks of NICU for my son.
Cost me $0
In the USA... It would cost about the same as a family home. Just for a normal C section. I cannot believe they actually charge the mother $350 to hold the baby for a very brief moment after the initial check over, wipe down and attach heart/breathing rate monitor sensor pads/ and wrapping them up. It's literally 1 to 2 mins or less, due to the urgency of the mother needing to be put full under full Anaesthesia for the rest of the surgery instead of just the spinal epidural for the birth.
That's also not a standard American procedure, being conscious for the birth and having the father/birth partner present. That is a extra expense and "privilege"
That is added into the costs.
Then there is the cost of the baby's care in NICU.
The most expensive costs out of all the countries with the lowest positive outcome and overall experience.
Unreal

Most cohesive take I've read so far. It's too bad however that the CEOs of public companies are employees. They're subject to the limits of authority as defined by the board of directors who in turn represent the investors' expectations that the company will maximise the returns on their investments. IMO nobody should have been put in his position in the first place. He's a scapegoat for the system and a victim of murder. That said I have not looked into what might have been in his limited power to prevent this from happening...

US citizen here. I would very much like to copy paste many elements of your society onto ours.

More like he is everyone's favorite cousin. I think it may come as a shock to many Americans, as we start to realize that those in power here, should be far more afraid of us than we are of them. The anger may finally be going vertical instead of horizontal.
I would also highlight that this assassination actually changed insurance coverage policies that likely would have killed people. So, you know, it worked. Things rarely work like that.

On your question about "Why is there a lot of politically motivated violence in America lately and less random killings?": There are still random shootings, you just don't hear about it because it's not national headlines anymore. After 25 years of what seems like a school shooting every year, we are numb and apathetic. Political violence gets broadcasted because we're used to the random killings, and now more Americans are invested in politics than ever, not to mention the divide in attitudes across the political spectrum here regarding these shootings. The hard right loves political violence unless it's their own guy getting shot at. They openly train militias and want to overthrow the government and replace it with a theocratic dictatorship, but they keep winning elections so if they rise up against institutions, they are just hurting their own politicians. All the centrists care about is money so they have no idea why everyone else is angry when they keep winning in crypto, stocks, or whatever glorified casino they are into, and if they aren't winning they gaslight themselves into thinking that everything is fine and it's actually really cool and good that they are down thousands. They pearl clutch at violence, but don't really care and just vote for whichever party wasn't in office. The hard left ALSO wants a revolution but struggles to organize. Across the spectrum, there's a general feeling of hopelessness regarding elections. Everyone knows politicians are bought and paid for. They don't even try to hide it anymore.

It’s okay to praise the Medicare in this country however I don’t see any criticism of the removal of bulk billing from majority of family doctors over the pandemic and also Medicare/bulk billing removed their cover for mental health appointments over the pandemic. THEY REMOVED MENTAL HEALTH CARE DURING A TIME WHEN IT WAS NEEDED THE MOST. It hasn’t returned either to the way it was. We keep heading down this road and in a couple decades we will be America mate or at least have similar healthcare.
Bulk billing is a choice of the provider not the government; racgp has been doing its internal push of you don't earn enough thus increase your prices after both federal governments froze the mbs payment indexation.
Racgp has been saying how financially hard it is for gps, whilst increasing there membership fees to the point of having an ever increasing surplus.
They need to get rid of gp corporates and go back to owner operator style practices, bulk billing will then start to increase again.
"It’s okay to praise the Medicare in this country" - No, it really isn't...
Inefficient, unsustainable, overburdened and incredibly expensive and that's before you take into account that Medicare is the hinge pin of socialist creep, along with the rest of the welfare state.
This is true. 😢
@@maxd5007 - Tony Abbott froze medicare payments - the costs kept rising and doctors had to recover those somehow. This is 100% government caused. Medicare used to cover it all, then Abbot wanted to charge a $5 co-pay, the opposition blocked that - so he froze the benefits instead. Now a visit to the doctor costs $86 and medicare reimburses $43. Meaning a doctors visit takes $43 out of a pensioners pocket. Tony Abbot did that. Not the Doctor.

Over all cost of living vs taxes vs income, vs what they pay in tax vs us, we pay less than them and have extremely cheap education, cleaner air, water and food, "free schooling" if you're under 18. A degree isn't going to put you into debt for life and neither is nearly dying, so all in all we have the better deal than the dumpster fire healthcare that America has, where you pay thousands every year, to get nothing towards insurance only for them to decide the profit they'll make from not giving you the care you need, is acceptable. 1/3 claims rejected by the company that CEO worked for.... Imagine the uproar if that happened here. It's just a normal day in the USA to die because your provider likes money. American: "But but but I don't want my taxes to go up" Mhmmm
Meanwhile Americans paying for the illusion of healthcare like whole thing sounds like a huge scam.
Also the american privatised healthcare is inefficienct and way more expensive to manage. It has way more administration fees and what not.
As an American: Please smuggle me into your country, I'll happily work hard and pay taxes if it means I get my freedom

American here, we are reaching the point where it's become so transparent our votes are for red and blue reskins of the same thing with deviations on social/bathroom bill issues only pretty much. The vectors for changing things are so few and I guess it's so mask off atp
It's like that in aus, UK and us. Red and blue they are the same except for social and environment.
As an American who knows fuck-all about my own country, I think it has to do with a general desensitization to “tragedy”.
Fairly rapidly, the past 3 generations of children have been exposed to foreign beheadings, local school shootings, economic collapse, rapid inflation, and wild fires, among other horrific events *practically* every single day. Every week we see a catalyst for World War III, or Civil War II without the commitment of warfare.
We’ve reached a breaking point. I don’t think I know a single person today, who hasn’t considered doing what The Adjuster did to any other inhumane high-class corpse.
I'm Canadian and I care a lot about Americans because you are our neighbours and because, as a French Canadian who grew up on the border, I remember that while Anglo Canadians have treated us like inconvenient pest, Americans have treated us like their friends.
In my opinion, The Adjuster was an evetuality. Your people have given ample time for the governement, justice system and for corporations to change and stop living off your deaths and misery. They have all proven that they are not interested in negotiating and forced people to take things into their own hands.
No matter what happens in the next few years, my heart is with the American people.
America is the country that normalized citizenship being about where you are born, not your ancestry. America made it international law to protect refugees. American workers won and normalized the 40 hour week and the weekend.

I’m a health insurance broker, I help people reduce their costs of their policies by cutting out stupid stuff like pregnancy off their covers (no idea how many elderly people are paying for that, it’s astounding) and I don’t think many people appreciate how hard my job is because of how good our public healthcare is. You can get essentially 90% of operations you would need for free, if not under $1000 just simply by waiting, the level of care you get is generally the best in the world and again, typically free. The only people I talk to are people who don’t have it and just found out they have to wait three years for an operation or pay like $30k, or they’ve had it their entire lives and rare change funds.
There’s a saying in our industry; “If you can sell health insurance in Australia, you can sell anything anywhere” and despite all of this, I f$@king love Medicare, and I would fight to the death to defend it, we are so lucky to live in this country, we really have no idea.
Private health insurance rarely provides full $ coverage for hospital procedures in Australia
It's a combination of Medicare funding, private health insurance payouts & patient out of pocket expenses not covered by Medicare or private health insurance payments
Unfortunately some Medicare rebates are much lower than what private health professionals charge, especially in the case of anaesthetists & surgeons
I'm all for the very best surgeons charging whatever they think is fair, especially in the modern era of lawsuits
There should probably be harsher punishments for malpractice & sub standard care, though Australia is desperate for more health professionals given ageing & increasing population
The other brilliant part of Australian private health insurance is that waiting periods are generally a maximum of 1 year for almost every health condition, even if it's a pre-existing condition, health insurers in Australia can not refuse to provide coverage
This is vastly different to the USA where pre-existing conditions are routinely excluded from health insurance policies
The USA has been a sick & unfair society from the very beginning, probably always will be.
Let's try to keep Australia at least a little bit less crap than USA & UK
@ Medicare actually contributes a portion of operations under private health, but the private health companies actually cover quite a lot. I listen to customers tell me tales daily of their health funds covering tens of thousands of dollars for their operations, my dad personally paid around $3500 over a year and it saved him $78k. I know it’s cool to hate on health insurance lately, but it’s worth noting that the difference between what we get in Australia versus America is night and day
Not to say you don’t get horror stories, but 70% of them are caused by the customer not doing their due diligence and checking their cover to see if they are covered for things they need still. At the end of the day health funds are businesses, they exist to make a profit, even the non for profit funds, but they will still save you tens of thousands of dollars in the right situations.
Cool to hate on health insurance ... OMG .... now Ive heard it all
I can’t believe you can use “insurance broker” and “help” in the same sentence without opening a portal to the underworld.
I’m on the most basic private insurance plan, and I’m still shelling out well over $200 a month for my family.
Maybe you could have a chat with your boss... oh wait, I mean SATAN !!!... and see if U can get me a better deal?
Willing to pull my pants down a little more so u can get some purchase before slamming it in.
Honestly, I don’t even care how tough your job is. Just let us know when they raise the premiums again, so I can brace myself for the next financial gut punch that u demon spawn think is so helpful
@ typical uninformed idiot comment.
1. A broker doesn’t work FOR health funds, they work WITh health funds and just compare options for your price and level of cover and offer a cheaper one.
2. If you don’t like paying $200 a month then cancel it and pay pretty much the same in tax or tens of thousands of dollars when you have an accident anyway genius hahah
3. Keep your pants on and contact a broker and maybe if you’re not as much of a wanker as you’re being now, they may want to help you.
4. Prices go up 1st April EVERY YEAR, it’s common knowledge, it’s called CPI.
5. I keep a tally of money I save per day, today I saved $2789 across three policies, and get paid more than you do in the process, it’s a good life.
I had no insurance and wanted a surgery done. Public wait times were equivalent to or longer than buying private insurance and waiting out the year and I was warned I may get a surgeon who wasn't highly skilled which would mean more risk factors. So I waited and it cost me about $3k including a year of insurance. Not bad really.

Wonder if that's the point
@SambucaMilkshake his argument is literally just that you'd actually be able to get into the hospital. That's it.
@SambucaMilkshakeI'm not sure that was his point. Yes, the unhomed problem in Australia is a massive issue that everyone should be taking very seriously, but the base level of care that an Australian citizen has is at least marginally better than that of a US citizen. I think his jabs were more in line with the absolute wealth inequality that you see in places like LA vs. Sydney.
What I took from his snarky criticism of the US unhomed problem vs. The Aussie unhomed problem was that in Australia, at least, the unhomed folks can go to a hospital (and can't get access to loads of weapons), while in America, it's cheaper and easier to buy a pistol and a silencer than it is to even get a check up at the clinic. And that says nothing about the level of hoops the average American has to go through just to *get* a practitioner in their service network.
If you're not American, did you know that even if you have health insurance, not every doctor accepts your specific insurance? So, even if you're paying $600 a month for private insurance, you might not have a doctor within a 60 mile radius that will even see you? And that's not to mention the wait lists for specialists out here. AND none of that is to mention that your insurance company can just deny you coverage if they feel like it.
Another "fun fact" about American healthcare: Did you know dental isn't covered by insurance companies for doctor's, so you need a second insurance plan to see a dentist? Same goes for optometrists. Same hoops apply, where even if you have insurance, your local dentist might not accept it, so you have to drive 1-2 hours just to see someone who your insurance covers.
Last "fun fact": Our insurance, on average, is more costly that ANY other developed country's Medicare equivalent to both the citizens and the government. We are litteraly paying a premium to have worse coverage, care, and standards of living in the pursuit of the free market.
I mean it was only a couple mate 🤣

The whole 'he crashed' story came from a flight radar track of a Syrian IL-76 that flew from Damascus Airport over Homs towards the Russian airbase in Latakia as Rebels started breaching the Damascus perimeter, and the radar showed a massive deceleration, loss of altitude, and then loss of signal over Homs which was captured by the anti-regime forces and could have very easily gained access to anti-aircraft capability left by the regime troops, or a IDF F-35 wanted its first air-to-air kill. That area does have GPS jamming and always has, but what got people excited was the fact the flight trail showed a loss of altitude and loss of speed rather than a dissapearing signal. There was also a few other smaller private jets running the gauntlet between Damascus and Saudi Arabia, but nobody knew if he was on the plane or not, and now nobody, including Homs locals, seem to be able to confirm if the IL-76 actually dropped out of the sky or made it to Latakia, and if so, was Assad on that plane or not.

Im really glad that you said that Australia was built better governmentaly rather than saying the US's guns were the problem. It's your classic. "Guns don't kill people. People kill people." As an American gun lover, I can understand the pushback against guns and understand why the pushback exists, but too many people immediately blame the gun owners and the fact we are allowed to own guns rather than the facts about the reason a person had used guns in an awful way and we were built on the ideal that any of our oppressors should be met with force. Every FriendlyJordies video I see makes me like this man more and more.
As an American, your interpretation is spot-on and made me laugh too, thank you. It's a weird time here (I say that like there are normal times here but I promise they do happen), but the fact that people of all different beliefs/positions are coming together does give me some hope. That's what we all really need, no matter what country we live in, class solidarity and hope.
Bro your BBC Caster accent was so on point I did a double take and I was watching the screen to begin with.
America seems to have a Port Arthur-scale event every other month these days.
Well, we do have 334 million people to your 26.65 million, so it is 10 times as many people. We also have 90 people per square mile to your 3 per square mile, which would be more like you having 30 times more likely interacts between people with 10 times the total amount of people, so 300 of those events per the last 120 months would be likely. Now, cities, where that happened, do have a maximum general density to them, but the US does have several cities that are far denser than Australia's while we also have other well know factors to consider on violent crime, like education, poverty, and nutrition that we could quantify to adjust this, but with us both being developed nations in similar trade statues and have healthy economies that export similar resources (with the exception of timber and oil that the US is exporting that you don't have), those are approximately equal to each other other than poverty and one other: gun access. The US has more gun access and a higher rate of poverty. So, we have more gun crime, but it isn't crazy higher than it really seems to be than the number we already have here
This is all back of the napkin, but it really would be looking like, 2.5 times that of Australia is what we are looking at. That's for mass shootings that make the national news and stick in the memory for 10 years, which does sound about right, actually. The Las Vegas Concert Shooting shooting and the Pulse Nightclub shooting would be the two that come to mind initially that I think of. There are a lot that could be a third.
And just like Port Arthur, it was the feds😊
I randomly googled California last week, and there just happened to be a school shooting the day before in the news, stood out to me, not them though, and that's just normal. It's mental.
Yep I've said for years that they try to pull some disarmament psyop at least 4 times a year over there. Surely the (((powers that be))) aren't actually stupid enough to think that Americans will surrender their guns. It's too ingrained in their culture. As it should have been for us
@@KnightsWithoutATablethe one fact that nullifies your entire comment is Port Arthur happened in 1996, when I was 3 years old. We as a country made a decision to end the open ownership of firearms and surrendered everything we didn’t have a licence for. We have had ONE such incident since, in almost 30 years. How does any of your justification make up for the fact that it happens so regularly, even if your country is 10 times the size of our population, the rate of mass shootings has to be 1 in thousands
Some audio problems
As a doctor in Australia, I am so afraid that we are slowly creeping towards the US. Thankfully, at the moment, it's only at the level of BUPA throwing its toys out of the cot. I tend to amaze American friends by telling them a private (no medicare rebate) MRI brain over here costs about $300 AUD.
There's tents and homeless in front of the Chinese Grumman Theater right on the walk of fame. My country is getting sicker and sicker...
Meanwhile over 50 million homes and apartments are sitting empty. The problem isn't resources, it's morals. States want to regulate my fckin uterus but my hamburgers, that's govt overreach, even after onions in several McDonalds were found to have e coli contamination and killed someone's grandma

As someone is lower class (despite making $20/hr, crazy shit right?) I had to sell $3000 worth of audio equipment to get an X-ray, ultrasound and blood tests because of an already known calcium deposit on my chest.
I’ve found out about it and got all of these tests previously, I have to say around 6 years ago. And I come in for a checkup, and the doctor was very stern on getting more tests done due to his “worry” for it.
Well tl;dr my doctor charged me $3000 (after itemization) because of a worry that was already known about and accounted for.
I could’ve refused, yes, but he was stern about it; showed true worry, which in turn makes me worried.
I’d like to say I trust my doctor, but insurance didn’t even cover ANY of it because it wasnt considered “life-saving”.
People need to wake up and push for a full reformation of our healthcare industry.
As an American I can explain the current situation well, the mind rot of the warp has gotten to us
It's like the "french peasants are gathering up the corrupt royals"
You do remember how that ended, right?
The French Revolution wasn't just one Revolution, it was actually closer to 15 revolutions, as each new government of rebels got their heads cut off by the news rebel government.
And it all ended with one guy taking over and claiming himself Emperor, and then took over most of Europe.
And installed his family members as the new ruling families in those conquered nations.
Everyone always points to the French Revolution about what should be done.
No one ever remembers that it basically was a failure because they ended up with someone just as bad sitting on their now rebuilt thrown.
@@Targe0 you realize we could probably do a lot better now, considering its the information age and not pre-lightbulb, even if people are stupid we are a lot more educated than we were 300 years ago
It wasn't the peasants it was the bourgeoisie. Remember the Vendée
@@circleinforthecube5170 And that doesn't stop the problem that was at play there.
As the problem with violent revolutions is, it tells a people that the solution to your problem is to kill the ones causing the problem.
Which means that when the new government runs into problems and people get upset that the revolution didn't end exactly how they wanted it to.
They go with the option that just worked for them.
And that cycle keeps going until either a better system gets made, or as is the most common one, someone with a strong enough military force takes over instead.
It's why so many peoples rebellions end up falling into military dictatorships.
As the people you want to topple a nation are not the ones you then want to lead it.
But they tend to end up being the ones who lead it.
@ArcaniIgnis It wasn't them at the start of the French Revolution, but after they took out basically all the upper classes, they turned on each other over control of who would lead the new nation.
They killed off dozens of Government leaders from the rebellion.
Simply because they didn't like their leadership style.
And again those rebellions ended up making a new nobility instead.
As they literally crowned Napoleón Emperor.
Who was functionally just a moderday military dictatorship.

I love how I just came from the firebombing video and seeing all the corruption in Aussie politics to him talking about much better it is than the US
Yup, even with all that, it's still safer than in America
@@chaosgamer016_5is it though
I do not even try to comprehend the dribble I have listened too in the last 30 odd minutes.
Important to note that Australia’s relative safety and lack of social issues compared to the states can be attributed to cultural/ historical/ geographical factors and institutions such as Medicare rather than over policing. Also worth mentioning that over policing, constant erosion of liberties and growing wealth centralisation/ inequality are pushing Australia closer to the American experience…
Oh we definitely have those types of guns in Australia
The Friendlyjordies Title Situation is Crazier
As an American that left the US and immigrated to Australia 12 years ago, I cannot express in words how grateful I am to be in Australia and not have to deal with that completely messed up system. Please Aussies, do not let the healthcare system drift towards the US model. Taxes suck, but at least you can say that some of them are keeping Australia from spiralling like the US.
Yes, but you have to celebrate Xmas in the summer. That's quite the sacrifice
@@Backinblackbunny009 Beach, beer and BBQ is not that hard to get used to, unless you come from a place where it snows. 🙂
I’m an Aussie ex-pat living in the US for 20+ years. The only thing I’d point out here is that the “6 people stabbed” definitely is in the news in the more local and mid level news. In a country the size of the USA with ~345 million people, 13 times the size of Australia, with some metropolitan areas with a similar population, you can bet you don’t see the same type of news. Not making excuses for the violence here, just pointing out that “headlines” don’t cover all of this stuff.
Thanks!
Former prison colony is more civil than a "former" slave colony... who would have thunk it.
i don't know, america has a lot of problems but new york city is a vastly more impressive city than sydney, jordie was dead wrong when he said LA was the best part of america (its not, its just the cheapest to make movies in), it absolutely depends on the part of america, much of america is piss poor but much of it is civil, also our housing crisis stems from suburban sprawl and lack of middle density and the corporate takeover of housing, something australia is slowly buying more into

syrian here. been in egypt since 2013. let me chime in a little bit. if the syrian situation baffles you and want a brief summary on what the hell is going on then watch the syrian people reaction to this major event. everyone is celebrating. across the whole nation. this should give you an idea about what type of regime was in power. after the god aweful racist and sectarianist era the assad has reigned over, me and many other syrians are not keen on allowing a similar regime to take place. syria won't be afghanistan 2.0 because teh syrian society is deeply different
Doubt
Its the same shit mate, you've got an Isis guy as your president
That has been my response to people asking if this is a good thing for Syria. It only takes one look at the reaction of the people of Syria to see that, regardless of what comes next, they are relieved to be rid of the scum that was the Assad regime. I am not under the illusion that Al-Jolani doesn't intend to turn Syria into an Islamic state, the hope is that he will do so while instituting some of the basic civil liberties and religious freedoms that he has been intimating that he will.
@jetwells4528 yeh bro and that thing about Islamic states is that Christians (and other denominations) don't exist!
4:45 My two cents is that over two decades of school shootings and arbitrarily killings by both police and civilians have normalized that kind of extreme violence to the point that someone considering an assassination isn't immediately overruled by the rational part of their brain on the grounds of such an act being impossible to carry out or even just meaningless. After all, if some kid can unalive 20 people while the cops twiddle their thumbs outside, why can't you off that ceo or politician?
Basically, i just see it as the end result of a long process of normalizing extreme acts of violence that is only just now starting to affect the upper classes.
Funny thing is, they’re trying to paint the exact same picture of rising anti-semitism in my home country The Netherlands. When a bunch of Israeli hooligans started to tear down Amsterdam and there was a counter-reaction from the citizens. So quickly headlines popped up everywhere comparing these events to 1940’s levels of antisemitism, it’s so transparent what they’re trying to achieve but I fear it’s working

As someone who had a head on accident in July, it took me 1.5 months to get a Dr appointment, another 1.5 months to get an X-ray, and I won't get the consultation for an MRI in January. Healthcare workers are quitting in mass which besides privatized healthcare is causing many people to suffer. Even with insurance; which I have. I don't blame the guy one bit
You talked about your bad track record with predicting the future. I think it's important to remember that even professional analysts, in whatever industry they may work in, also are often wrong. But the value in their analysis is not predicting the future, but to recognize and speak about risks and opportunities. A good military analyst for example, should never say "this is what's going to happen". What they should say is "these are the things that can possibly happen , this is the context that created them, these are the advantages and disadvantages of each of these possibilities occurring, and these are the variables that we understand to be within our control". So don't worry about predicting the future. Just focus on what could happen, what you want to happen, and why.
If people really want to go in depth on these issues, another suggestion I would make is to look at what actually occurred and to ask do they match your predictions? If they don't, why not? Is it because your vision of the future was just way off base, or is it because other people identified the same risks as you and made an effort to avoid those outcomes? And even more importantly, if you were right in your prediction you need to ask questions that check how much you were right. For example, were you right but wrong in some way? Did someone miss an opportunity or not see a risk that you did?
Even when on a surface level you were right, how is what you actually said in the moment different from the reality that occurred? Because no matter how clairvoyant you feel you may have been, you will always have gotten many things wrong.
