- koolba 3y ago> you never heard of anything like this? No I haven’t. I’ve heard of penalties and barring from working in a given industry. But never banning from receiving from Medicare or Medicaid. > I have heard of much worst.... death sentence for example. I never said there weren’t worse sentences. Something can be crazy or interesting without being the most extreme thing possible.
- coldtea 3y agoYes, the death sentence is one nuts, medieval, punishment the US still uniquely clings to among Western countries for some reason (well, the reason being vindictive Old Testament mentality that lusts for blood). To very little effect too, judging from the much worse violent crime problem. But this is a another level of medieval mentality. Even criminals waiting in death row got health treatments to my undestanding. So this is "you can get out of jail at some point, and live to ripe old age, but without access to healthcare welfare programs if you need them". (Doesn't matter is she's from a rich family or never gonna need them or whatever. That someone decided that, and that it's even an acceptable option, is nuts. To me it's not much different to learning that judicially beating children is casually accepted by some legal system). Then again, I guess this is not much different to what's the case for the regular law abiding poor citizen in those parts.
