It would be great if he would just fall off a cliff.

his worms will keep him alive though, his body is a just a empty husk, hollowed about the worms.

He's just Mister Oogie-Boogie from Nightmare Before Christmas at this point.

This take only makes sense if you some how believe that he has everyone’s best interests in mind, but he is some how too far misguided and “daft” to make the correct decision.

The reality is this is a highly calculated move to hurt people disguised as an incompetent mistake. Don’t be fooled.

That’s Trump’s entire admin in a nutshell. The whole point is to do maximum damage, disguised as “making America great again”.

The republican party has some major interest in spreading measles. They may be getting financial kickback from healthcare organizations to ensure more people end up in hospitals, driving up medical debt. Or they're devils in human form. It's hard to tell.

wouldnt it contradict insurance, since they dont want to payout for a patients healthcare, so they would support vaccinations because then they do not actually spend insurance money on someone thats in a hospital. kaiser does this, they are all in on prevention methods over actual services. the ones that would benefit would be pharmceutical charging for thier lifesave drugs.

They don't want to payout for patients, so they deny paying for treatments, and they keep taking people's monthly payments. Kaiser has the lowest percentage of denials, based on an infographic I saw a few months ago. Insurance is a scam, making profits off of people's poor health, letting them die when costs exceed potential returns. It's what makes Luigi a hero, doing what none of us could to make life better for the rest of us.
