    They will just claim it on their taxes (if they are for profit) and use it to reduce their overall tax burden. Doubtful a chain of that size will be at risk of a default.

    In the end, taxpayers get stuck with the inflated bill

    Anyone surprised by this has to be hiding their head in an ostrich hole. Blue cities and their progressive leadership have been as clear as they can that this is the direction urbania is going. Its time to get out if you don't want to be a part of it.

    That's the problem. Stupid policies like this cost everyone else more money, and it's a failure from the get-go. We're going backwards.

    Blacks were on par with whites on most markers(marriage/divorce, out of wedlock births, high school graduation, employment and incarceration rates) until Democrats talked them into shackling themselves to the Democrat welfare apparatus back in the 1960's. Then they tanked as a race. Seeing then that welfare and free stuff is the source of their current disadvantage. It follows suit that more free stuff can only work to compound the problem. Why the leftist intelligencia insist on giving blacks an effective aristocratic standing is beyond me. So much for individual accountability to lift the whole. Perhaps it is all a subconscious effort to bury accountability and avoid the obligation to address the truth. I mean now they are committed to outright bigotry in the name of addressing the fruits of bigotry. How stupid can they be? And blacks...why do they allow themselves to be treated like pampered pets and pretend that they are made equal to their owners by fancy ribbons and painted nails and a seat at the table. Best case scenario is that they'll never be other than their masters pets, beneath their fellow man and unfit to be free.

    We will need to forward the memo to the likes of the KKK and Aryan brotherhood and other assorted racist...

    As many Left wing activists have already stated, "White people should die". Apparently, these are Urban area Whites (Leftists) and have likely agreed they are the problem and need to be eliminated. If they want to die to "end racism", it's stunningly stupid, but that's their world.

    Neither had anything to do with race. Keep trying....or don't, you have nothing here.

    Show me a policy from a company that blatantly says whites will get preferential treatment over minorities.

    Since you clearly think this is happening.

    I'm guessing you're making yet another statement that you can't defend at all.

    Yes, the formerly non-racist policy was far worse than this blatantly racist one.

    Can you say anything that's true? Seriously.....anything at all?

    You made a claim and now you're running away from it saying we should go ask 'Brigham and Women'. How about you defend your own statement or stop saying things that aren't true. Gonna guess you won't even attempt to defend your blatantly falsehood that Trump is a white supremacist either......

    You actually defending what you say/claim would be a shock to all our systems though...maybe you should just keep making stuff up for our sake....

    So what claim did I make ? That whites will have no trouble getting healthcare in Boston ? Or when I said blacks will get healthcare ? Are you offended to hear blacks will get healthcare ? You’re offended by that ? That’s good. I like it. . You’re poor judgement is hilarious. Boston has more then 20 hospitals, many world famous. Whites will have no,problem. But I am delighted to think you’re speaking for the good people of Boston when you know crappola about them.

    I’m sure you’ll be irritated about something. That’s good.

    I'm pretty sure stupid decisions like that one should irritate anyone with a functioning brain. A blatantly racist policy like this should result in a management change.

    You mean the kind of 'equality' that by design put blacks ahead of whites, that equality?

    You really didn't say that, did you? :roflol:

    It's flamingly, horrifically, tragically RACIST, yes. It might as well be 1950, and the KKK's in charge.

    Look, Buddy. I have three kids in university in sciences, and other relatives both here and in America in medicine. I guarantee that for the past decade or so, medicine students in both countries are overwhelmingly NOT WHITE. At my kids' school for example, only about 5% are white. My NON-WHITE relatives obtained their medical degrees twenty years ago in America, and work with predominantly non-white colleagues.

    Even when medical professionals are born overseas, they have to train or retrain in America. They are not 'foreign nationals', they are either permanent residents or citizens. It's you who desperately needs to explain away the reality that white people are becoming rarer and rarer in medicine in the West. It seems you can't stand the thought that Americans of colour can not only get themselves medically treated, but they can become the treater without obstacle or difficulty.

    I guarantee it's NOT coming from medical professionals (half of whom are not white, and so any claim to racism is absurd just on that).

    The crucial fact these racist band-aid proposals avoid (wilfully), is that people from certain cultures have a different attitude to healthcare and treatment seeking - and it's this which accounts for the variation in outcomes.

    Will white people, whether they are liberal or conservative wake up and see how the left is literally an existential threat to their very health? If at some point they do, and I think that day is coming, the storming of the Capitol in comparison will be viewed as a mellow gathering.

    You need to reread the conversation because I have never asserted what you are saying. That’s why I was confused because you are unable to follow it. Makes sense now.

    All y’all have is threats. Yawn.

    Sorry you are so upset because others are doing to you what you are ok with being done to others.

    It makes not a jot of difference that the racism is ostensibly predicated upon 'compassion' (which of course it isn't. if these people really cared they'd look into why certain groups are so much less proactive in seeking treatment - even from medical professionals within their own racial group), it's still RACISM. There's no special pass for wrapping it up in a pretty box.

    And Affirmative Action is just a way to give people without opportunity a chance. Too bad it’s never implemented how they originally wrote it:) Like the lottery paying for schools. Wah wah waaaaaaaah.

    Did you miss what happened at the Capitol recently? This crap is coming to a head.. What’s labeled as white supremacists is already considered the biggest threat to the Country. What this hospital and others are doing will recruit more people that aren’t even considered by most to be extremists. You keep yawning, but keep one eye on the rage and violence that has happened and will escalate.

    .

    Ironically, they may be doing Whites a favor.

    In this evil day and age it's a good idea to try to stay clear of drugs, doctors and hospitals.

    The Capitol? The one where they smeared feces on the walls?

    Yeh, that was terrifying. How many incels, larpers and degenerates do you think will attend the next one?

    I don’t think the Capitol police and military will be as “friendly” under Biden. Might meet some resistance this time.

    So when you said that 'blacks will finally be able to get healthcare', you're actually going to say you weren't claiming that they currently can't, or at the very least struggle to? That is the implication you made, it was clear, and you won't attempt to defend it because it's not true.

    You also claimed Trump was a white supremacist. You won't attempt to defend that either.

    As for all the other bullshit you said about me....not an ounce of it is true. But how else could you make a point other than to invent things?
