    not free; tax funded

    Which is great! Taxes should be invested in citizens’ needs.

      Free as in “free at the point of service”.
      Of course it is paid for somehow.
      But as far a a someone going into a hospital to get a cast, medicine, birth… It’s free

    Luckily the US built a border wall so Mexico won’t be overflooded with illegal immigrants trying to profit the free health care.

    Useless gesture when we have no medical supplies, meds, or just fucking AC inside our hospitals in cities where we have temps over 100°F/40 °C every day

        not even a start, we already had free healthcare programs not tied to employment before

            si señor ya me cayo disculpe usted por querer hablar de mi experiencia siendo mexicano

            soy un pobre indio tonto que no conozco mi lugar y deberia estar agradecido de poder compartir este lugar con gente como usted

            edit: well it’s clear to me this is an english speaking space, but I don’t know why I expected something else from a mostly liberal space where people outside of my country will try to shut me and tell me I’m wrong while they live in a country rich thanks to colonialism

            hope you enjoy your ‘uplifting news’, hope they make you happy and you will never have to step into an IMSS clinic in your privileged life

              Browsers have translate functions these days. Reply in whatever language you like …. Or at least a supported one. I see what you said and assume it was meant sarcastically

                it’s the irony for me, trying to shut me off for talking about the situation in my own country while I’m doing to effort to communicate in their language

                I’m not a stranger to the way americans treat us

      That’s a bit like yelling at firefighters for wasting time connecting their hoses when they should be putting the fire out.

        No no no, the firefighters SAID they are connecting their hoses but in reality there are no hoses, they spent that money for the hoses on something else and people have to put out the fire by themselves

        There is a difference between putting something in paper and actually putting policy in action

          Dang, I guess they shouldn’t have made this law then, huh? What a waste of time trying to create the legislative framework to improve things when obviously its futile to try to improve things. We should just accept that things are currently bad, and that they’ll never get better, right?

            man what a waste of bits for this comment, yeah I guess, next time we will put a law to end world hunger?

            but go off, it’s not like we have an issue where healthcare quality is declining in Mexico while the government is spending money on projects like Tren Maya, AIFA or more fossil fuels…

            I’m amazed by you people, you will complain (rightfully) that trump has wasted a lot of money on his shitty war and his shitty ballroom while their people are suffering but when a self proclaimed ‘leftist’ gov does the same shit you will believe whatever they say at face value and ignore what the actual citizens have to say about it

        me sorprende la autoridad con la que vienen a hablar los extranjeros de nuestra situación. entiendo que en lemmy muchos somos de izquierda pero si realmente creen que el gobierno actual de México ve por los intereses del proletariado pues están bien pendejos y probablemente lo sean si son gringos

    Hang on. Nothing is for free, but bravo Mexico for socializing medical care through taxation. The USA should be taking notes to extinguish their massive healthcare dumpster fire.
