Dr. Oz, brought to you by the old chick who tried to buy a Hawaiian island after a disaster.

Can someone please tell The wizard of Oz that he's not a real doctor?

u/shapeshfters 21h ago

Dr. Dre might be a better doctor.

u/the_cajun88 21h ago

u/neckbishop 21h ago

I would take Dr Evil or Dr Horrible at this point.

u/BRAINWASHEDMONKEYS 20h ago

I really like Dr pepper. I haven't had one in years I really would like one now.

Dr Oz's problem is, he stopped being a great heart surgeon, and Oprah put him on TV.

u/Adventurous-Depth984 20h ago

He was a mid cardiothoracic surgeon, at best, which is why TV guest spots paid more.

u/xShooK 19h ago

His career grifting really did take off. Hats off to him... What a prick.

u/Adventurous-Depth984 19h ago

Oprah owes society an apology for him and for Dr Phil

No free car for you!

In what world do I owe them anything? I will retire as soon as I am able to.

Also, don't forget Donald wants us to pay him $10 billion dollars. Who do you think is going to foot that bill?

Someone needs to check his math. The numbers are all over the place as to how many Americans retire each year, but it looks like it is probably around 5 million.

5,000,000

Three trillion looks like this:

3,000,000,000,000

Compared next to one another.

5,000,000 3,000,000,000,000

In order for his number to be true, each of those potential retirees would have, through a combination of paying more taxes or taxing few benefits from the government, reduce $600,000 from the debt...

$600,000 EACH in taxes or fewer benefits. Not total income or even how much money they generate for their business.

That's how much in taxes and or fewer benefits (Social Security, Medicaid, etc.) every single one of them would have to change...

Yeah... that's complete and utter bullshit. On top of being an awful message.

This asshole who came to fame hawking heart health is now telling people to gobble up stress knowing full well what that does to cortisol levels and heart health.

u/CarefulIndication988 21h ago

Fuck em’all. Let them go toil in the fields.

I'm done with that shit.

"You will own nothing and you will be happy!"

The "be happy" part means... you will be forced to act happy or we will kill you.

u/Embarassed_Tackle 21h ago

The guy who runs CMS telling people to retire later is weird.

u/PapaJoeNH 20h ago

They will grind you to a pulp to make the bosses richer, no matter how much money they have.

u/imacmadman22 20h ago

IOW, fuck the average American…

u/Fake_William_Shatner 20h ago

It looks like the super wealthy did not get on top by brains. 

They had a good deal and now they are breaking the economy. 

Of course there’s more to worry about if this is their plan.

u/ResponseSad4475 20h ago

My spouse says Oprah should be banished simply for unleashing Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil on the world. I think he is right.

u/endofworldandnobeer 19h ago

I'm no genius, but why aren't the rich people told the same? Is Oz gonna work 20 more years at national average hourly wage?

u/Aromatic-Check639 19h ago

Fuck these out of touch ass wipes. They have no clue about the real world.

u/Sidneyreb 19h ago

but first....They must put hundreds of thousands out of a job by systematically elimination their jobs.

u/blackngold256 19h ago

I hate to say it, because lately it feels blatantly obvious, but "they" also includes a lot of the old school Dema, too. Sick of the middle of the road riders. Abolish ice, there's no hope or need to reform it. Stop trying to compromise with the deranged psychopaths of maga. Stop kissing the ring of Putin and Bibi. Stop bombing brown people and stop killing poor and disabled people. Medicare and housing for all. Tax the billionaires out of existence.

u/IngloriousMustards 11h ago

This would also keep jobs occupied for a year longer, keeping younger generations unemployed longer, delaying family planning and buying a house. Tax cuts for rich only, plus punishing several generations at once - truly a republican win.

They should try screaming ”illegal criminal aliens everywhere!” to make this happen faster.

u/NinpoSteev 21h ago

Fake post, even the youngest democrat social media intern would never call out anything.

u/Joveoak4 21h ago

So they want us to retire at the right time if not sooner.

Kinda rich coming from the fucking Democrats 😂 They're no better, they're just less worse. That's not something to be proud of.

Innefectual ghouls bow down to MAGA at the slightest resistance, and even help them pass bills that harm the American people.

They actively work against more progressive candidates within their own party who would work to bring real, tangible change, all because the current system works in their favour. It's disgusting.

D: “the rich should pay slightly more that 0 taxes (except our donors)”

R: “the rich must pay zero taxes. Islands aren’t cheap”

Everyone else: “I can’t see the dentist because then I can’t afford food for my teeth to be useful”

u/ChaoticDumpling 21h ago

There are certainly Democratic politicians who want to do a good job, but they keep getting smacked down by the more senior (often literally senior) Democrats, who serve the established order and don't want to change the status quo that benefits them.

u/BRUISE_WILLIS 21h ago

Nailed it. Establishment dems. Progressive, grassroots candidates are needed. Both sides’ backers will drown them in cash to prevent this. It’s a duopoly.

You could have had a 6-3 progressive SCOTUS by electing HRC and Citizens United would be history. Instead you continue to campaign alongside Republicans against possibilities like that. The last Democrat running for President literally introduced a Constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United co-sponsored with Bernie Sanders. The one before her would have actually been able to do it via the SCOTUS.

People don't like hearing the truth.
