Gotta love US healthcare
I’d be broke a long time ago if I lived the US. Good thing I’m French and a surgery for a life threatening condition, plus 4 month of rehabilitation, costed me a whopping 0€.
That’s some kind of communist talk. In the Land of the Free you are your own man. No nanny state telling you what to do. You have options. You can be rich, you can put all your money into a scam bank, which is de facto sanctioned, (and die when they do a rug pull because you no longer have money for life saving, much less preventative care), or you can die. But this was your choice, and you can have a huge truck (N.B. the bank actually owns the truck, but in 5 years you’ll have it paid off).

In reality I left the US years ago and don’t miss it, I do fear for friends though.
We have a fantastic medical system if you are poor in a state that funds it’s Medicaid system well OR wealthy enough to not be burdened by the cost of medical care.
To be fair, being poor only works if it is a clear cut life threatening issue. Otherwise, they treat and street you…
Seriously? I had to pay $118,000. I fought insurance company for two years and eventually only ended up paying about $12,000

America dumb.
I wouldn’t call them dumb. Masochist, maybe, but not dumb.
We’re not masochists, we’re just ruled by sadists.
Be my language tutor 🙃 I’d love to Marseille in a heartbeat.
