Freeloaders. Lol. That's how insurance works. Nobody can afford to pay for a two week hospital stay out of pocket. Not even rich people. Just like nobody can afford to rebuilt, their house when it burns down.
This is true.
When I was uninsured and just needed IV fluids and anti nausea meds, each trip cost about 10k. Ill be paying on that 60k for the rest of my life lol
$10K to admister $150 of saline and gravol is disgusting. Gouging at its finest. Given my wife is what is classed as a brittle type 1 diabetic and had needed to make 100's of hospital visits over the years for serious complications, I would be bankrupt and she would be dead if it were not for the Canadian system. Thank god she is now on a state of the art insulin pump which means she maybe goes to the er once a year now. But $10K for $50 bux of meds and $100 of administration. My mind reels.

They even sent people to my house to collect money like 4 days after my first visit I was like holy shit here I'm still sick puking my guts up and you're asking for money not even a week later.
I just slammed the door.

Back in the day before you needed a passport to go to Mexico we would make trips down there when we were 15-16 and buy all that shit at super low costs and come back and flip it for double, then go back.
I felt like a drug Lord. Especially when I made that first $1k sale to some kid in a McDonald's parking lot. I was pretty sure I was gonna go to jail hahaha but he turned out to be a good customer.

Believe it or not my taxes more than cover it. This is because $150 worth of meds and admin costs $150. When you don't need to make some billionare richer, healthcare is affordable for everyone. I know its a hard concept but people and government can do the right thing without some dick getting rich while making others destitute.

False.
The French system is the way healthcare system should be
The Canadian sysstem is just a cheap knock off. As soon as we can finally adopt a 2 sspeed system, we'll be able to boast.
It's still much better than the US system though

That's why I see so many international patients. though to be fair, as a healthcare professional, we find insurance to be a pain in our asses.

Maybe 80,000 to 90,000 people come to America for healthcare annually. An estimated 750,000 americans head the other way every year, and that number keeps growing.

zappa never offered an arguement. he gave you 1) story, for which he provided no back up. and 10 posts of him quoting right wing talking heads that if you believe him, HE NEVER LISTENS TO. which is scarier, because aparently he talks SO MUCH to people who repeat it that he can quote WORD FOR WORD The heritage foundation agenda ... its impressive.
frankly i hope its not even true.

Its a great concept. However in the case of the US health system it would be like paying a dude flipping burgers $45 a hour.
