do you think hospitals are free? do you think other people should pay for your health concerns?
other people's time costs money, a sterile building with bright lights and rooms with medical equipment cost money, bandages and xrays cost money
if you don't like paying for your health, don't go to a hospital, they cost money
Seriously, go lay and the street and die you fucking deadbeats with your cancer, broken arms, viruses, plague, and stds. How dare you even consider getting any sort of help for free.

more infections occur in hospitals because more people are cut open there, not surprising

you've just put the manufacturers of HEPA filters out of business, even if the pathogens only last an hour, it only takes a few moments of exposure to become infected

Yep, if its an emergency (which is why your going to the emergency room) your fucked. They know this and price accordingly so your fucked both ways. God help you if you have insurance because your bill will rise exponentially. Its really not the hospitals fault per say because they have to pay their over priced doctors and over priced other staff plus pay for building cost. The system is fucked up and needs fixing.

Running from the police is as retarded as a special olympics event and even more embarassing.
You're almost certainly going to get caught and when they do catch you they get to add another criminal charge on top of whatever you started off with. Why in the fuck would you want that?

that's not even the point of the thread, it's just the reason I got into the whole situation.

What can I say, I panicked. I was with other people so I had a 1 in 3 shot of getting away but I ate shit and got busted. Natural instinct is to run and that's what I did.

I've been there when I was in high school... but I'd thought about getting caught beforehand so I had it in my head not to run. It helps to just etch the thought "don't run" into your brains.
About the hospital bill, that's pretty cheap. I had a plantar wart on one of my feet and I had to visit a podiatrist 8 times over the course of 2 months, and each visit cost $60. That's over $400 for a freaking wart.
Maybe requesting to be taken to a community hospital would have been a good idea... part of the cost is subsidized for people with no insurance.

wE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY SHIT ANYWAY!!! I don't know why i waste all my money on my rent and my bills when I should be paying off all those medical bills they send me. I mean obviously they're real hard up for money when they can pay the doctors 70- 100's of thousands of dollars a year to tell me to "drink plenty of fluids" or "Ice and heat for 24 hours, keep it elevated." Must take a genius-

Haha no kidding. Within 15 minutes I had correctly diagnosed myself as well as figured out exactly what the doctors would tell me to do 2 hours later.

Cut them some slack. They went to college for four years, then medical school for four more years, then residency for up to six more years. Then they became doctors with $250,000 worth of student loans to pay back.
They deserve to make a good living. And if you don't like that, stop going to doctors and just treat yourself.

If I went through that much time and money in college, I'd give a nice solid crotch-kick to anyone righteous enough to claim I didn't deserve a good salary.
That being said, the prices they charge patients are unfairly inflated... hospitals with serious understaffing and budget problems still manage to pay their executives 6 figures... yet they have patients dying from septic conditions and overall neglect because they supposedly can't afford a proper staff.
