True, but imo living in a broken and profit-maximising healthcare system should not serve as an excuse for permitting yourself to make shitty life choices. The situation op described would have been irresponsible wherever they lived.
We should all eat healthy within our means. We all should exercise as much as possible. We all should do our best to not get sick or injured in the first place - which imo includes not getting filleted by our friends.
Exactly. Personal accountability is important regardless of the system. Expecting a healthcare system to be a safety net for irresponsibility is madness.
I agree with the others’ sentiment that you need to be your own advocate (or be fortunate to have a loved one ego can do it) in order to get the best healthcare results.
That goes for all healthcare systems, and our horrid system in the US makes it even more necessary, not less.
Kids, remember: The cornerstone of any healthcare system is YOU CARING ABOUT YOUR HEALTH. Don’t fuck around with your health.
If you do stupid shit for fun, make at least sure it kills you and doesn’t leave you with lifelong disability.
Kids, remembet: The corner stone of american healthcare system is HOW CAN WE MAKE A PROFIT FROM THAT. Don’t fuck around with our profits.
