the united states is #1 in medical bankruptcy, including people with insurance.

insurance is a scam youve been taught to not see as a scam. its a terrible middleman which extracts profits from sick and hurt humans by denying them care. if they paid all the claims, they would have no profit. and why should they? how can anyone defend such a gross money grab.

giving the scam credibility keeps those costs high . pretending it has value keeps us from moving to a cheaper, more universal system.
