        American health care is not health care. It is profit care. Profit is the goal and only guaranteed provided product.

        My health insurance decided it wanted me to pay another $220 for some reason. I received the bill literally on the day my grandmother died.

        The American healthcare system is not a system at all. It is an industry bordering on being a racket.

        I have no way, even with insurance, to realistically afford even routine checkups without using up savings that took me months to build.

        But that's also because rent is insane where I live because nobody's building new housing and more and more current space is going to airbnb
