With fewer and fewer jobs giving health care in the United States, it’s bankrupting to have any medical condition. Hell, without coverage, my medications would cost me over $700 a month. So if you have anything saved up, it’ll be burned away in one ER visit. It’s why so many avoid taking an ambulance or even bother going in. Personally, I think I would rather die, than go to a hospital without insurance. Even with insurance, my co-pay is $100. Our country has become downright dystopian for the older with any health condition. Anymore I feel like the country is ran by the damn Ferengi.
