Where I live, in Canada, if you aren't insured a plane trip to a hospital will cost you upwards of $30k

So the single payer system up there doesn't cover everything then? Do you buy insurance only for things the single payer system doesn't cover, or do you have to completely buy private health insurance to get that kind of coverage?

Who do you think pays when governments bail out large private corporations?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I wish. But what I know of the current affair of things, I can only hypothesize two outcomes:

  1. The benefit after the costs of potential rescue, and now the discovery of 5 recognizable pieces of the craft, will be a learning moment and there will be more regulation of deep sea diving for tourism in the near future. And the families of the victims will say that's enough and probably name the legislation after one, or a few of the victims.

  2. The family of the victims will make sure OceanGate will never build another deep sea vessel ever again. This one will depend on the legal logistics. Just like how some airlines caused airliner crashes due to pure negligence, some of the first-class families weren't able to sue them into non-existence due to international airspace and/or waters protections.

Because either of those two things are what typically happens in such a scenario. At least lately.

what about the boat in greece that sunk?

I honestly don’t know shit about fuck but I would hope that there would be some type of litigation or something that would figure this out right?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

the government might have a case to sue for negligence and get some of their costs recovered. but the company is going to go bankrupt anyways, so even if they win it's not like they're actually going to recoup any money.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Makes sense. Can’t take money from them once they are totally bankrupt.

Just wanted to say that a friend gave me a sticker of Ruth for Christmas that says I don’t know shit about fuck and it was the best gift ever
