    I do not understand that, in my country abortions are free

    (ok, not actually free. You need to pay 15 euro for the blood test, a 30 euro tax, 2 euro for the hospital parking fee and around 10 euro to buy the painkiller or antibiotics after the operation)

      Dude, I wish I lived in a civilized country. My cancer treatment would have cost somewhere in the range of $5 million without insurance. Healthcare is a human right

        Dude, I just got the post-exposure rabies vaccine. Was four trips to the ER at $125 USD co-pay a pop… however, without insurance, I learned it can be as much as like $15k if you don’t qualify for assistance and/or Medicaid.

        We really need to take to the streets.
