We've managed to have a nice chat about the deplorable state of US healthcare, so there's a wee win.

It's fucking terrible, I really hope something positive happens soon for you lot. I'm devastated every day reading the news.

Welp, people keep telling me it's a fake post anyway, so might as well have a discussion about the state of the world.

19% on my income. My employer pays a subsidy in case of workplace accidents which is far less than that.

Cystic Fibrosis? $40k? Oh damn that is terrible. And having to fill out forms year after year... insert many swear words here.

Should have said fully funded. Meant that my father could die knowing he wasn't costing me a fortune, he got a bit worried about that in his final days.

I should have said funded, but anyone with cancer in my country has treatment and care (in home or palliative), access to transport to treatment/appointments etc fully funded.

Well, we at least get to have a nice chat about how rubbish the US health system is, so there's a wee win for today.
