Man do I feel bad for you Americans when I see this shit.
So many Americans justify it as well... I can mention it on reddit and I'll get viciously attacked defending that shit healthcare system.
It's hands down, the worst in western civilization.
In that aspect I see the US as a developing country.
I sometimes refer the US in discussions as "worlds richest 3rd world country"
Exactly!
A third world country wearing a gucchi belt
I'm thinking of calling it the post-developed country where all the goodwill of the generations past rotted into a nasty, greedy mess
So a cautionary tale?
Ah, but our healthcare system is the best in the world—for shareholders. It's a highly advanced system for extracting money from people with health problems.
I remember seeing Gene Simmons getting interviewed on TV here (UK) and he started talking about how great private healthcare is. If I remember right it was a weird tangent from the question he was asked. It felt like he had Stockholm syndrome.
Gene Simmons is an ultracapitalist bastard who only went into rock music for the money. Fuck Kiss. I don't listen to that shit.
Don't forget the sex he also did it for
That amazes me. Our healthcare system is terrible; I have no idea how people defend it.
