they're instructed to say that whatever it is, it's not covered.
How utterly horrible!

(I still have a small hole in my back from that episode 16 years ago which Eor has to clean out for me every now and then so it won't get infected.)
Oh my god. :// I'm sorry to hear you have to deal with that. What kind of crazy system is it where the government doesn't prioritise things like, you know, keepings its citizens alive and healthy? That's pretty fucking basic!

In my country people are pretty apathetic about politics, but even if we don't expect much from politicians, being able to go to the doctor for free or cheaply is just a basic right. If they can't do that, wtf can they do?

Yeah, I saw those signs, but I just didn't understand where that came from. When people worry about the economic risks of a new plan, I get that, even if I think health care spending just has to be prioritised. But I understand where their fears come from. But the communism/death panels stuff? WTAF? I just didn't get how anyone could think that. And worse, how other people could believe it. The American media is crazy!
