The American health care system is garbage, most European systems as well as Australia's are superior in many respects and more freely available

All Americans know this in their hearts but are too fatheaded to admit it

I do believe it also costs more than a UHC system would.

Incontrovertible fact

They know this in their brains as well, provided the know how it works in the first place.

Now I see where we get our humor.

Sorry, I thought it was pretty cool how I went to the doctors, got an MRI, and a surgery all within one week and it didn't impact me financially because I pay for actual insurance. But yeah, waiting 6 months for a surgery on the public's dime sounds like it would have been a beter deal

I honestly had the same thing when I was a kid. My parents aren't fuckups and both have their masters and get great health insurance. Herego, as a kid when I had an aggressive skin infection that needed surgery I got treatment that very same day.

This is capitalism people, not socialism aka "communism light". You work, you do good, you get the rewards accordingly. You don't work, you dont do a good job, you get fucked and bitch about it.

Nope, had the surgery a week from the first doctor visit. Feels good to actually have quality care

You both had emergency surgeries you stupid fuckwits

I'm not sure you know what you're talking about. I was not an ER patient.

Because tearing my labrum was so life threatening. I have flash backs to when my shoulder hurt and am thankful that they caught it before it was terminal

>>51584156
I apologize for my parents immigrating here and fulfilling the american dream.

>skin infection
Infections are always treated immediately

>MRI shortly after visiting doctor
That implies a serious injury that would require immediate attention

Both would be treated immediately anywhere in the developed world you cretins. Do you really think people wait 3 months to treat infections in Britain? Are you really this stupid?
>>

Nobody is asking you to apologize, you little baby, but you don't deserve credit for being born fortunate and you certainly don't have the right to lecture other people about hard work

I'm out. This is getting boring.

Doing it wrong

I tore some tissue my shoulder fuckwit, the worst that happened was that my arm hurt a bit after lifting. But thanks to actually investing in a non shit healthcare plan I could get that taken care of right away
>>
>>51584232
>Thinking I care about 'credit'
lmaoing @ ur whiny poorfag life
>>
>>51584260
You would get swift treatment for torn tissue requiring surgery anywhere in the developed world, you moron. You're not special
>>
>>51583897
Yeah dude. My aunt survived breast cancer, and has zero debt.

I guess Euros can't comprehend how health insurance works.
>>
>>51584336
>Actually believing this
First it was
>"b-but their healthcare is so much better!"
Than it was
>"Well, the wait isn't THAT much longer. What's another month in the grand scheme of things?"
And then
"Oh yeah? Well you needed an emergency surgery, all countries offer that!"
And finally it's
>ALL SURGERIES BIG AND SMALL ARE OFFERED AT THE SAME SPEEDS, NO WAITING UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE IS PERFECT"
>>
>>51584582
You would get pretty much the same treatment for a traumatic injury like a tear, though

It's just not the kind of thing that isn't taking care of right away

Also
>infection
Are you really dumb enough to think that any developed country wouldn't have that treated immediately?
>>
If American health care is so good, than why are so many Americans dying?
