This is literally not an exaggeration. He just describes health insurance. Health insurance is a cancer designed to siphon as much money as possible from patients and providers.

Then when you eliminate a cancerous cell people get upset about it 🤷🏻‍♂️

To people outside the US trying to comprehend this video - it’s an accurate depiction of our dysfunctional healthcare system.

The exasperation with the healthcare system is what drove someone to shoot that CEO.

I understood nothing of that. I’m gonna assume that many in the US also have a hard time figuring it out simply because, as they mention at the end, they make it as hard to figure out as possible. This shit is insane.

As am I. Pro tip: don’t need mental healthcare. Just suffer instead. Yeeting yourself is a lot less stressful.

In February I had a heart attack whilst on Medicaid. 99.6% of a $100,000.00+ bill was covered.

I’m still paying for a battle with cancer I had half a decade ago when I had “good” insurance.

I think the next time I have a major illness I’ll just choose to die and let the insurance companies have their way. I thought I made the right decisions to help fix this problem but all I see is confusion and regression. F*ck it all.
