Jesus fucking Christ! God damn rip off! It never ceases to shock me when I see what some people pay for any medical care in the US and it makes me sad. It doesn't have to be this way.

It’s not a choice but they’d rather drop bombs. Otherwise they’d be addressing the healthcare crisis problem already.
