first off American health care is a wretched fucking joke. It's not healty and not caring. Insurance companies are able to deny treatment for some of the most absurd bullshit reasons out there. Secondly your average american will live a shorter lifespan than people in other countries, despite the fact that for all the fat and unhealthy shit in their diet, they still drink and smoke less, and still have less fat in their diet than other non european countries.

I would rather die waiting for care, than commit suicide despairing over being wholly unable to receive said care.
