And I’m not even gonna say anything about the “shithole countries” comment.
Many times I do considered my own country a “shithole”, but never in my life I’ve seen something like this happened in my country (let me tell you, I’m a diabetic with renal failure under treatment, going to public hospitals like more than 10 times a month, so I KNOW):

In the US the medical industry is exactly that an industry. Think of hospital beds containing people who can’t pay or are medcaid ect. patients like tables at a restaurant. Also when cuts come it’s mental health stuff that goes first and if you have epilepsy or something you need a bracelet requesting people not call an ambulance or risk getting stuck with bills that can take years to pay off if you’re not conscious enough to refuse the ambulance ride.
We’re not a shithole, we’re a dystopia.
