America sounds horrendous. If you live in a country ran by Jews I suppose you should expect to be properly shafted at every turn.

Again... its brilliant if you have cash.

If you dont have much cash Canada is a good option, and if you have no cash then Mexico is right there in the other direction.

If you have no cash in America then it is, as you said, horrendous.

Genuine question. Just say you are walking down the street, no health insurance, and you get hit by a car, 2 broken legs, and the driver fucks off. Do you just get left to die?

No, you get taken to a hospital and treated, but since you have no insurance you are responsible for the entire bill.

Two broken legs you're looking at tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket.

You could, of course, refuse treatment and... just lie there and wait for infection to kill you.

So, yeah. You have options.

I take it if you just rubber the bill it's just the equivalent of bailiffs and that nonsense?

I'm totally ignorant about US shit so these are genuine questions even if they sound stupid.

Would a hospital just let an uninsured kid die? If they'd been in an accident for instance?

You could declare bankruptcy, which is what most people do.

That's your credit and life fucked for a while.

It's not terrific, which is why very much DON'T fuck socialism, kids.

Again, they'd treat the kid if it was an accident.

If the kid had cancer, however, your options are pay the full amount to treat that kid... say a million bucks... or that kid doesn't get treatment and it's up to Jesus.

Medicine is a business in a capitalist society, not a charity.

How cool is that?

I believe in this country we should pay for prescriptions. A £1 per item or whatever.

Would sort the fakers right out.

The government MINIMUM should supply 4 things free to every citizen.

A home.

Health Care.

Education.

Prostitutes.

Do you still do the exchange rate thing when you pay for shit?

5 bucks 'oh thats £4 in UK'. Bargain.

Or lived there too long now?

It's a fave pass time of mine when abroad. Incredible feeling knowing you get a bargain but with Turkish Lira.

I'm speaking utter mince today.

Prescriptions. £1. UK.

Succulent Chinese meal.

I convert, still. Muscle memory at this point, I convert dollars into real money.

Weirdly I measure temp in Fahrenheit, though.

Americanised.

Do you have a Twin Peaks near you? The best ranch sauce with fried pickles. Been to 3 of them and outstanding every time.

Fuck knows where my head is today, absolutely all over the shop.

I want fried pickles now. 

No Twin Peaks but multiple Brazilian Steakhouses.

Brazilian Steakhouses are the strongest evidence that a god exists.

LOL.

Even here we have a public health.  It's not perfect but by golly they'll do their best.

Do you have to pay for vaccines an all Keltface?

Think there's only 2 countries in the world that allow pharmaceutical bastards to advertise on telly.   US and New Zealand.  Mega LOL.

Aye that's mad. Mental that a hospital or doctor would just let a child suffer and die rather than treat them. You'd think they'd find some way of providing for them no matter the system.

Many of them do.

I remember hearing thon shite artist cunt Jewel talking about how when she was stoating about busking and that, she got some shit that almost killed her and the doctor in the hospital gave her free treatment and meds...

Probably wanted to ride her likes.

If it was Ed Sheerin he would be dead now.

Sadly he's not.

Pharma ads are fucking hilarious.

Tells you all the benefits of their drug, but at the end they're legally obliged to tell you all the side effects, so they blaze through that part of the ad at triple speed in one breath, in the hopes you'll miss all the bad shit.

Wait... what did that guy say?

Probably what happened to Dad in his short, failed, sojourn to US and A.

Swallowed some wild shit while high on weed. 

Now bitter and back licking his wounds in Castlemilk. 

Never the same chap again.

The bits at the end are a crease. 

"Sometimes serious & fatal infections such as tuberculosis and cancers and lymphomas have happened. "
 

 

Can't wait to get me some Humira. Yes siree.

Chantix is a pretty special drug that might help you quit smoking. 

As the top comment says, 

"I love this ad so much. Only 18 seconds of it aren't about the horrifying side effects. "

 

 

Jesus. 

Bury me softly in this world.

Chantix sounds great. Even non smokers might be tempted.

Smack has fewer side effects than Chantix, and when you get hooked on it you'll probably stop smoking.

Market the horse, the skag, the H, as an anti smoking drug and it'll get legalised.
