I am 33 years old and have lived most of my life in Dallas, Texas. I have been traveling the world heavily over the past five years, and I am currently on the road traveling the world for 13 months. I have extensive experience with corporate healthcare plans and also purchasing my own private healthcare plans outside of an employer. My mother has been chronically ill for most of my life, so I’m fairly well versed in health insurance and how the US healthcare system “works”.
I’ve visited over 35 countries and god damn I swear that anyone who claims America is the best country is living in the clouds and incredibly delirious.
Most important in life is your health… and in just about every first world country (excluding the US) out here you are guaranteed to never go bankrupt because of your health. You can wake up and go to bed everyday knowing that it’s ok to get sick or need to be hospitalized, and you’re not possibly going to lose your house or live in debt for your whole life because of an accident or poor health that is out of your control.
Seriously, this drives me crazy because I want to live in the US. I enjoy my life in Dallas. But why the fuck can we not figure this healthcare shit out? Literally my dad cannot retire because they have to be able to pay for expensive and unaffordable private medical insurance for my mother. Her health has literally kept them poor because of this shitty and inhuman healthcare “system” that we have and refuse to change. FYI, these are autoimmune diseases we are talking about, again, at no fault of your own. They just show up unannounced one day in your life and you’re basically fucked.
Is healthcare for all seriously such an issue for Americans? Left or right, we are all human after all lol. Do we care so much more about money than our family, friends, and neighbors wellbeing?
Can we please change this and make healthcare number one?
There is no perfect system. There is a system that cares though. That system provides healthcare for all and affordably.
