You try getting in a car crash seriously injured. Get to a hospital, and the first concern of the ER is to demand you pay 4 months wages to not leave you to die from a severed artery.

Yes it's much better for them to do all the shit to you then send you a bill for 15 million dollars later.

Literally no developed country anywhere around the US would let you bleed out on the floor in the hospital so you're literally making up complete nonsense for a terrible point that still ends up with you completely fucked for the next 20 years. You better hope you die in that car crash

....ok? What does this have to do with a bunch of assault rivals being all over the next state?

What do you think makes it easier to get a gun, having thousands of them sitting in a city, or not having thousands of them sitting in a city? Hmmm....

After we pass the awb, we'll just go to Mexico and take theirs too. Probably confiscate the 3d printers and also all of the unlicensed mills and lathes

You're both retarded. They'll fucking treat you like the shittons of illegals and welfare queens that use the emergency room as a primary care doctor

Two months in advance is still better than not getting to see one at all because you didn't get in the daily tickets because scalpers bought them all.
The American healthcare system is so expensive because of the regulations and the equipment. Negative pressure ventilation rooms in hospital rooms? MRI, CT machines at a regular doctor's office and not a hospital? This shit is part of the reason why it is so expensive alongside admin deadweight and not being able to turn down homeless.
You try rushing a friend to a hospital 80 miles away to find out they don't even have electricity nor an X-ray machine.

You take much for granted.

>Two months in advance is still better than not getting to see one at all
For close to a decade, because of my parents'... "odd" employment situation (read: pretty much coasting financially because of my dad's health), I had no health insurance. That meant no dentist appointments to check for and fill cavities, no doctor's appointments unless I was coughing up or shitting out blood, and for my diabetic brother, careful saving for insulin (which he didn't always have). No, we didn't quality for Medicaid. No, I didn't go to charity-case clinics or med student freebies, because until I was out of high school I didn't even know they existed. I hope it's clear that effectively living like it's the 1800s isn't great for dental health in particular. That I was let to go years without so much as a dental checkup is infuriating. This is a problem for a lot more people than you think.
>because you didn't get in the daily tickets because scalpers bought them all.
I'm noticing a trend: your complaints seem to be specifically about Canada's wait times (not as bad as being unable to afford going to begin with) and a "lottery system" (one exists, sort of, but it's not remotely as you describe). Other countries have nationalized healthcare systems without these issues. I know it's temping to point to America Jr. and laugh, but most Western nations have nationalized healthcare that far exceeds US expectations for quality of care, so long as you aren't fucking loaded.
>The American healthcare system is so expensive because of the regulations and the equipment.
Other Western nations don't have regulations and equipment that work just fine? No, the cost is primarily because of insurance companies. Drug companies in particular are an issue too, but the entire concept of insurance based healthcare is fucking retarded. There's a reason Europe mostly ditched that model after WW2 when there were too many kids with detached limbs to worry about insurance paperwork.
>You try rushing a friend to a hospital 80 miles away to find out they don't even have electricity nor an X-ray machine.
Where the fuck do you live, Africa?
>You take much for granted.
lol, yeah, I take the fact I went years without dental care because of money issues for granted. Thank god at least the dental clinic I couldn't afford to go to had an x-ray machine.

Judging by his frame his cracktec was in .40 limp wrist. It was mostly injuries which makes sense with a underpowered cartridge for people with weak wrists.

How can you tell? The image is too compressed for me to be able to read the engravings. Magwell size? .40 and 9 are too close in size to reliably tell.

I wouldn't think .40 would be on most zoomer's radar. It's mostly for boomers who bought into the underpowered 9mm meme back before we had a plethora of online resources to provide actual data to dispute fudd lore, after which it became clear that any advantage .40 offered over 9 was marginal, and came at a significant penalty to capacity and felt recoil. At least at the time it was popular we had the AWB to render the capacity issue irrelevant, but now? Nobody wants .40s these days.

I'm not saying that US healthcare isn't without issues. The amount of fraud I see in it disgusts me too. I'm saying it's better than 99% of the world.
But your "solution" is worse than the disease itself in the system as a whole, perhaps in a vaccum.

If you're well off, it absolutely is. You're at ground zero for most medical innovations.
If you're poor, good luck, and if you fall through the cracks like my family did, you're totally fucked.

Explain your reasoning. What makes, say, New Zealand's healthcare system (which was what I was comparing the US to in my original post) inferior to the American healthcare system?
