Definitely agreed (I’m from Germany though, so: outside perspective)
However, what I was pointing out is that we ourselves have to be our own advocates under any system. The original OP thing about only his wife dragging him in, this thread’s OP about being cut with a knife… No doctor can do magic and no matter who pays them, they won’t be able to keep anyone healthy if they sabotage themselves. It’s super important to make good and responsible decisions about our health in our day-to-day lives. Don’t drink, don’t smoke, eat lots of whole foods and plants, move etc.
Just sounded like you were saying that even if we have universal health care that it won’t do any good because people will still do dumb stuff like this…
As if that were an excuse as to why USA has a medical bankruptcy health care system.
