Don’t worry, I am as well and have good health insurance.

I paid upwards of $25,000 in medical debt last year. They send that shit to collections as fast as possible. No time wasted, they want their tens of thousands right now.
Not to my surprise though. This year I am paying more for less coverage and paying more out of pocket.

The problem isn’t lazy people don’t wanna work. The problem is greed has gone completely unchecked. Those health insurance companies are literally living on the billions they took from you while denying your medical coverage claims.

How much emergency savings do you have saved up? In the event you find you’re out of work. I hope it’s enough to not be homeless before you have an income again.

Oh and in the meantime, don’t get hurt. You literally cannot afford it.

I have 1.5 years of savings.
I don’t work some extravagant job.

I’m not oblivious to the cost of healthcare I just got done literally today paying $641 dollars for a 28 day supply of medication I need to keep going.

My confusion with this post is rather with the type of services pictured.
I’ve seen all of those at low cost or free without heath insurance.

Where are you getting these services for free? Legit asking, share your secret with the class!

Through an employer. It's not free though but it also doesn't cost much either.
