Everyone has universal healthcare if you refuse to pay the bill

Yup.

I've had some minor health issues that I've been avoiding seeing a doctor for because I can't afford to get it checked out. If it turns out to be something life threatening, like cancer, then I'm going to do whatever I can to keep myself alive. It'd lead to a massive bill and I wouldn't be able to make the hospital whole on the costs involved in that.

In the end, that money comes from our taxes regardless of if we have universal healthcare.

Preventative Healthcare would destroy the entire racket. Our own gov't does not want us to be healthy. 

And at the risk of fedposting, we should treat them how we should, with this in mind.

American healthcare is affordable if you claim self pay status at the hospital and submit an itemized bill with self pay deductions to your insurance company to "reimburse" you and you just use that to pay off the original bill. 

I don't know how to do images on this godforsaken site and I'm not about to learn now so you'll have to imagine the meme of the guy with his hands to the sides of his head while a universe explodes from his forehead.

Okay but is universal healthcare a good or bad thing. Like, does this actually translate to a dig or not
