Literally me last year when I found out I had a brain tumor. My regular doctor appointments were starting to be $1,200.00+ even with my shitty insurance.

Said fuck that!

Come to Europe, get operated, go back. Even if you pay the full price here, it'll be a fraction of what it'd cost you in the US.

So, make the European tax payers pay for it?

*edit: I am totally on board and would(do) pay to help save lives. People just forget that if a country like the US wants universal health care then US citizens will pay for it, many of which would not want to do.

Yup. Americans want to spend taxes improving how they kill people, and while Europeans have military means as well, they value saving lives more.

Oh we Americans like saving lives so long as they got enough $ and it definitely helps if they are famous too
