I have over $732 thousand dollars in surgeory, Don't insult me by telling me I don't know what I'm talking about, I have no debt and have never paid a single cent for a single medical bill. You must live in a differnt america then I do , or your brother doesn't have the brains of a fly or still lives with his parents and they make to much money for him to get his shit paid for, by the state. That or he didn't go to his local job and family services and apply for the state to pay it.

I live in Arizona, which is a red state, unlike Ohio. In our state workman's comp only pays for on-the-job injuries and there's next to nothing when it comes to cash from the state to pay for medical expenses. Most of what's available is for those who are below the poverty line (which is drawn far too low). Hell, our state legislature just voted to sell of state buildings and then lease them back to "save money". They also cut programs while at the same time trying to abolish the property tax. And yes my brother is living at home without a job. He's 14. Fourteen year olds don't have to work in America (at least not yet). He is kind of dumb, though. You got that right!
I do apologize for being overly harsh and insinuating. I should have been more polite and made it clear that I thought you didn't know enough about what the situation was like in other states. I, on the other hand, made the same mistake of looking at the American situation through the lens of my own state. For this as well I apologize. I'm still pretty set on emigrating, though. Health care was never the primary reason for that decision.
