This is what our taxes pay for I'm sitting at the nearby park and I was charging my vehicle...

An old man in the park would never be able to pay off any substantial hospital bill. He will be harrassed for the money for the rest of his life. The Republicans don't want Old People, Poor People to have access to healthcare.

@Diotrephes Low income, no healthcare for you! Why do you think the Republicans are teaching their base that inclusivity is a bad thing?

All social issues in America have racist roots. The racists don't give a damn if their actions harm poor Whites, they just don't want a penny to go to Black people.

Good but the overall state of the healthcare system is still pathetic. Privatization and insane unjustifiable prices....

So we’re paying for secret service to protect a traitor, insurrectionist, and wanna be authoritarian dictator, this is also what our taxes pay for.

In Canada, he may get a $50 bill for the ambulance, but that is it.

Ambulance services in my area run over $2,000 but the insurance price is $305 out of pocket. It's a good idea to promptly pay the bill in case you need future service.

The thing that makes us human is that we give a sh*t about people for no other reason than they are people.. And that this seems to be draining out of some people is very disturbing...😷
