Do you get phone calls from bill collectors?

WTF am I supposed to do when I have no money? It's medical bills. A day in the hospital is almost $10,000 and I don't have it. I tried paying them monthly but to them it wasn't enough and they sent my bills to collections anyway. I HATE AMERICA.

Gosh I had heard stories about this before.. that is really shocking a day in hospital costs that.. I suppose there's nothing I can say to change this.. it's unbelievable that a trip to the hospital can end up making a person poverty stricken.. something should be done about that... :/

@SW-User I think about leaving this country every day.

@StokedFox in Ireland if I need to bring my kids to the hospital it's a maximum of €100, if I go to the doctor first and get a referral it's free

@SW-User That to me seems exorbitant.... One can not know when they need to take someone to the hospital (I should like Canada more than I do?)
