It's pretty fucked up that you Americans can not be home when you are sick.

    Agreed, we hate it too. Can't afford to stay home, can't afford to see a doctor.

    When I was living in Canada, my partner needed to go to the ER and get a blood clot removed. We were seen by a doctor within 45 minutes and the bill for a non-citizen on visa was $250. After we moved to the US, it happened again. It took 3 WEEKS, 2 referrals, and over $14k for the same procedure. Capitalism is cruelty.
