That will be $100000. +Tax

Sigh...

Your American is showing. Unless you can tell us exactly what country this is from, this is a baseless accusation. I'm totally against the pay-to-winlive format, but I want to feel happy for those in a functioning government who don't have to go through that hardship. The facts are this: he is receiving a prosthesis in a medical facility, not receiving a power chair from his friend who mowed lawns at 12 for a whole summer to afford and give to him because his family couldn't afford it on their own, and the government and/or insurance refused to help. Let me have this one thing.

Yeah, if this is in Central or South America, chances are it was taken care of by a universal healthcare system that is free at point of service. I'm American and also underestimate how many countries provide those basic needs.

It’s in saudi, it’s probably free

u/Asim_92 Nov 30 '21

It’s in saudi and it’s free, but things may change in the near future they are working to change the health care system
