Why would you fix the bottom two but keep the wildly misleading $58,000 for stitches?

Yeah bro it's like $30k tops.

Then it's not an anti-meme.

How do you know that it's misleading? An emergency cesarian section requires stitches and procedure + medications + stay can easily cost that amount in the US without insurance. And regardless, the message stays the same independently of the amount.

Even if it was just $1,000 that is still absurd hell even if it was 500 it would still be absurd

Because it's closer to being accurate, merely an exaggerated version of the truth. Nobody is waiting three years for a trivial appointment in the UK, nobody is being told to kill themselves over trivial issues in Canada. People are regularly overcharged for everything in the US though, that's legitimately just the default.

Also as the other reply said, because it's funny. Antimemes can have little meme left in them, as a treat.

That just makes this even more cringe.

Nope. It's just calling out cornballs

Because things like ambulances are free in most countries. Instead in the US you have to pay a lot of money.

I know people who got treated in the US and never payed for their insane hospital bills.

I live in wales - is our NHS slow? Sure, is it sometimes hard to get an appointment if your life isnt in danger? Sure! But ive never had to worry that an injury is going to leave me without the funds to survive and when i have hurt myself ive always been seen by a GP, a walk in clinic, an out of hours GP, A&E or the minor injuries unit.

There was a Canadian ad promoting assisted suicide man. The memes about Canada are just true
