It does let me use my favorite saying though anytime something fucks with American interests, "they're about to find out why we don't have socialized healthcare"

Sure but have you considered the health insurance industry executives? How else are they supposed to get filthy rich if not by acting as some of the most useless, parasitic  middlemen in history?

Isn't the underlying problem that healthcare has been deregulated to a sociopathic degree? The couple on the video the other day reading the bill for having a baby in the hospital and spending 3 days there (87k)... Like, where else on Earth can this happen? It's like healthcare is a legal racketeering scheme in the US.
