Thanks for this. I'm here in the US and a severe asthmatic, only lucky enough to (currently) have great healthcare that includes prescription coverage.
And the last time I tried to make a well appointment with my Primary Care Physician I had to wait THREE MONTHS.
And the last time I had to go to the ER with a serious but not acute issue on a weekend I had to wait six HOURS.
You know, here, in the US. They were rationing the available docs, you see, on more serious issues. Um, "triage" is what I think they call it. Even though I had insurance and money to pay, somehow I still had to wait.
Sorry about the lies about your healthcare and your country. You are only good enough, it seems, when you're backing up our neverending and underfunded wars against amorphous enemies.
That's terrible, especially for a condition like asthma. Incidentaly, what you said really struck a chord with my wife and she wanted to explain a little more about her experiences

There is, it seems, a part of American culture that would rather sit in front of a refrigerator with a gun until the food rots rather than share it out.
