Yeah it does kind of look like a loaf of bread.

Anyway, this is just a reminder that free healthcare is IMPOSSIBLE, we just do not have the technology!

      there’s ambulances, they average out to about ~$1500 a ride of you’re uninsured, about $500 if you have insurance.

      also, there’s a good chance that your insurance isn’t contracted with that specific ambulance company, so you also run the risk of having insurance and getting a gigantic non-covered bill anyways.

      most people will call a cab to take them to the hospital these days, or just die, as the system seems designed to encourage.

      They do, but they run away from them since the eyoeyo ride plunge them into bankruptcy.

        There’s nothing that cures a broken leg faster than a US ambulance. There’s a famous film about it called Forrest Gump.
