Holy crap... TIL that the USA has a specialized savings account for medical expenses. Like... if they know it's inevitable that people have to spend money for their health in one way or another, this is kinda like the ultimate "Don't care if you die or suffer" attitude. Surely the bureaucracy to figure out the tax codes behind this kind of thing would costs more than just implementing universal health care... wouldn't it?
It sure would but then what will happen to all their billionaire friends? We can’t expect them to have only one yacht! The real kick in the dick was they made the FD go on it but management and town hall staff got to keep the good health plan.
