    Hahaha I forgot about that part altogether; even if you just buy healthcare here, it’s cheaper. Gotta love that single-payer negotiation with unions!

    I understand that american health care is the most expensive in the world, and also doesn’t provide quite as good health outcomes as the rest of the ‘developed’ world.

    Take it from me: you are both more than welcome to visit, any time, to buy cheap health care.

    Did you know that Canada is Cuba’s biggest export partner? And guess what one of the main things we buy from them is. Yep, medicine haha :heart-sickle:

      If we lived closer to Cuba we'd certainly just go there. I remember my friend broke his leg hiking in Canada and ended up paying $75 for all his healthcare. It would have been $15,000 in the US, and I am not kidding.

        That price difference is just too much for me. It’s fucking baffling, and infuriating. That was an early part of my pilling from straight anarchist to non-denominational communist, was seeing Sicko. And the americans go to Cuba and get a 60 dollar puffer for 60 cents, and all this free care from the doctors.

        Socialism is, just, so obviously superior aha it’s inarguable. $15,000 dollars for a 75$ procedure. 0.5% the price here for the same thing like ten feet over the border. Death to america, long live americans :heart-sickle:
