You are an uninformed, misguided conservative sheep that believes everything fox news tells you.
Lol,I deal in facts. Your only rebuttal has been, I don't like the source. You have yet to post a single line from any source, biased or not, to support any of your claims. Your posts simply can't be taken seriously, they do provide hilarious entertainment though.

Too funny, Bri. I have, lots. When you grow up, you'll understand people can have similar experiences to you, and still see things in a different wy.

Cheers!

That is not completely irrelevant. That is a real story for tens of thousands of Americans year after year. I cannot believe you just cast that aside. That simple demonstration is entirely why health insurance needs to be provided to everyone.

Chemo treatment is expensive. There is no reason for it being so, it simply is. The price is gauged because people need it to stay alive and therefor will pay exorbitant amounts for it. How do you expect me to know why they charge the price they do?

I don't think one can simply compare the US with Europe. The former is a heterogeneous country, the latter a group of countries. There are huge differences between US states as well, Mississippi and Connecticut are worlds apart, just like Portugal and Germany.

Yes you deal in biased facts.

Aww... please don't start crying.

You people are a piece of work.

Sigh, I am on a fools errand, I am trying to make you understand why healthcare is expensive in this country, but you re resistant to learning. I expect you to understand why prices are what they are, since you are pontificating about them.
