      I’m in America and this isn’t an issue. I don’t know anyone where this isn’t an issue, in fact there’s this thing in America called SSI designed specifically to help the chronically unhealthy without even a need to work.

          It depends on the state, but it’s not like it’s not there for people, which debunks the idea the American system doesn’t care about health, as poorly prepared as the healthcare system might be.

              I didn’t say it was able to help everyone. No stipend can do that. But the comments that led up to this conversation claimed America “doesn’t care about health” (hence why my first guess about what country they were alluding to was the one most people first think of when talking about human rights abuse).
