my pops had diverticulitis, basically blew out his intestines, emergency surgery, like a 5 day hospital stay, medications etc all basically paid for, also during his stay they found he had kidney cancer, so months later when he was recovered from the diverticulitis he had a kidney removed in another stay at the hospital, with all kinds of screenings and monitoring shit and follow ups to make sure it didn't spread blah blah. meds etc. but again it was the same shit, he barely paid anything it was literally like 95 percent covered, he'd get 4 figure bills that would show he had to pay like 28 dollars and the insurance covered the rest. medicaid/medicare whatever he is on that he doesnt pay for
so basically why does the federal government need more of our money?

lol this is because ohio expanded medicaid for adults. florida hasn't. if you lived in florida he would have likely had to pay most of that.
@dillinger i just meant you said you saw it coming but it was hella close and he likely lost the same way brian kemp did
