    Australian here.

    Just took my wife to the ER twice this weekend. Stressy.

    Blood tests, consults, medication, drip, snacks and drinks, the lot.

    $0

      Can you imagine, on top of all that stressy, you had a MASSIVE , life-altering bill?!

      What the fuk kinda social agreement is that?

      …Like what’s in it for the average yank now?
