I wish the men in my life would visit a doctor, get an annual check up, and take more preventative measures protecting their health.
Sounds expensive

Only in the US.

oh.

Other countries pay for it in high taxes. You pay for it somehow.

Every tiny bit of interaction with the medical system in the US costs a multitude of what the same interaction costs in other countries.

There’s a reason why “international medical insurance” for say European travelers excludes the US by default. And if it includes US, it costs 4-10 times as much.
