@VeroniqueB99 You have to pay for a tumour in the US? Here in Europe cancer patients get them for free. They're usually even trying to get rid of them as quickly as possible.

@steeph @VeroniqueB99 No, no, you misunderstand. In America, *curing* tumours is a for-profit business.

Yeah, revolting, isn't it?

@steeph ...In the US you have to pay for EVERYHING.

@steeph @VeroniqueB99 Here they'll come after your family after one dies because medical bills Will Be Paid In Full.
