If you are poor

You say "not rich" funny.

The cost of healthcare - acute and preventative - was a major factor in my decision to cut short my stay there after 5 years and abandon my green card options. I was working in I-T for a great company with what I was told by a work-chum was a great medical plan; so I was up there for earnings among the 99%. Top-ten, maybe top-5%.

Fuck no. I can't hinge my future on ensuring I don't get taken to the wrong hospital by an ambulance.
