Non-American here, trying to understand.

Are these prices after insurance? If you have insurance through work, and you've paid a premium for "good" insurance (assuming you can do that for your family), are you still paying insane amounts for medicine and hospital care?

If it's covered under insurance then it's $5-$30 (depending on policy) for a co-pay and that's it. If it's not covered under your policy then it's eleventy bajillion dollars. The insurance will also pull stupid shit like not letting you pick up your refill early, or making you get some other medication that is similar, but not what your doctor prescribed. Of course the insurance company doesn't pay eleventy bajillion dollars, they've negotiated it down to 50¢, but that's what you'll pay if you don't have insurance.

Welcome to corporate America. This country cares about corporations, not people or labor.

For the next...forever, I want to know who you voted for before I'm going to listen to your sob story or show you any empathy.

Simple. You need it to live and will pay the cost.

Eat red meat and black olives? Iron is like 6% of the earths crust. It’s everywhere.
