    I was charged $12,000 to stay in an ER room while doctors did test after test on my 3 day old baby. We never got any results given to us and in the end we were told none of those tests were needed.

    An X Ray, two spinal taps, a dozen blood draws - not a single result. We went for low blood sugar. The hospital kept giving him tests so they could keep charging us. But that’s what you get when healthcare is for profit.

    Yeah the system we’re using right now in the US is amazing. /s

    When the question is “who cares” and commenting “no one” on a post about someone who cares… it doesn’t matter who you were responding to.

    Edit: You literally said “Show me someone who thinks this isn’t transphobic.” The OP. The OP does. You literally asked for this.






  • That’s a myth. Bartering wasn’t really a thing as it’s presented in most lower level history classes.

    Most civilizations dealt in community sharing before currency was invented.

    It wasn’t a case of “I have 3 chickens for your 12 loafs of bread.” It was more like “I grew more wheat than I need this season and my neighbors goats are producing more milk than they need. If we put it together, we both have a nice meal.”
