That doesn't matter _if people don't trust the hospitals_. Whether or not there's a reason for it is insignificant.
> as I've not seen the alleged behaviour at all
As an aside, one anecdote doesn't mean that there's no reason to mistrust the hospital. I have elderly relatives in care homes, and I've not seen them abused. That doesn't mean there's not a problem with abuse in care homes here in the UK
- geodel 5y agoExactly right!. Some people take their own example from a privileged position and claim that everyone can get same treatment/service.
- hiyer 5y agoWell, it's not one anecdote - it's 70+ in my apartment complex and probably 100+ overall, but I get your point.
- eldaisfish 5y agoit is one anecdote. Too many indians of privilege do not appreciate the fact that the majority of the country does not have that same privilege. Seventy people around you are all in the same social strata as you.
- hiyer 5y agoAre you saying not being admitted to a hospital is a privilege? I would think that if a hospital did want to fleece someone, gainfully employed and insured people would be the best candidates rather than poor people who may not be able to afford the treatment.
- fragmede 5y agoTrusting hospitals is the privilege being referred to.
