Do people have to pay when they call the police? Do people avoid reporting a crime because it's too costly? So people have to do fundraising because they can't afford the police to investigate a crime that happened to them?
That's what the US healthcare looks like from outside. "Paying for calling the police? Don't be stupid, dear!" Yes, exactly.
