  • My experience working on the ambulance the last few years:

    You know who calls 911? Poor people.

    It's so, so rare that we go to a nice house. It's constantly the worst neighborhoods, the shittiest houses with no heat and no insulation, with people sleeping 4 to a room . People get sick from living in conditions like this. If you grew up and had a room in a warm house to yourself and food in the kitchen you had it better than like 30% of the population.

    And it's always that they are calling for things they needed to see a doctor for a week ago but they can't afford it, and now whatever they have is so bad that now they need the ED.

    5 dollars worth of antibiotics or insulin or pain medication could have solved this problem a week ago but no, poor people have to suffer.
