TIL a major surgery with a massive incision is considered "for their own comfort". Just be childfree and be done with it.

It is that but the biggest issue IMO is that anyone would need to go into debt to pay for medical care.
what the hell is wrong with these countries that have the capacity to pay or the medical expenses that a person has thrown at them cause sometimes life just sucks and is unfair , lets be honest ....but choose not to?!?
What's even sadder is that in generic polls over 60% of Americans want a form of universal healthcare. The problem is the current system is so good at extracting money from people pushes for real change get immense push back from the entrenched medical industry. Even looking past the shitty corrupt insurance companies basically all pharmaceutical companies around the globe benefit from it too much to to let it go quietly. Americans only account for 27% of global income for pharma but are 64 - 78% of profits. Here is a source for those stats, its a bit old but I bet the numbers are even worse these days. https://schaeffer.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/01.2018_Global20Burden20of20Medical20Innovation.pdf
