Our Medical System

by Bryan Strawser · Jan 25, 2003

Not sure how I feel about this…



Doctor to a young man, just 27 years old. “I have bad news, good news, and bad news.”


First the bad news. You have a terminal disease. Without treatment, you will die.


Now the good news. There’s a drug that will hold back the disease. Unless there’s a cure, you will have to take it for the rest of your life.


Now the bad news. The drug costs $700 per month. Your insurance will cover it. But if you get fired or laid off, eventually you will have to pay for it out of your own pocket, or die.


This is a real story.
