      Lack of doctors. Education costs a bajillion and if you at lucky you get to work triple shifts.

      I just hate going to the Dr. So I don’t go unless I have too.

      It also sucks that my local hospital group got bought out by a corrupt mega group and to get good care I have to drive 3 hrs away.

    When you pay $8,000 a year for insurance, you can’t afford to use it.
