Ok, that’s fine? We still don’t have an easy time accessing the cheap and simple stuff here. I have to keep going in to get a doctor to approve a non-controlled substance I’ve been taking for a decade. It has no habit-forming effects. It has no use as a precursor. It has no use recreationally. It’s a worthless, ongoing expense.

Why are you defending this awful, awful system? Have you had even one good experience? Not “well, that wasn’t awful”, but truly one GOOD experience?

Hospitals here don’t even follow up to see if your medical care was effective.

Hell, I’d even take Australia’s approach, where basic stuff is free and you pay for additional coverage.
