[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wiped out our entire savings on medical care and am not done paying the bills. I guess we’re lucky we had the money but, I agree it sucks to have to take a lot of money from savings. [/quote]

This doesn't just suck - this is emblematic of a much bigger issue.  House repairs, car repairs, that's one thing.  But sucking your savings dry and then some just to keep yourself healthy - that should not happen in a civilized enlightened society.[/quote]

What could be more important and valuable than your health? As someone with a chronic disease, I pay a ton but it’s worth every penny to keep me alive, to employ the highly skilled people who keep me alive, and to have access to the very best in technology.[/quote]

It's just not like getting your yard done. Call me a liberal pinko but I don't think that anyone should have to spend their savings to be healthy. I think it's something that we as a society should take care of together.

Also just eff these big bills. We are paying an $8k tax bill that is going to really hurt out savings. Like take them down real low and have us starting again. Thanks to the gods that we have stable jobs these days.[/quote]
