People on the Seattle NextDoor app were complaining about the long waits for the ER. Blaming our terrible health insurance (it should be free!), not paying hospitals enough, covid, etc.
Somebody suggested to go in at 5 am when they weren’t so busy. I said “If you can wait until 5am it isn’t much of an emergency is it? And why do you think the other “normal” times are so busy? Illegals and people with no insurance (now also illegal not to have it!) going to the ER for regular stuff so they don’t have to pay for it.”
Pretty sad that with over 50 posts I was the first to point out the obvious. But it is Seattle.
Saw that Seattle is now also complaining about schools over filling with migrant kids. It was just a few months ago schools suggested closures because of declining public school enrollments.
Side bar - none of these migrant kids parents pay any city taxes that conributes to schools. Guess who will pay for them??
