Why is healthcare in the USA so uniquely fucked compared to literally any other country in the world?
>>218786821>wagesOur dentists, doctors, surgeons, and other specialists are ridiculously overpaid. Shit, even PT's and occupational therapists are making way too much compared to other western countries. It's crazy how dentists will pressure you to get all of your wisdom teeth extracted after getting your teeth cleaned
>>218786821Cause it's pay or die so that industry is sensitive to profit sharks
>>218786937>are ridiculously overpaidLol, lmao even
>>218786937people don't know this but the AMA is a union that has pushed to keep the number of doctors low so that wages would be high and are nakedly an rent-seeking, extractionary institution
>>218786937>dentists will pressure you to get all of your wisdom teeth extractedIt's so weird hearing stories like this or how your doctors are pushing expensive drugs on you. Here when you go to the pharmacist to get your prescription filled they often ask if you want this prescribed brand drug or a cheaper one? They come from the same manufacturer.America sounds like some dark dystopian society when it comes to healthcare.
