@dallo I'm a retired US adult, considered a "success", cuz I own my home, my land, my car, my computer.
I don't go to the doctor.
Folks who live in most other countries have no idea how awful the health calculus is in America.
If you can still walk, and over-the-counter medicine and/or whiskey won't fix it, you don't fix it.
