This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You literally just described American healthcare. I don't know where people get this idea that you don't have to wait to see a doctor here. I've had to book doctors appointments months out. And specialists can be 6+ months of waiting.
I think the Americans that say otherwise actually don't try to go to the doctor on a regular basis. And if you press them on why, they'll admit it is a fucking hassle and worried about the bill if they need to actually get something done.
