    I’d wager many of us have been both multiple times, over our lives without even realizing it.

    Actually understanding this?, now that’s the first step to truly understand.

      I’ve been in both positions – dirt poor and couldn’t get care, and also decently well-off (not rich) and still couldn’t get care, even with good insurance.

      Now I’m destitute, partly because of health care debt, and am struggling to get any care at all. I seriously feel like the system actively wants me to die.
