Yes because the billionaires are so broke.

Maybe bring a mirror.

Did that in Hong Kong, sans mirror. Two ladies stood on my shoulders back to back and hooked arms. Then they were marching to Pretoria. Very relaxing.

But the billionaires get a tiny, tiny portion of why you pay. The majority of your medical bill goes to people who are living paycheck to paycheck and desperately trying to keep the lights on.


But since your own health is not important to you, I can understand why the health of other people isn’t, either.

Comparing me to Trump is just childish and stupid, unless for some bizarre reason you imagine that Trump is concerned about low-wage workers (YOU clearly aren’t).

Bought some ice/heat pads, those are helping. Bought a sling too, but damn I cant get it to work on my affected arm. I can get it to work on my good arm. Got some heat cream too.

I see your aversion to spending money on a doctor visit has caused you to spend money on home remedies. Aren't you concerned that some of your cash is going to end up in the pockets of the Big Ineffectual Guesswork Treatment industry?

Not about home remedies, it is about price gouging. FYI I am not rich. I have to stretch what my mother left me for a minimum of 8 years to reach social security. You tell me what business does a hospital have charging anyone 20k for a mere two days stay, for my last time unrelated to this. If I went to the doctor every time I felt bad I'd be broke. I've struggled long before my mom passed away, and I am not about to give that money to some corporate goons. 

If I  bite the bullet and go now, I pay more, and that means I have less to live on to reach social security. 

FYI, this was NOT the first time I had this same shoulder pain. It happened to me last year as well. It was a bitch for almost a week, but I got out of it time and patience.

A gallon Zip-Loc filled with ice works just as good an ice pad.

Ice Pad? Oh is that the software company Ice T founded?
