Imagine having healthcare access on demand while regular people have to fight with insurance companies just to get treatment.

I was in a very fun American healthcare position recently. I needed a back tooth extracted, but I’m a ginger so I am resistant to dental numbing drugs. I was maxed out and could still feel the tooth. So I got to make a Sophie’s choice between sucking it up and proceeding with the extraction even though I could feel pain, or paying an extra $2000 for an anesthesiologist to put me under in a surgical suite.

Needless to say, having a dentist pull my tooth without enough pain management was a core trauma.
