“Hmmm…let’s see. Gould estimates that $1 million was spent on the care of her friend. There are 300 million Americans. For everyone to get that kind of care would be $300 TRILLION. That is larger than the economy of the entire planet.”
If a nation were so unlucky that every one of its citizens became this ill in the same year then I think it would bankrupt whatever system was in place, the insurance industry couldn’t pay out $300trn any more than the government could.
Luckily it aint gonna happen.
