You people still don't get it do you? 

I *know* no hospital would refuse me.
I've Medicare A+B in any case.

I've seen indigent people run up 3/4 million dollar
hospital bills and never blink an eye nor attempt
too pay cent one.

I have not.

None of the injuries I sustained would have been helped in the least
by running to a hospital.

The spinal injury is permanent and unfixable.
The stroke was relatively mild and had no followup.

So other than running up an enormous hospital bill, sleeping in clean
sheets changed out every day, watching cable T.V. and checking
out the nurses just exactly do you people imagine
would have been the gain?

So you reduce your salt intake, drop some weight and never
ever think about touching alcohol.

Any of you Harvard Medical school graduates have anything to add?
