US healthcare system is tip-top.

Best doctors, best medication, best med tech, and also no long waiting periods.

The only problem is cost.

Healthcare *can* bankrupt you in the US if you're not careful; in fact, it's the #1 leading cause for bankruptcy in the US.

Your choice is to either pay for expensive insurance with shitty coverage and high deductibles (meaning insurance will only "kick in" after you pay a certain X amount out of pocket first), or just pay out of pocket, which is not advisable at all.

US hospital bills are priced to fleece insurance companies, they're not priced for regular people to pay out of pocket.

If you have good insurance, that's great, you'll get treatment with any specialist you want, and it will be mostly covered.

However such good insurance typically cost $500-1,000/mo.

You pay even if you don't use it for the whole year.

There must be a better way, but sadly the US government has never figured it out.

from today on, stop posting about malaysia. don't become like some  angau divorcee who wanted to get back together, still caring about this ex country. in fact why not close this account. we will consider you as trash disposed and vice versa.

Yup, people don't understand what life is like for people like me.

I'm walking on eggshells all the time.

For the rest, they can just go back to their home country if anything happens in the US.

For me, I have nothing -- it's the US or just be a ghost, stateless and without home.

As long as I was on work permit, asylum, PR, I constantly felt like I was on parole.

A little mistake, and they'll just revoke everything and send me back, and I can't risk that ever.

This is why my criminal record is so clean in the US, even traffic tickets I've only ever had 2 in 10 years.

No arrests, no charges, no nothing.

Now that I'm a citizen, I can never be deported anymore, but that doesn't mean I start acting like a fool and start courting trouble.

It's a good idea to stay on the good side of the law, citizen or not, deportable or not.

I would like to know:
1) why did you post that bkt thing, during Ramadan no less? Was it part of your plan to get asylum in another country?

2) why did you do that bkt stunt with vivian, knowing it would definitely get her in trouble too?

3) wrt no.2 above, was vivian supposed to flee together with you but somehow got cold feet?

Keeping it all under wraps for now, but it's in progress.

Anything to escape America's healthcare system, tipping system, shady opaque pricing system, and worst of all, child support/family court system, not to mention double taxation (state and federal income taxes, f*ck that...).
