If you're poor you just wait until you're borderline dying and then go to the E.R. and get charged $120,000 and then never pay it and then have debt collectors calling you for the rest of your life.

Or you're on Medicaid if you live in a sane state.

Medicaid is available in all 50 states.

It is not available to all poor people in all states

All the non-expansion states make it available too; just at a lower income threshold or other requirements.

Making a statement that most poor people in America can’t get epi-pens is false. Most poor people can for free.

There are 26 million uninsured in the US and deductibles also exist for everyone so this is just blatantly false

[trollbridge]

I guess it depends on how you define “poor” and “uninsured”. Considering most of America offers Medicaid expansion or ACA plans, being uninsured is basically a choice.

Im sure the 4 million uninsured kids could’ve sold lemonade on the weekends or something
