I have access to an emergency room in exchange for bankruptcy, and higher education is only attainable through a loan that rivals the size of a mortgage from 10 years ago.
Do you have access to clinics or family medicine?
Do you have access to community colleges and trade schools?
Quite frankly no, due to them being cost prohibitive. Myself and many others forego healthcare due to the bills we know we can't afford, thanks to obscenely high deductibles.
No, community colleges and trade schools are also prohibitively expensive for most people unless you take out a student loan that rivals what mortgages were just 10 years ago.
It's as if you don't go outside and touch grass, or talk to common people. I'm guessing we should just pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, except we don't have socks, let alone shoes or boots with straps to even tug on. Fuck you're annoying.
"Do you have access? blah blah blah fucking blah I don't read shit or have a clue about what reality actually looks like"
You choosing to forgo medical care, or higher learning is your choice, you still have access to it. You may be one of the bottom 1%, where being a barely literate peasant is an improvement on your life.
Things have cost, the expensive community college, ~5k for a full year, has to pay their teachers. There's not not some huge profit grab.
