THE FAILING HEALTHCARE SYSTEM
The adage “health is wealth” holds true globally, as good health is crucial for a long and prosperous life. Unfortunately, maintaining physical well-being is only sometimes a straightforward task. It’s concerning that 41% of Americans fall into medical debt yearly, especially in a country as advanced and affluent as the United States.
This statistic, according to a report by the Kaiser Family Foundation, defies comprehension as healthcare should be considered a fundamental human right. And apart from medical debt, many Americans also owe mortgages and student loans.
