Andy -
I'm sorry to hear about your father. Human nature is the same all over the world. It's the systems and choices of our cultures that often impact us the most. Medical care has gone CRAZY in this country in the last few years. In the two articles that follow, you have (i) a family who wants to work and be productive, but is forced into poverty to keep their daughter from dying due to a decision from an insurance company, and (ii) an elderly couple suffering with dementia who are forced to get divorced in order to preserve any of their assets. This is not unusual. This could happen to almost anyone in the US, no matter their station in life.
