Igetmyown247: I'm sure you believe that your imaginary god created everything on earth, right? I guess your answer would be a resounding "Yes". Then why did your god create the evil you mentioned? Another question is: Why haven't you religious people killed the "devil" or wiped away "evil" with your numerous prayers, services and 'taring' nights? If you are worshiping a true living god, why not? I hope you'll be civil in your response. Some of you religious people become rude and disrespectful when questioned. |

AdmiralDru: you are high on oshogbo weed. the US is better than Nigeria because by law you must be treated even if u don’t have insurance or have a dime with you, every US publicly funded hospital will treat you .. even private ones. yes, they will send u a bill but they won’t let u die at that moment of medical need..HOWEVER in your Nigeria, the doctor wil not treat u if u don’t make a deposit so how is Nigeria better than the US? check up in most small family doctors offices is $50 if you don’t have insurance ... the way we see $50 here is the way you get N800 in Nigeria so what’s big deal? this is private clinics ooo if it’s public hospitals and you don’t have money they will still treat u after seeing the doctor SO how is Nigeria better? health care costs for catastrophic illnesses like cancer is a lot of money but who will seize your house because u treated yourself in their hospital in America? no one will do that and stop spreading fake news ..yes most people may end up filling for bankruptcy because they do not want bill collectors to continue calling their phone to pay their medical bills BUT at least they are alive to use that bankruptcy protection. How many Nigerians in Nigeria with health issues will pray to file for bankruptcy if that is all that is needed to save their lives ??.. i know of a naija man who had cancer he is illegal in America and still gets treated by the public hospital for free because a lot of charities help him too through the hospital so shut up if u don’t know what u are saying yes someone can lose their home if because they are sick and could not work and so couldn’t pay their mortgage/ the mortgage company will take your property because the money they lent u to buy the house is investors money so how is that linked to poor health care?? 1 Like |

ogbonti: Like I said earlier, American health care is one of the worst in the world. Bruh, the average American would rather take uber in an emergency cause you using the hospital ambulance can be as expensive as $1000. https://www.statnews.com/2017/04/05/uber-lyft-emergency-room-ride/ https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/carolineodonovan/taking-uber-lyft-emergency-room-legal-liabilities Also, the US health care is very expensive and renders the average person bankrupt. Cause simple cases that won't cost up to ₦100k here could cost about $100,000k in the us. That's why most Americans self medicate and don't go to the hospital till the condition gets worse. https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/medical-waste-american-health-care-expensive/ https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/080615/6-reasons-healthcare-so-expensive-us.asp You may get quality healthcare in some Hospitals in the US but that's not the case everywhere. I could go on but don't have time for that now. Even Europeans take a jab at Americans through their healthcare cause they know it's shit. Don't know why you even arguing this since you claim to be from there.

AdmiralDru: I do see there are alot of misconceptions in your response and I was almost tempted to ignore it BUT I felt a need to respond so you do not misinform others here due to your shallow and narrow minded stance on issues about a country that you have not visited or lived in 1. average American would rather take uber in an emergency cause you using the hospital ambulance can be as expensive as $1000 what is the meaning of emergency? in a lay man's term - it imply an abnormal situation that could trigger unintended consequences - such as an accident, shortness of breath, pregnancy labor, gun shot wounds, heart attack - all that - so who will be in this situation and be fit enough physically and mentally to take an UBER? - by your very response here- you have shown you do not know what what an emergency is - secondly, the paramedics, who come to get you, make you stable and ensure you get to the hospital before treatment, are they working for free? do you know the assets deployed when an emergency van moves to get the patient? all you see is $1,000 which i guess you have already multiplied by N360 or whatever the current exchange rate is - but you fail to realize a lot of skilled man power go into the process to ensure a high success rate. Does your life worth $1,000? I leave you to answer that 2. That's why most Americans self medicate and don't go to the hospital till the condition gets worse. while I do not dispute that American healthcare is inexpensive, what medical procedure exactly cost N100K in Nigeria BUT cost $100k in the U.S? you do not come to a public forum and attempt to misinform people. And again - you seem to have a problem with the cost of what dollar is as against naira - well I do sympathize with you because this behavior of yours is symptomatic of debilitating poverty. So, people should earn dollars in the USA and spend naira? I am trying so hard to understand the rationale for these comparisons. We live here - earn dollars and spend dollars - the only time I think of Naira is when I am visiting home, period, so get of the poverty mentality, ok? Most Americans self medicate? hmmm - this is deep! It shows you have never been to the U.S. and you are investing all your time and energy reading fake news blogs - Boy, here in the USA have 2 categories of medications. OVER THE COUNTER and PRESCRIPTIONS. Over the counter medications like Aleve, Tylenol - all that you can get on your own to relieve from mild aches and pain, fever and flu symptoms which is pretty much a basic standard world wide Prescription meds, you can not do self-medication like in Nigeria - i bet my 2 testicles, you can not walk into any pharmacy and get antibiotics in the USA without a prescription UNLIKE in Nigeria where you can get Ampiclox with a doctor note from a chemist store- so who are these Americans doing self prescription and who are the people selling it to them? Why would anyone be treating themselves: endangering their lives when they know they can walk into any hospital and be treated to be billed later ? and no one will ever force them to pay the bill if they dont have the money? You are really very naive!!! 3. may get quality healthcare in some Hospitals in the US but that's not the case everywhere you speak so boldly of a country you ave never been to - i laugh at your careless talks. you think the USA is Nigeria where anyone can open any clinic anyhow? every medical personnel here is certified and there are agencies who visit health care centers to certify standards every 3 months and IF ANY center fails the standards test, it is shut down because the government knows the patients will sue them if anything goes wrong. and LASTLY talking of Europeans laughing at Americans because of their poor health care --- 1, WHY DO so many LONDONERS have rotten teeth? yellow teeth? and crooked teeth? Is dental health care not part of the good and free health care in the UK? even most of the dead poor people in the USA have better looking teeth than MOST upper class Britons - you think that is by accident? 2. The Canada you are glorifying with those silly pics, Why do most Canadians leave their heaven of great health care to come to the USA for routine medical procedure? GUY - who God don bless, God don bless already - stop hating on the USA. no be we cause your poverty, no be me deny you visa BYE - am done with your foolishness! 1 Like |
Re: Coronavirus: US Consulate In Nigeria Cancels All Visa Applications by Nobody: 9:20pm On Mar 20, 2020 |
ogbonti: Baba, you're talking too much and out of point. The reason for the uber in place of ambulance is cause the ambulance bills you for the ride which is more expensive than taking uber. Also, paramedics would mostly ask for your your health insurance before they treat you so they can bill you. There's lots of complaints about this on Reddit, Quora and other social media networks. Nothing is free in the US and life there is expensive. I have siblings there and they tell me how things are going on a steady. Like I said, you're talking out of point. |

AdmiralDru: Wise man, how can UBER and Ambulance be on the same sentence when you are talking of an emergency situation? This is the problem with the way you think. Have you been in a life threatening emergency before like heart attack? does an uber car have defibrillator? can a victim of heart attack lay down in a recovery position in an Uber car while going through resuscitation on the way to the hospital? can oxygen be given - pulse monitored inside an Uber car when the victim is on the way to the ER? do you have sense at all ? or poverty is constraining your ability to think normally? yes - it is a standard procedure for paramedics or medical billing personnel to ask for your insurance - because that would save you a lot of money from billing. Just like when you have an accident, the police will ask for your car insurance just to verify if your vehicle is road worthy - so your medical insurance is asked of your when a medical emergency happens. In case that ambulance cost $1,000 (which is just an average - because not all ambulance cost that much, some cost more- some cost less depending on many factors) IF you have insurance that covers ER, you could end up paying as low as $50 co-pay while your insurance pays $950 for that ambulance - AND GET THIS INTO YOUR THICK SKULL - no one will tell you to pay first (like in Nigeria) before the ambulance takes you to the hospital. BY LAW- YOU MUST BE TREATED AND SAVED FIRST - before all that will play out- SO WHAT IS YOUR BEEF? you want medical practitioners to work for free? sorry, we don't do free stuff in America- we are a capitalist nation and not a socialist country, and most Americans do not like free stuff if they can earn and pay their way through life- YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND AMERICA FROM YOUR HE LL HOLE IN NIGERIA. the problem with you is that you have your calculator in your hand multiplying $$$$ by N360 but you forget we make dollars here as wages- not naira and we pay our bills here in dollars also. THAT IS YOUR PROBLEM - we will never pay our workers here with Naira ok? YES, nothing is free in America, but do your siblings tell you too that the USA is one place on earth you make money easily "IF YOU WANT TO WORK FOR IT ?" did they tell you that "no matter how bad it is" THERE IS ALWAYS JOBS FOR EVERYONE TO DO ? it may not be a dream job but you will always be able to feed yourself, put a roof over your head and clothes on your back? what type of work do your siblings do? are they making minimum wage of $7.25 an hour? If they make at least $30 to $40 an hour; which is normal - in a state like California where I live (they will not be this negative - telling you gloomy stories about America) LASTLY - did they tell you - IT IS A CRIME FOR ANY HEALTH CARE PROVIDER TO DENY YOU TREATMENT BECAUSE OF YOUR INABILITY TO PAY AT THAT MOMENT OF NEED? if your anger and frustration is about healthcare being expensive - then hustle - good life is not cheap!!! NOTHING GOOD CAN BE CHEAP, AND NOTHING CHEAP CAN BE GOOD. America is not the poverty capital of the world like Nigeria - we are a wealthy nation and wealth is created when people pay for services, not wishing to get things for free. IF you want good things to be cheap or free, then go to heaven, America is a country on earth - it is not heaven! |

Moety: The guy is just trying so hard to defend nothing. The American health care is shit and even the Average American complains about this. I have siblings there, I've spoken to people online who live there (whites) and discussed stuffs with them, they always complain about the healthcare. A simple Google search would reveal this to you. The main reason coronavirus spread in the US was cause, the test for the virus was expensive, I think about $2000 which is expensive for the average American. It was just recently their senate passed a Bill to ensure free test so people won't have to pay for it. All these information is available online, don't know why he's tryna argue it out. Lol 1 Like |

ogbonti: Like I said, you're talking out of point. Also, like I said earlier, the reason for the uber is not cause they tryna get to the hospital early, it's cause the uber is cheaper compared to the ambulance (the government would bill you for using an ambulance). Bruh, this is free information online. You don't need to argue it or try to prove a point. A simple Google search on "why Americans prefer uber to ambulance", and you would see lots of articles on the subject matter. Also, the reason most Americans didn't come out to test for the coronavirus was cause the test cost thousands of dollars (about $2000) and they weren't willing to get billed for that. It's just recently that Congress passed a bill to ensure free test for them so that people can come out and get tested freely. All these information available online, you don't have to argue it. Why do you think most of them work 2 to 3 jobs if not to cover up bills. My bro living in the us works 4 jobs, he even takes pills to sleep and he tells with how e dey go on a steady. I'm not against traveling or living abroad. I should be done with NYSC by the end of this year and I'll run my visa package, but definitely not to the US. I had a chat with a friend (a white girl) who was a student there also and she asked me if I would like to come, I politely declined. Bruh, one of the easiest ways to enter Yankee is if there's a citizen there who invites you, especially if the person is white. I have friends who I play pubg with and we got so close that I have their contacts and we chat on whatsapp, they also complain about lots of stuff to me. Life ain't rosy in Nigeria, but it also ain't rosy in the US. |
