But I could just not take my prescribed meds. Think of all the money I could save. What could possibly go wrong?

Well, it's not like the dead have expenses. The funeral might need financing though.

Yea... funeral will cost more than my meds... sadness. Guess I'll keep paying 25$ a month. Luckily what I'm on is cheap, for now...

Hey, look on the bright side: While it's a problem, at least it won't be your problem. Ah, sweet death. The only known solution to the problem of taxation.

And the predations of other financial institutions.

Or, and hear me out America, you could try cutting out all the for-profit middle-men and indulge in some good old fashioned collective bargaining. It works for everybody else.

Alternatively, you could keep doing what you're doing. That's an option too, I guess.

Is just suffering and dying the key to lowering costs?
