Not that I didn't have the money to pay it, but it was just off-putting how they came in while I was essentially still being treated to remind me that I fucking owed them $35!

I had a similar experience the other day. I was in a restaurant and the waiter came to the table and wanted me to pay for the food I'd eaten, right then and there. What nerve!

With all due respect, HLJ, that's hardly the same thing. You choose to go to a restaurant, or not. If you need health care, there isn't much choice involved (except for the fact that poor people tend to not seek out routine health care or even put off seeking care when they think they may be ill due to the cost. This factor actually supports the universal health care idea.)
