"A reasonable person knowing that they would die without treatment would surely take the enormous debt."

Single guy detected. Nothing wrong with that, just saying. Its a balance, lifelong economic death penalty for the three of them, vs they get to hang around with me for a couple decades... in the homeless shelter.

And that's assuming treatment means a cure. Most of the time, especially when the Drs are "mystified", all treatment means is the survivors are much poorer.

Currently I have great insurance, although that'll end soon enough, making these kind of balance decisions interesting in the future.




Excellent point. I hadn't thought about that.
