GH was always expensive as fukk for trauma center (the other departments used to be ran down as fukk like 15-20 years ago), its the hospital where anyone who gets shot etc is taken. Ie, you see that quip in the article about lawsuits filed back in 2009 and shyt.

I guess my point is that its not really zuck to blame here, these exorbitant prices been here. And that's scary as fukk - again, speaking of predatory practices.

At least SF people kinda have money compared to rest of america, I hate to think that 20k bill will probably force someone to the street or eating top ramen for a whole year :smh:
