I found this aphorism in my book of Korean aphorisms. I’m trying to do one of these each week.
네 병이야 낫든 안낫든 내 약값이나 내라
ne byeong.i.ya nas.deun an.nas.deun nae yak.gaps.i.na nae.ra
your illness-OF-COURSE recover-EITHER not-recover-OR my medicine-price-WHATEVER contribute-COMMAND
[Regardless whether] your illness is cured or not, you pay my medicine’s price.
This is how the US healthcare system works. And most healthcare systems, for that matter, but the price in the US is exceptionally high, I guess, and the insurance system is unreliable.
