The free market works for a lot of stuff. It does not work for healthcare.
There is absolutely nothing free market whatsoever about American healthcare.
If you can make your own way to Northern Africa you should be able to barter your way onto a people smugglers boat across to Europe. It’s a risky crossing but many make it for the hope of better work and healthcare prospects.
Bro I bet if you did allll that work and took all that risk just to make your life maybbeee better that at the end of the day the people living in the place you made it to would be blown away by your incredible bravery and resolve and would welcome you with open arms into their society and economy!

Or maybe they would just pay their coast guard to troll around drowning migrant boats with heavily armed speed boats with expensive lights on and an automated voice message that says “go home” and shrug and say “well we tried!!” as families drown right in front of their eyes.
Can confirm this is what happened when I got to Australia.
Make it make sense.
The price was bullshit to begin with. The cream probably sells over the counter for about $2.50 in most other countries, so OP still ended up paying 10x the price.
Its a tax scheme.
The pharmacy claims this medication is worth $275, insurance covers $40, and then they get as much as they can out of the patient while claiming the rest as a loss they can write off on their taxes.
US healthcare is stupid.
You should really be replacing
