              He was almost defeated by a glass of water and a slight incline the last time he was president and his brain is pretty clearly Swiss cheese.

              Good healthcare has its limits.

              Even the best health care is only as good as the patient’s willingness to listen to an expert. Unless there’s some poor intern being tasked with wrapping Donvict’s meds in cheese so he’ll swallow them, that might not matter.

              More money does not mean better treatment per se. The standard of care is the same for rich and poor. He may be able to get more doctor opinions and have an easier time getting meds/etc. though.

                  “Oh, I see that you’re a rich - come with me to the executive wing of the hospital where we keep the cures”

                  No - the standard of care is not defined based on who or how much you have. You treat the same disease with the same treatment. Rich people can just afford treatments easier.

                    That’s not what standard of care refers to solely. You’re last sentence shows that the standard is not the same. Being able to afford things that others can’t, being able to pay for early access to specialists, and diagnostics are exactly what I mean by differing standard of care.
