you wouldn't feel BAD...not badly. You only feel badly if there is something wrong with the feeling in your fingertips. You feel mad, you feel sad, you feel bad.

if you think vets are a scam then you haven't seen much of the world yet.

I see this.
Sure there are some cleanING requirements needed at hospitals vs. vets buy not 10X. The people medical field is WAY more of a scam than most Americans believe, because we don't directly foot the bill for it.but in reality we do. Our companies can't pay us more because they have to pay Blue Cross Blue Shield premiums so much. This so, pinheads like medical sales reps and pharmaceutical sales reps can make 6 figures a year to peddle shite that any ordinary salesman could sell.

LSU vet school makes you pay in advance. They are like vultures when you are mourning your pets.

They make you pay in advance because deadbeat owners want the "do everything you can for my pet" care, don't listen to the estimates for costs and then skip out on the bill when it's done. And when you contact them about the bill, they threaten a malpractice lawsuit which means you either forget the charges or deal with the BS associated with fighting a malpractice complaint.

It seems they try to get a read on you as to whether or not you'll be willing to drop thousands of dollars on your pet and if they don't get that vibe then they recommend putting the animal to sleep pretty much no matter the ailment. Had a vet tell me I needed to put my mom's cat to sleep because it was limping OR get a $1600 procedure to fix torn ligaments. I opted to wait it out and sure enough, after letting the cat walk it off for another 2 months it was back to normal on its own without any intervention. WTF, dude?

Willing to bet there are those who would say the same about you and you've had more than 13 years to prove them wrong.

People like you should not own a pet. They have needs and from a relative standpoint, Veterinary medicine is extremely inexpensive for what you get and you always have the option for euthanasia.
When I was in private practice, I performed spinal cord surgery on a rear end paralyzed dachshund. Surgery plus 3 days recovery and charged $700. After anesthesia, supplies and medical equipment we had to buy for the surgery we cleared $100. That for a 2+ hour surgery and aftercare.
Scam? You're an idiot

Agreed. If you can't afford vet bills, just don't buy the pet.
Someone else that has the money will, and take better care of the animal because they aren't worried about spending a few hundred-$1,000 here or there.
