it would be if he wasn't joking

I never liked the idea of paying anything privately, they'll do things that don't need doing just for the like dentist, pay someone a set wage, so they'll do what needs doing

regarding the phils, when my stepsons g/f gave birth, my misses said they better not perform a CS, for a 19yr old i think the % rate who need a CS is well below 20%, and guess what the hospital said she did needed a CS

and the prices triples ,
and what kind of treatment you get in the phils in many cases depends on your ability to pay for it
