I think you are correct. The worst part of this, he is participating in a risky sport uninsured, then whines when he gets hurt. I note that the water turned crimson. He thought he needed immediate care. And now bitches about the cost of the care that is required as a matter of law, not the choice of the physicians and nurses.
But he is ENTITLED to this and HAPPY to screw those who helped him. What if we providers had the right to refuse care — that might change things quickly.
It certainly pokes holes in the liberal fairly tale that the uninsured are dying in the streets, when they’re actually kiteboarding in florida.
