Now there's an idea. And all this time I've been waiting for a few lottery numbers to pop.

If folks are that stupid, they deserve getting scammed and going under the knife.

Wow - I’ve been avoiding spinal fusion surgery for 15+ years now due to how risky it is. Hard to imagine perfectly healthy people undergoing that procedure for a payoff (the crooked lawyers and surgeons I can sort of understand but the patient risking their health and future mobility as well as a lot of painful rehab is hard to wrap my mind around).

“MS-13, RUSSIAN mobsters use migrants in elaborate injury scam”

Still not worth World War 3 just because a few Russians are scamming us.

I cry BS. The scans either show some kind of serious abnormality warranting spinal surgery, or not. But before surgery, there are dozens of 3d party people who have to weigh in on the advisability of fusion, vs other kinds of intervention. This is made-up Murdoch tabloid BS.

They should stick to the more plausible Bat Boy journalism.
