Disgust at Economic Obliviousness: Dentist, Periodontist.

You know what really pissed me off this past month?

The dentist said I should come in more often for cleanings, and then after a consultation on gum recession the periodontist quoted me a crazy high price for restorative procedures.

I said it was really beyond my means right now, and would be for the foreseeable future due to my unstable low-wage employment.

"But it's preventative," both were like.

As if that makes any difference!

People who have high incomes really don't understand what a $1000 or $2000 is to people with no stable income and no cash tucked away.
