Go hiking in insane heat with just a little water bottle. You're going to die in an area with no cell phone service and it's going to suck the entire time.

even more, will call emergencies and search & rescue services who will fly helicopters to the back of the mountain to pull out a dumbass wearing flipflops.

in our country it's not yet charged but in such idiot cases, it should be.

They have to start doing health insurance (which is where an emergency rescue is or should be billed) like car insurance.

If it's your fault, you have to pay much more.

And if you can't afford the post your-fault car insurance you don't get to drive a car, so if you can't afford the post your-fault health insurance you don't get to live?

Fair counterpoint. Can't think of how to solve that stress test of the proposed system.

I assumed this was for tourists, so you don't get to visit other countries anymore.
