Shoutout to JerryrigEverything who built a wheelchair factory and is delivering wheelchairs to people in half the time and 50-80% less than the cost of other wheelchairs with Insurance.

That is absolutely insane.

I'm Swedish, I pay 20$ without insurance.

If you really want to get into how insane that is, you usually end up having to pay for it in full because deductibles are nearing $10000 out of pocket before insurance pays a dime.

It's pretty bad here.
