now think of how many people are poor and/or dumb.

that's literally it.

you don't see non-proles in the waiting room that often because a non-prole do not go to the emergency room for dumb bullshit. if you have an actual emergency they don't put you in the waiting room. when people have a heart attack and they get triaged and skip the line. if you're actually admitted to the ER you'll see plenty of non-proles beyond the waiting room doors.

also, emergency emergencies don't often have visitors aside from a wife/husband. if it's a serious thing you wait until they are discharged to another part of the hospital to visit.

your experience is "typical" but it's just strongly outweighed by proles who have to wait 10x as long and show up to the er 100x more frequently than non-proles.

edit: oh yeah and another thing is that proles bring like their whole fucking family while non-proles will just bring one person.

you average prole is going to the hospital personally for dumb shit like 3x a year, and they're waiting 5 hours to get seen. that prole is also bringing like 3 other proles, so they're waiting a total of 15 hours too, so that's 3x15 = 45. and that prole is also going *with* other proles at the same rate, so if there are 3 prole visitors for every prole patient, you can say patient prole is visitor prole 9x a year for 5 hours each, so that's another 45 hours a year.

15+45+45 = 105 hours a year for your average prole, 30min for your average non-prole. now multiple that by how many more proles there are than non-proles, and you understand why every ER waiting room likes like the waiting area at the unemployment bureau.

proles not only prone to dumb prole accidents, but they are also not very proactive with their health, so they'll be showing up to the hospital was insane gangrene and shit. non-proles also do preventive care, and when they enter the hospital it's almost always planned. the rare cases they ever enter through the ER it's a legit emergency, so they never sit in the waiting area, and the only time any non-prole waits there is in your situation. even in my math i over estimated with like "one visitor emergency room visit" a year, which is obscene really. my estimates are under estimated. this is your first time experiencing it apparently, after all. in reality a prole is probably spending quite literally 10,000x more time in an ER waiting room than a non-prole over their lifetime.
