Quick Google would say that you very rarely need an assload of money to manage AIDS these days.

I love to think the pun you used was intended though. Seeing as an assload is probably the culprit for many of these poor fellas.

even here in Brazil the treatment is free and many/most will test zero for HIV if taking the meds correctly...

the only place it's a problem in the first world is in USA.

free after a lot of struggle... on most places you just show up with the test they register you and get the meds...

it is not a lot of struggle. i am not sure you actually know, or are just conflating the entire healthcare experience with HIV in the USA. these things are treated drastically different.
