You are diagnosed with cancer but have no money for treatment. You've no option but to steal the money somehow. What's your plan?
Assume you're life-lusted and are willing to abandon every moral you have just to live. Paying for cancer treatment is also worth prison time to you.
Also assume you've exhausted all ethical fundraising options, i.e. GoFundMe, loans, etc. and that insurance won't cover treatment for whatever reason.

Wouldn't it just be easier to move to Europe?
You need to be rich to emigrate
You don't have to be rich, it takes a couple thousand dollars, the problem is to not become homeless afterwards...
Isn't having a job lined up a prerequisite for immigration in most countries?
Immigration is complicated, and you are thinking only of "legal" immigration. It is extremely common for people to ignore those laws. And a job is not always required, no.
You (generic you) don't need to really emigrate to a country to receive treatment, you could go with a tourist visa or visa free and get treated, then go back to the shitty country without universal healthcare where you live.
In my home country everyone has access to healthcare because it's a human right, so by law it doesn't matter what your immigration status is, you will get care. This includes cancer treatment, for free.
Good luck getting in.
So all you gotta steal is $300 for a plane ticket. That should be relatively easy, right?
