Mercy is Broke!

Mercy’s balance is a sensitive subject for a lot of the community, but we must face the facts: Angela Ziegler is broke. She is massively in debt and will likely never recover from her terrible account balance even after death. Let’s dive into how Merky’s poverty came about.

Mecry’s impoverished life began when her parents were murdered by dozens of rogue missiles that escaped from some peaceful Omnic’s jetfighter. This resulted in her becoming an orphan with either no family or a terrible family because fictional orphans can’t have nice families unless they’re Shazam. She went on to go to medical school after many successful games of Operation.

Despite Switzerland being the most likely place she went to medical school, we shall assume Merfy went to an American university since every country in the world belongs to America. This put her tuition at roughly $60,000 by today’s standards, which would be $750,000 if due to Hollywood popcorn inflation. Countless student loans and an obsession with cosmetic items puts Merci’s debt into the millions.

Although Dancing Doctor’s prodigial status in the medical field sounds like it would qualify her for financial aid, she was unable to obtain any because she was really bad at football (the good one not the British one). Neither the Lindholm family nor Overwatch was able to absolve her debt due to their own financial problems from outfitting a cat with a jetpack and “accidentally” blowing up Malaysia.

Mothcy’s expenses only grew after the Storm Rising mission due to Maximilien’s influence. As revenge for interrupting his lovely vacation in South Florida, Max audited her. He then discovered that she had not paid any taxes since her parents died, angering an organization that even Talon shudders at the thought of: the IRS. The agency decided that even death could not save Percy from repaying her debts, and swiftly placed a miniature immortality field in her DNA.

To this day, Lucie Pohl is met with one obstacle after another in her efforts to repay her debts. She tried publishing a short story, but it ended up being so bad that it made Shooting Star look thoughtful by comparision. She tried getting a tax break by raising money and awareness for breast cancer, but only obtained a measly $12.7 million dollars. She even tried destroying the IRS herself, but could not because the queue to get in was too long. Female Medic may never repay her debt, and it is with a heavy heart that I affirm Mercy is broke.

Tl;Dr I am wanted in several countries for tax evasion

Maybe she could start up a global crime syndicate that exclusively steals ash trays and sells them on the black market.
