Last I checked the US spent more than any comparable country on healthcare/capita, roughly twice the OECD average.
And, they have to deal with medical bankruptcies, using Uber instead of ambulances, insulin rationing, and whatnot
I was doing the math on the new benefits package my company is rolling out and we’re getting close to the point it’d be cheaper in nearly every instance to simply not have health insurance. I’m literally only keeping it for that slim chance one of us becomes extremely ill and needs major medical intervention.
BuT bUt BuT tHe TaXeS!!
… I can almost guarantee the taxes are still less than the lost direct compensation from employers that instead goes to your insurance “benefit.” :/

But who would innovate if America didn’t fleece its patients?
yeah but why would I pay for healthcare if I’m healthy(now)!!??
It’s the least effective system, but at least it’s not
communismsocialisma system where tax money is used to cover human rightsPlus hundreds of thousands of lawyers and lawsuits.

Healthcare is not cheap. I pay over a thousand euros per month. But it covers my whole family including me so its worth it.

This industry is like a balloon waiting to pop.
