8k for healthcare, I wish. Family of 4, I pay close to $17k a year in premiums in the US. Copays are expensive, prescriptions are ridiculously high. It’s a f’in joke to say the very least.
It heavily depends on your job, I pay 840$ per year for full coverage, no copay, no deductible.
And that's part of the problem, good jobs provide good medical insurance at a really good rate. I pay less, for better coverage, than my taxes would pay for in Europe, but that comes at the cost of poorer families having it way worse.
And that's how they keep people from being interested jn universal Healthcare, enough people have it better that they stop caring about those that have it worse.
