Yes.

5k is not alot
Considering I make 60k
8.3% of ur income
Well the way pricing works is that the pharma are given domestic monopoly. That's why you hear about people buying in Mexico. It's the same drug from the same manufacturer just sold cheaper abroad.
The best answer is not regulation. Simply make importing legal. Without domestic monopoly they can't gouge. It *does* mean they would have to raise the price they sell to the lesser nations of the earth to cover R&D but I'm fine with that....
I lose more in taxes than I do in ins premiums
Oh wow
Idk seems a lot to me
Im still pretty young so
I can tell you what happens when medicare is shit
Im only 22 my dude
Im not an old fart yet xD
Im literally 17
People go to private practices and/or foreign nations and get their proper healthcare there, e.g. dental work
Those numbers don't show up on the "medicare for all" shit
@Tiberius
Look into concierge. It's pretty cheap then you just need major medical.
Single payer numbers are mostly camouflaging the shit reality
I have blue cross blue shield I am largely good my man
Part of why it is higher is because I am obese
Costs me an extra 550$ a year to be overweight
implying if someone's poor enough to need medicare they can afford to just up and go to another fucking country for any fucking reason, let alone medical care
Concierge is kinda awesome. You pay a flat monthly for a group of doctors. They have specialist, do house calls, etc. Not too pricey either because no middle man.
sounds more like a god damn pilgrimage
@Jokerfaic that's *exactly* what my mom used to do with us, and she was poor
Travelled to Hungary, which is right next to Austria, so we could get cheaper dental care, which then doesn't show up both in expenses and treatment in the Austrian system
We're still doing that
>Austrian
oh well if its right fucking next door that might make it cheaper
Mexico is pretty next door
No it was cheaper because it's fucking Hungary, which is its own shithole
Panama isnt much further
Or go to canada
So is canada
What if u live in like kansas
Costs most people cannot cover.
I feel like you dont travel much weez
Travelling is literally my job
Travelling is not that expensive if you do it right
It mostly takes time out of your schedule
