I paid that for a two bedroom apartment. Not everybody lives in NYC you fucking city slicker.

$20 would be on the low side, but yeah, the employer subsidized health insurance most people can get is not much; at my current job its like $120 a month to cover myself, wife, and children; a single person would pay like $60 a month. For those without employer subsidized insurance, Medicaid will cover everything if you are really poor, and the moderately poor can buy highly subsidized plans that the federal government props up. When I was on unemployment for a spell in 2020 (COVID shit) my wife & I paid like $90 a month for a plan while the kids got Medicaid.

Those horror stories you hear about people with giant medical bills are almost always just cases of people being too dumb to sign up for insurance, or the rare case of someone who is self employed, and makes enough money to not get the federal subsidy, who decides they do not want to pay full cash for insurance and then gets unlucky.

The employer does cover the bulk of the insurance costs for employees, hence the "employer subsidized plan" term; and "every other place on earth" certainly does not have fully subsidized employer provided health insurance. In the UK, for example, most jobs do not provide any health insurance, with people using the tax funded & government ran NHS for health care. Though to be fair, jobs offering subsidized insurance for private health care is becoming more common in bong land.

Who the fuck pays for health insurance? Do I just have a great plan with my company?
I pay $0/m for my high detectable Aetna insurance. Had to get 4 impacted wisdom teeth out and I paid $800 out of pocket for the $5k total bill. Shilling out monthly premiums probably wouldn’t have gotten it down much lower.
