Trump is going to have an impossible time on healthcare. Even Warren Buffet and Bezos know that there needs to be a private insurance monopoly (like the Fed for insurance or something) or a government run program.

So in other words, we actually are paying that god damn 10K average in the US much more often than people in these other countries pay their 5k...they get theirs from the government or their employer or some combo.

Leftists hate the ultra wealthy on one hand...then they wholeheartedly agree with ultra wealthy warren buffet and jeff bezos on the other....... *boggle*
Monopolies arent healthy for the market. Theyll slash rates and offer whatver they can to gain acceptance initially....then once they got us, its price increase after price increase till those introductory "bargain" rates are ancient history.
Stop being a lazy ass fatass glutton and our health costs per capita go down. Stop sharing needles in the opiod epidemic and indiscriminately fucking anything that walks with nonbinary pansexual circus freaks and you wont contract newly minted venereal diseases that its the rest of our responsibility to share in the burden of paying to remedy and we wouldnt have the highest healthcare costs in the world.
Have a little fucking respect for your body.
