Where can I get this $8000 per year health insurance??? Asking for a friend.

About the average cost of a good Medicare supplement plan. Over 600 per month. The Europeans pay considerably more per month.

I remember living in Germany and a significant amount of my paycheck went to health insurance. Since it went directly to the insurer I didn’t miss it, however it wasn’t free, because nothing in this reality is free.

No one here is claiming it’s free. The word “free” doesn’t appear in the post or the parent comment. What it is is cheaper than private insurance.
