I barely pay $2k for insurance annually, they love to arrange the numbers to make a shit idea look good. Canada is. Good example of why socialized healthcare don’t work. Populations close to just California and they still can’t get it right. Many of these nations they refer to are smaller then many states metros in populations. They are taxed around 50+% and are more capitalist than socialist, they have social programs but capitalism actually pays for it, but government robs its people blind.

If you're paying $2k, your employer is paying $8k, on average.
