We will be taxed to death
You don't pull out your wallet when the fire department shows up to save your house. The same should be true of health care. That is why we need Medicare for All — which eliminates premiums, co-pays and deductibles.

You already are. You just call it “premiums,” “deductibles” and “copays” instead of “taxes.”

25 bucks when I go to the doctor. My employer pays for my insurance..
-
In other words you get a lower salary than you otherwise could've had. Your employer controls in other words what should've been your real salary
-
Part of my salary is the corporation paying the majority of my premium. It is part of my compensation package, and I am satisfied with the arrangement.
-
And then if you ever have to leave your job or are fired, I guess you're fine with that corporation having the sole power of your healthcare?
-
Yep. I am good with it. I actually paid for an individual plan before Obamacare. The ACA forced it to be cancelled and the closest replacement was 73% higher with lesser coverage.

As I have said many times, nobody in Canada puts a For Sale sign on their lawn because they got sick.

No they do because they can’t afford the property taxes. I lived there. 50x50 lot, 1200 sq ft house = $1200.00 annual property taxes, and that was over 15 yrs ago. I still have family up there who tell me about what’s happening.
-
Depends a lot of which city and province you live in.
-
Yes you are right.
-
$1200? My annual property taxes at $5,200 in CA.
-
I was going to say $1200 is cheap! Some people pay as much as $24,000 in IL!
