Overheard someone talking about job security and it made me realize how much our society conditions us to derisk everything. To remove all uncertainties. To insure everything. But certainly is an illusion. Learning to live without it, or with less of it, is ultimate freedom.

Compared to other industrialized societies, the American system exposes its people to more risk, for better and for worse. That is why a single health crisis can send a family into bankruptcy or why housing is so precarious for the working class.

Would be more accurate to say that the US derisks many aspects of life for a certain educated and resourced class of people, and exposes others to enormous uncertainty in healthcare, shelter, future jobs, etc.
