only existed if you could absorb being price-gouged for your insurance.

The last time i tried to get insurance on the exchange, they said it would be 5 thousand dollars.

I said "5000 dollars a year? that seems high"

they said "Oh, no sir. 5000 dollars a month"

I said "Goodbye" and hung up.

Wtf? I thought 500 a month was robbery.

Yep. Still no health insurance. Everything out of pocket, and because its all out of pocket I only go to the doctor once a year, and ignore any issue that isnt worth an ER visit
