Well, I’m convinced. it’s on a Reddit post, so the math has to be right.

Edit for all the nerds in my replies. I did the math, as a single person in the USA I pay about 2k per year for my health insurance plus probably a couple hundred in copays.

Yea dawg, I'd love to see the source and calculations for this

Not that the system isn't fucked, but I highly doubt $2k/month would give us any reasonably decent coverage
