>affordable
Only if you are already dependent on government assistance. Otherwise the cost for health care has jumped considerably. Also if you can't afford the Obamacare and you don't buy it you get fined which can be as much if not more than the monthly cost, so some people get fucked either way.

Looks like we have our priorities straight

Except Trump signed an order last week directing government to stop enforcing the mandate, with the way Republicans in congress have handled this you're about to get repeal without replacement so we'll see how that goes.
Only Americans consider private insurance socialism.

He did, and I'm suprised you followed that.
And I don't give a fuck about a replacement. I have health care from my employer.
All last month all I did was see how you can get Obamacare for as little at $40/month. Go to the website and realize, no, no I can't because I'm not a piece of shit on every other assistance program.
Play $140 a month or $380.... I'll stick with my employers lower cost and better coverage.

Ever wonder why drugs cost so much here?
We get to pay the research and development cost too.

>implying that Europe does not pay research and development costs when we buy drugs from american companies
It's not europe's fault that pharmaceutical lobbies in USA can shut down anything that can bring costs down.
>>70671602
You may pay some, but just look at the cost of the same meds. People want drugs from Canada because they are cheaper.

It's a perception thing. If you and your family are healthy the idea of serious illness doesn't come to mind. You feel secure that being healthy will make you stay healthy, up until you aren't.
Things like identity theft "feel" more likely because it's easy to imagine that someone, somewhere, is a thieving bastard. Personal circumstances don't enter into it.
>>70671602
We pay the majority of the costs. As soon as Europe starts getting pharmaceutical ginats, you're going to experience the same thing
