    Usually there’s still an out of pocket max, like $5000.

    But I guess that could depend on your insurance

    It’s such a scam and the people voting against universal care are the same ones who complain they don’t go to the doctor because it’s too expensive

      Most of the people voting against universal healthcare are comfortably middle class and want to protect their ~premium coverage~ or they’re on Medicare. Few people struggling to afford healthcare even vote lol

          No, most of the poor in red states don’t vote. That’s universally true across the country - there’s a small minority that do, but they’re not the ones stopping universal healthcare. It’s business owners, landlords, wealthy blue collar workers, farmers, and retirees.

          This myth that the poor vote for their own oppression is something made up to make you hate poor people.
