    I’m a junior software engineer. my insurance is a $5000 deductible for a family of three, 160$/mo premium, 80/20 co pay. If me or a family member has to go to the hospital I’m still fuuuuuuucked. Like anyone has 5k laying around. “Learn to code you get good healthcare” my ass

      exactly, even the idea of co-pay, deductible and oopm are insane. Like imagine starting ANY other business in america and telling your customers that they need to pay you 400 a month for your service, but before they can use it they need to come up with a deductible. By the time you get to explaining oopm and co-insurance they will have already told you to get fuck'd.
