I've found various plans for individuals, but they all cost so much that I'd be actively making myself less healthy by paying it! (I'd be cutting out, say, food).
Why can I not find affordable insurance for an individual? Even when I'm young and healthy? What regulations are on the books that prevent this? What rules? What insurance policies?
I don't favor socialized medicine at all, but the whole system makes no sense to me.
If you have a family, it's an entirely different matter.
If you don't own a house or have your assets in the US, you can get all your healthcare free. It's an uneven system ---some people are expected to pay very high premiums and deductibles and taxes to provide free health care for many who choose not to buy insurance or pay anything in.
