    Just imagine if we had health coverage that wasn’t tied to our jobs. If you had enough money to live on you could – gasp – quit your job and couch it up or find a different one. Can’t have that though, because that’s too much like actual freedom.

      What’s all the more ridiculous is, the US government already spends like $2-3T per year on medical spending (Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, etc). And that’s not enough somehow.
