    The real hazard, at least at present, to the average person is our dysfunctional healthcare system. It might be less “in your face” than some of the other factors, but it is insidious and affects everyone except those at the top.

      the system is fine as long as you have good insurance. the average person still has employer sponsored insurance that is fairly decent.

      the shitty part of the system is those who are getting bad insurance. which is mostly those who are getting it outside of employer insurance. large employer insurance has lower rates because it’s a bigger pool of purchasing power. it’s small employers and independence insurance that screws people over.
