We can get medical care without insurance, but it's rock bottom. People go to the ER when their kid is mildly ill because the ER has to see them.

We're about to lose our Obamacare insurance because the Republicans fucked us over. I get one doctor appointment next week, won't get any follow up care.

BTW, I'm unemployed but my wife works for the largest credit union on the planet, a "great job" people say around here. She gets no insurance, PTO, nada. Been there over a year, excelling on every metric, still not a "full" employee.
