      In the US there exists a system where you have to pay for healthcare up to a certain value, beyond which insurance covers the costs. It’s common to have this deductible reset every year.

        beyond which insurance covers

        most of!

        the costs

        Like what the fuck is wrong with the US and why are we so certain that stuff that works in the rest of the world is a fantasy (guaranteed maternity leave; the metric system; debt-free medical care)?

        Awful.
