If you don't pay for it from your own pocket, you pay for it in taxes.

Yes but if you're out of the ultra capitalist private US healthcare business that we're trapped in, you pay way less through taxes.

That matters for populations, not individuals.

Someone earning $200k doesn't really need to worry about that kind of thing.
