Your math is bad, and you're using a nonstandard set of numbers.

Generally in CA, and most of the US, you would receive health insurance through your employer, and the bulk of your medical insurance premiums are non-taxable subsidies by the employer.

Like I said, your math is bad. You're using numbers from individual plans, not employer-sponsored plans. As individual plans are entirely separate pools from the employer-sponsored plan pools, the numbers aren't even remotely similar.

In all other first world countries it doesn't matter if you are self employed or work for a big company. Your healthcare is the same.
