Looking at 90%ile total income tax in UK it’s about the same as 90%ile in a typical US state, but you get comprehensive health care in UK

If there's any common political rallying point in the USA, it's how expensive healthcare is!
Relief does exist. I know two close people who each had around $70k of medical debt wiped clean by hospitals.
But yes, healthcare costs need to drop. See this graph for a symptom of why healthcare is so expensive: http://www.ibj.com/ext/resources/blog/The-Dose/Physicians-Ad...

What’s interesting is that two sectors that have had costs rising much faster than inflation for decades are healthcare and college in the US. Replace “physicians” with “professors” and you have a visually identical graph for college costs
