Whether or not a policy with a deductible like that is a gift to the CEO's yacht fund depends on the monthly payments and is, imho, orthogonal to a discussion about universal healthcare.

Considering how hard they actually fight when you actually have to get care (e.g. having the doctor submit tons of justification that you actually need the required treatment vs. some half-assed cheaper approach), I don't think the monthly payments actually matter.
