$25k doesn't sound like a lot. Doesn't sound like it accounts for the difference in salary.

I’m not sure what your point is?

25K/yr IS a LOT.

Per the US Census, the median income in the US is a bit over 37,500, so it’s literally an entire paycheck.

Remember - the NHS is available to everyone, not just the rich.

You're misunderstanding how the ACA subsidies work.

According to article linked to below there are 48 million uninsured Americans. Fifteen percent of the UK population isn’t without coverage. The subsidies don’t work well.

Respectfully, You're out of touch until you lost your 6 digits job.
