Unfortunately it applies to US imperial colonies as well. South Korean white collar workers will pay about $400-800 a month for health insurance, same as Americans.

Good thing Dems have dropped M4A from their platform!

At some point you assume the dam must break with US healthcare profiteering, but they always find another way (which is why I wanted Obama to follow up on his 2008 primary promise to do Card Check for unions and not less than Hillarycare Romneycare bullshit he ran against the premise of, literally saying "if you could solve healthcare by mandating buying coverage you could solve homelessness by criminalizing it")
