I'm too young to know what y'all are talking about, but I'll add this as an aside:

Recently I've read more than once that only 8% of Americans have no "health coverage", and by that I know the author means medical expense insurance.

Is the number of medical-uninsured people really that low? Obamacare spectacularly priced me out of the market; the minimum "brass" plan for me and StraitWoman would cost over $14,000/year in premiums, and it would have a $14,000 annual deductible. Then it would pay only a paltry percentage -- 50-70% of most type expenses -- and/or in many cases with a capacious co-pay. That's $28,000/year before it even kicks in, and even then then the kick ain't nothin' to shoot the mule over.

There have to be more people like me -- too rich to get insurance for free, and too poor to afford to buy it. ???

When .25M household income is more than 95% of all households, you know that things are not good for many people.
