Suggesting you have to be a good enough SW engineer working for FAANG (a relatively high bar) to afford to be sick in the US really doesn't paint the system in

Suggesting you have to be a good enough SW engineer working for FAANG (a relatively high bar) to afford to be sick in the US really doesn't paint the system in a good light.
Such high earners can cover their healthcare in any country. It's the rest of the people you have to worry about. And if your illness endangers your employment status you definitely don't want to be in the US.
- aantix 8y agoAgree. But only the OP could assess the risks. But if it’s something that is controlled with the the right care and they’re a pretty good engineer, then the risk of moving here is much smaller than they realize.
