The main thing I've noticed, as someone who works at a company too small to have cheap insurance and is too well off to get subsidized insurance, is that people who work for big companies genuinely don't think health insurance is a problem in America because their employer is able to get bulk plans where they are paying something like $100 a month out of pocket for absolutely amazing coverage.
Then you have the people who used to have great coverage, but it's slowly gotten less good and more expensive over time. They are mainly worried about doing something that will make the problem even worse.
Then you have people like me, who are paying ridiculous money for what is basically "catastrophic" insurance, and like to complain loudly any chance we get, mostly on deaf ears because people hope the problem won't come their way if they just ignore it and carry on.
