> The experiences(no health care, mental health issues, prejudice) do not match their own experiences which makes those dealing with them the 'other'. If things keep going the way they are, those experiences will only become more relatable; not less. I have a good, high-paying job with good benefits and even I am considering going without health insurance because I get so little from the premiums I pay. Most of my providers are out of network because all of the ones in network have 3-12 month waiting lists for new patients. And that’s on top of the $5000 deductible — plus the fact I know if anything serious happens I’d likely have to fight with the insurance company for years and have to take out a loan to cover the treatment in the meantime (I’ve had to do this before, and conversations with others in my situation taught me I was far from alone). Our health insurance system is officially non-functional in my eyes.
