- sdoering 5y agoYes it does. But how to people manage that don't make these IT job salaries? How do "regular" Americans survive such an event?
- Ancalagon 5y agoThey don't, or they go bankrupt.
- heavyset_go 5y agoBankruptcy, or they die from not being able to afford care beyond the stabilization emergency rooms are obligated to give (and bill extremely high for) even without insurance or ability to pay. Plenty of people can't afford chemo, for example, and just die.
