Your insurance is probably heavily subsidized by government from income tax.

Yeah, and? It's not that the US has one of the lowest income tax rates in the world (in fact, it's one of the highest, especially to their citizens that work abroad).
It's prob important to know level of coverage and % of income it costs vs absolute numbers which is fairly meaningless.
