Is this really the first time on the internet that you've encountered a discussion about US healthcare costs?

Healthcare cost, no, but monthly insurance cost, yes.

$800 per months plus out of pocket sums for each appointment is batshit insane.

Plus, loosing it when you loose your job is even more difficult. I think I finally understand why every Michael Bay movie is starting with a surprise medical bill. I always thought it was somewhat silly.

To give you a example, I pay 75€ per months for the entire family, and we don't have to pay anything when going to the doctor.

I am American, and that sounds really high.
