My longer term dream has always been to be self-employed but the US makes that difficult. Health insurance for my family alone is a dream killer.

What I’ve seen work is a two income family where one is self employed and the other works a “boring, stable” job with health insurance. YMMV, as always healthcare and insurance in the US is a load of crap
Yeah, if I ever do achieve it I suspect that’ll be the path to doing so.

It does surprise me there’s no political will to change things. Having to provide healthcare is a burden to employers, it prevents workers from pursuing their entrepreneurial dreams… you’d think both sides of the aisle would want change. But alas.
