“Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer, a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance. Or that people could start a business and be entrepreneurial and take risks, but not be job-locked because a child has a child has asthma or diabetes or someone in the family is bipolar. You name it, any condition is job-locking.”

THANK YOU.

This is also why average wages are coming down, across the board. They know if you have health insurance, you can’t afford to leave, so they don’t need to give raises to keep you.

Yes. This.

I have a part-time job. My parents pay for my health insurance, which is through my job. Because my job is half-time, though, my employer only pays for half of it, so my parents help out. (The amount is almost a whole paycheck every month.) They don’t like this situation and neither do I, and I’m trying to find a full-time job or even part-time with full health insurance, but y’all know how easy that is.

I can’t go without health insurance. I just can’t. I told my mom I didn’t know what kind of job to get, and she said some people make their own job, and I was like “uh… still need health insurance.” And she was like “…oh yeah.”

Dream of being a writer, I can’t follow you right now, but I’ll ask where you’re going and hook up with you later.
