Been seeing a lot about how the government passes shitty laws, lot of mass shootings and expensive asf health care. I come from a developing nation and we were always told how America is great and whatnot. Are all states is America bad ?

It should be noted here that insurance is tied to your employer. Some employers offer better plans than others. This commenter has an above average plan.
For someone like me who is employed as a contractor (1099) I would be completely fucked on healthcare if I wasn’t able to get on my wife’s employer’s insurance. And it isn’t even a good plan.
Healthcare is a huge problem is the US, mainly due to it being privatized instead of government run like most so-called developed nations.
True, I do have an above average plan. At my old job my plan was even better. Probably among the best plans possible. I paid $20 for every doctor visit, $50 for any specialist/ER visit, and never a penny more. But then we got bought out by another company and I basically didn’t have insurance anymore. I had an $8000 deductible, which means I needed to spend $8000 in a year before insurance kicked in. This was a number I would never get to. That was the reason I left and found a new job. Which highlights the problems you mentioned with it being tied to employers. Luckily my profession was in-demand at that time (it is not currently), and I was able to find a new new job extremely quickly. If that happened today, I would probably be fucked.
