Re: Private healthcare
Many people 'without coverage' actually could get care if they asked, but many do not want to be indebted. I was without for a long time, much of my childhood and late teen years. I knew if I got pregnant or an emergency, the govt would pay for the care and prolly for my education as well, but I would not ask for it.
25$ is half the groceries for a week, skip milk two weeks in a row and there you have it. Not optimum, but better than letting a kid suffer (and I had an ear infection as a teen - Painful to just wait for my body to fight it. but it did.)
