> My German boss just moved to the US. he's also getting better healthcare for his child

This "better healthcare" will be true in the USA, for about 1 or 2% of top earners.



I have to wait 3 weeks for a doctor appointment in my utopian European nation. I also have to pay for it since I earn too much money after being taxed >40% on my slightly-over-us-median income. Thankfully I’m not in need of dental surgery, else I would be waiting 4 years.

I doubt anywhere in the USA is that bad. To me it looks like health insurance is baked into the cost of living. Obviously bad for poor people and should be addressed but I imagine anyone on the median wage should be fine?
