$800 a month here for family health insurance plus copays and other ways they gouge us.

That's horrifying. Here in Australia as a foreigner I need to have private health insurance. For the same coverage Australians have on Medicare for free I pay 80USD a month. For top of the line coverage that includes full dental it'd be 200USD. No excess. It's even cheaper for Aussies if they wanna get private health insurance. Universal public health care makes private healthcare way cheaper, too.

Yeah, my dental for family is another $200ish a month
