Should U. S. do the Norway way? PAY twice for health?

[strateguy632]

People think norway gives FREE HEALTH CARE, but they pay twice: once is:

For Doctor visits & medicine, REQUIRE pay hundreds of crown money, "NOK 300 per visit." NOT FREE in norway. also AGAIN PAY:

Required to PAY beyond tax: National Insurance 8% of salary all year- Employees: 7.9% or Self-employed: 11.1% income.

Should u. s. ADD 'health fee' to tax on salary, like wonderful Norway?

300 norwegian crowns is 31 us dollars, so calm down. What would health insurance cost in the us? Copay? Out of network docs? Stuff not covered by the insurance? I promise people don’t go into debt or bankrupt over medical bills in Norway. It’s not unusual in the us though where a lot of people have medical debt and the most common reason for bankruptcy is medical bills.

31$ each dr. and each medicine. i pay less for medicine just $15
without adding 8% of my salary.
but you are happy to ADD 8% more of your Salary to tax? be like wonderful norway?

No. Healthcare in the US is already unaffordable

Ask around about the medicine competition website trump arranged. It caused companies to compete lower prices.
I mentioned it in a question a few months ago.
