15. Medical insurance is about to become unaffordable for everyone

but the super rich

I anticipate my employer scaling down insurance coverage for employees because of cost, plus, whatever insurance we do have will be virtually cost prohibitive

Right now, my family deductible is $9,000 which effectively restricts medical access for my family to catastrophic emergencies

I expect that deductible to go up considerably as insurance companies try to balance the books on our backs

We are going to pay for this whether we get sick or not. Obviously, those who get sick may pay the ultimate price

Look at what medical care looks like for a patient being treated in the hospital for COVID19
