To be born in America is considered an incredible privilege. This is the wealthiest country on earth, with many opportunities. There are enough jobs to go around at the moment (less than 4% of the population are unemployed at the time of publishing.)
When you compare the USA to countries like India, where more than 60% of the population live on less than $3.20 per day, we’re in a pretty good place. There’s a lot of things most Americans can afford to do. 95% of American households own a car, for example.
But, there’s one thing Americans can’t afford. And that’s to get sick.
