I would pay for a retro gaming subscription that would give me access to over 1,000 games for $20 a month. Sega Genesis, Atari, Nintendo, Neo-Geo and so much more.

As of 2021, the US spent 16.6% of its gross GDP ($23.59 billions) on healthcare expenditures. The very next was Germany, at 12.7% of its $4.28 billion GDP. The US is spending more per-capita than any other OECD country on healthcare, it's just not made visible by looking at the number on your tax report. You're still collectively paying for it one way or another.

But hey, yay, low taxes. Good for you, I guess?
