PPACA grants up to $780 a month for low income folks to put towards insurance, that can lower the cost of a silver plan to $25 a month, or silver w/dependent child to ~$200.

The biggest thing is prescription drugs really. If you're a healthy millennial who doesn't need drugs (ADs, etc) then hey roll the dice, but if you need a prescription with any regularity, insurance is good to have period. Catastrophic medical debt will still happen either way if you have a serious medical event, but insurance will help + actually get you treatment for things like uhhhhhhh cancer and whatnot. Finally, lets say you do break your leg and go to the ER and get a $15000 bill with no insurance or w/e, a lot of states have wage garnishing laws that allow debtors to take money from your check to repay debts on a weekly basis. They don't bill you, they gank it.

The prescription drugs thing makes sense, as does the wage garnishing. But isn't bankruptcy designed specifically to avoid wage garnishing, etc.?

almost makes me want to try software grifting by writing a browser extension that adds the full text of a Bible verse or range of Bible verses, and adds a link instead if it's longer than 240 characters, and charge $10-$1000 per download depending on the IP address. Charge $10, but if it's a Lifeway IP address, market it as corporate industrial software so middle-management can justify it sort of thing
