$150/month is actually a really good price.

The school she attends also more than likely offers health insurance.

How has the general decline in public funding for scientific research impacted your research?

How is the government handling patents on the technologies developed at Argonne? Are the patents held by the government or since the research is publicly funded, are the patents in the creative commons?

Or like ... a really good price for having healthcare from healthcare professionals and some kind of safety net in case something bad and unpredictable happens.

Break $150/month down. That's $5/day. So if you cut out the fast food or Starbucks ... then you're already there.

Then you pay the tax.

It's that easy.

Just don't expect to have any help with your healthcare costs should something unpredictable happen.

I don't think you understand what literally means.
