Yes, that is really our situation. We have universal health care but it doesn't cover the costs of dental, eye care or the prescriptions that you may need. So while health care is cheap, if you need a prescription, you are paying out a lot of extra money. In addition, dental is brutal. Since we are self employed, we have to pay for the insurance ourselves and it is very expensive.
Yah, I've got a couple friends up there and we were talking about it last year. Thats what he was saying too, about dental and prescriptions, and its still a deduction from your paycheck......
