I bust my ass too. I work 35 hrs/week, moving an average of 25,000 lbs per hour, while going to school fulltime. The difference between me and you is that I don't live in NY, and my wages are shit compared to yours. We may have some things cheaper than you guys, like housing, but health insurance plans don't get much cheaper for us. I've lived without health insurance for nearly 15 years of my life. I'm lucky that I've never broke a bone, I would be walking bow-legged today, at the age of 20.
