I think it’s more like top 5%. Between my husband and I we’re top 30% and it’s still terrible for us. But, point taken, like everything else in the US it’s serving the powerful few so it’s unlikely to change.

I didn’t say it’s great for the top 30% by income. If you have a chronic condition or other major expenses it can be terrible. Part of that 30% is the very wealthy, and part of it is middle class who don’t have big issues.
