Well let me say that I have been through times where I have had to forgo my vices and the finer things in life just to make rent, and buying my own health insurance was still out of the question because it was cost prohibitive.
I'd say the "fantasy world" is the one where we're expecting mega-corporations to be benevolent enough to not try to, for example, fuck me out of coverage if I need major surgery and need to exercise my insurance policy.
