Nearly half of younger workers say they would turn down a job offer if it meant moving to a state that bans abortion, a new NBC/Generation Lab survey finds.
Imagine you got a job offer in a state where dentists are illegal. I don’t expect to have any dental problems, but if it happens, wow it would suck to live there.
It’s almost like you’re missing some kind of essential form of medical care.
And to continue your analogy, some lawmakers in those states actively trying to prosecute you for obtaining dental care outside your state. Further, even general tooth hygiene, which doesn't require a dentist would be under attack. They would be bringing law suits for giving someone a toothbrush.
Craziest thing is that nobody will ever tell you why they want dental hygiene to be illegal. They will say something like, "My favorite series is Harry Potter. I never saw him brush his teeth." and you're just thinking, "What does your favorite book have to do with this? Also I'm pretty sure Harry brushes his teeth -- did you even read your favorite book??"
Not only that. Say someone punches your teeth in, they just tell you to accept having broken teeth for the rest of your life should you survive the potential infections first.
Imagine you got a job offer where health care is not a given. I don’t expect to have any health problems, but if it happens, and my insurance won't cover (all of) it, wow it would suck to live there.
It’s almost like you’re missing some kind of essential form of medical care.
There are some fields like computer science where the pay in the US has the potential to be much higher. But, it really has to be—and significantly so, imo—in order to make the reduction in or outright lack of guaranteed services something acceptable.
