Exactly. Health insurance in US will tie people down even if they want to leave. For example.
Not really. You just pay for COBRA. Your 6 months severance will cover that rather nicely. Granted it might be cheaper to just get private insurance nowadays.
Granted that the severance will cover it, but COBRA is not cheap (you pay the same your employer + you payed)
Yes, but what about all the jobs that don't pay severance?
