My health insurance premiums aren't much more than what I paid in NI 
back in the UK - about $100 a month I think.

OTOH, and back to the original point, my employer has to pay far more. 
Thus potentially making me even more expensive.

This isn't meant to be a debate on where it's better or cheaper to live 
(especially since Leo has asked us to rename this thread) more the fact 
that I can imagine that it *is* more expensive to have a US based dev 
team.
