2 kids, c section births, plus one day special care, with no insurance = $30,000 easy!
Not sure what kind of argument you are going for here.
He also mentioned (semi-unrelated) that his sister is currently paying $7,200 p/year for her insurance.
If you think this system is cool, good for you. I think it sucks balls, and would rather just have an extra 5% to 10% taken out of my pay every week, for healthcare coverage, and never have to give it another thought.
To each his own.
Premiums are going up by leaps and bounds, as unemployment soars. How many people will continue to pay?
Pretty soon the cost of covering health care insurance (which is just a middle man), coupled with those who are not paying anything at all, will start turning into $5,000 to $10,000 p/year policies, until even more people can't pay, and then what?
It is amazing how many people fight against their own interests to protect the unsustainable status quo.
Baffling...
