You're paying for it, one way or another, you're paying for it. You can either pay into an insurance plan or you can wait until something bad happens to you or someone you love and then pay through the nose or declare bankruptcy. |
The reason our healthcare expenses are so inflated is because we have for-profit insurance companies as the middlemen. Government socialized healthcare works. Free market healthcare works. The only thing worse that our current system with insurance companies profiting from our fear of getting sick and our tax system's hostility to saving . . . would be being forced to buy the conscienceless insurance product. You might your car insurance real helpful when you get in an accident or your car is vandalized or stolen?
