ANYONE who has any brain cells whatsoever knows that if you have insurance the price is marked up at least 400% so you still end up paying nearly the same price as a non insured and/or cash person. My girlfirend didn't have insurance last year and she had to make a ER visit. As we were exiting and had to stop by the financial office the lady laid a form out in front of her and said "sign this since you don't have insurance you only pay 20%." "Dental discount" cards are a great example. I canceled my insurance after I figured out I'd pay less with a discount dental card and cash than with my "insurance." Obamacare is and has always been a huge windfall for the insurance companies (the people who actually wrote the bill) nothing more nothing less.
