so you enjoy having average health care for inflated prices?
I enjoy paying my own way.
Even if it costs you half again as much.
Half? Try 3x or 4x if health care were truly reformed removing the FDA
and AMA monopolies.
The per capita cost of health care in the US is 50% more than any
other industrial nation.
As it stands now, I can change plans and I can change bosses.
And if you get sick or injured and can't work, you can't get any plan, you
can't get any job, and you and your family go broke.
The leading cause of personal bankruptcies is medical emergencies.
Second leading cause, yes!
Illness and medical bills caused half of the 1,458,000 personal
bankruptcies in 2001, according to a study published by the
journal Health Affairs.
