I think the health insurers should lose their anti-trust exemptions.
Frankly, I don't know what public purpose private, for-profit health
insurers serve.
What function does insurance in general have?
Do you want the government to write life, homeowner's and car
insurance too?
They already write flood
Being opposed to private, for-profit health insurance does not mean I
want to put government in its place. There's no reason why truly
not-for-profit companies couldn't handle the job. I do favor a
government-run but not necessarily government-underwritten option for
those who want one.
You are beginning to sound like Princess Little Feather. You want a
private, not for profit company to fund a government managed health plan.
Sure. I want in. Where do I sign up?
Right here..cupcake. That's exactly what we have in Nova Scotia.
Medavie Blue Cross administers our MSI, Seniors Pharmacare, Family Drug
Plan & Childhood Dental Plan + the Diabetes Program
Crappy health care at a premium price! And, no, it's not "free".
