The people who are healthy rejoice as they have low premiums which is also a weird reason to rejoice because they're paying for something they aren't using. Insurance is a scam and is really only worth a damn if everyone is paying in so that everyone can get care when they need it. I read a good write up once that explained how health insurance will always fail because of the nature of insurance. Insurance only works when a sizable portion of the insured will never need it. There are many car drivers out there, home owners, boat owners that will never have to call in a claim on their insured property. This makes the system sustainable. But everyone is going to need health insurance at some point. Even if you're super healthy, things will happen to you, or you'll get older. The whole system collapses under the weight of this fact and expenses just go through the roof. Health insurance should be abolished, and replaced with a different system. --- http://i.imgur.com/DCjoiZ0.jpg <cite>spanky1 posted [p:879155263] in Is the cos...
