And the reason is health insurance, not the quality of our medical personnel or our technology.
Health insurance is literally killing people. It must be abolished. We will ALL pay less for better care without it.
Health insurance is nearly a trillion dollar industry. There is no way to have a middle man that big and somehow save money.
Their goals are 100% opposed to ours. By denying care and charging more, they profit.
We can't even shop around for a better provider because it's tied to our jobs. The entire system is broken.
Abolish health insurance.
