I'm not sure how I'm losing. My employers contribution plus mine is less than what I get out.
Obviously, some healthy man or woman somewhere is making up for me, but that's the nature of insurance.
Anyway, you said the system doesn't work and is broken. If it works for 1/3 of people, the system works and the question is how to make it work for everyone.
- JohnFen 5y agoIf it only works for 1/3 of people, it's broken and needs to be repaired.
- iammisc 5y agoRepaired? Sure. Replaced? Not so sure.
- JohnFen 5y agoI'm with you about that. As I mentioned upthread, I'm not in the "burn it all down" camp -- that strikes me as being along the same lines as declaring that a problematic but huge piece of software should be fixed be rewriting it from scratch. But the status quo isn't acceptable.
