I tend to agree. People love to blame insurers for the difference in price between US and (other country) healthcare prices, without any mention of facts like US nurses earning 4 to 8 times as much as an average NHS nurse, or that half a trillion dollars goes to end of life care in the US every year, i.e. spending $70,000 to extend an 85 year life 3 more months.
Income = expenditure. They are one and the same. Every dollar spent on healthcare in the US is someone else's income and looking at the profit margins, 'someone else' doesn't seem to be the insurers.
