It just feel so incestuous. Insurance company can't make more than 15% profit... OK, easy solution... just buy the hospitals. Now you can set the prices... if a service costs you $1,000, you can advertise things cost $10,000, but only have the parent company pay some small fraction of that... and leave others to pay $7,500 out of pocket (or other insurance carriers out of network). There are all these shady deals that aren't transparent to the end user. I think the only solution is socialized medicine. And just remember, we'd have that today if it wasn't for Joe Lieberman. He torched the public option, then didn't even run for re-election after. This guy could have prevented so much suffering in America today. He knew it, he just wanted to side with the insurance companies in 2009. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2009/10/did-sen-joe-lieberman-just-kill-the-public-option.html https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2009/10/did-sen-joe-lieb...
