[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3499156, member: 58386"] First, I admire your skill when it comes to evading the question of what healthcare "should be" but then again it's your question. That $13 ibuprofen pill? likely prescription strength requiring doctor's a prescription . You don't buy that OTC. Yes, your generation is different than mine. It wants it's profit privatized but it's risks socialized and that's where you come in with XG. In reality you are simply an unlicensed insurer. XG dumps off onto you as much risk, liability and variable costs it can get away with. But, unlike a licensed insurer you can't go to your state insurance commission and petition for a raise in premiums. XG decides what the premiums will be and they are always based on their rock bottom estimate of what they think your cost of providing service should be. BTW. Over in neighboring county there is this small community hospital that for generations did a good job of providing care to the life long residents of of that small town. One day a Texas gas driller with his employees and their spouses and kids showed up ....no health insurance. They were there for a year or so drilled a couple of holes then in keeping with the locust nature of a gas driller they along with the employees simply packed up and drove off leaving behind a 6 million dollar unpaid hospital bill. With their charity reserve long since exhausted the hospital had no choice but to go to my state and ask for an emergency infusion of taxpayer cash. It was either that or close up the shop. [/QUOTE]
