[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Devil's advocate here- why is 20k too much for health insurance? I'm sure you pay more than that in rent/mortgage. Although I obviously think our health care system is ridiculously overpriced, inefficient and inflated. My parents were upset theirs was $1300 a month, except I'm pretty sure they use WAY more than that. My dad has had surgery yearly. They have glaucoma, diabetes, high blood pressure and a lot of pain management doctors. [/quote] Because a lot of people don't even make 40K/yr after taxes. How are they supposed to pay deductibles and copays? or eat? or pay for electricity? For-profit medicine is a problem. A big, big problem.[/quote] Right which is why most people work. Because health plans are offered and subsidized by their employers. The people who don’t make enough have theirs paid for by the government. [/quote]
