    Insurance companies are the worst, I can’t believe that they’re even a thing. You give them money just in case you need some in an emergency, and they do their very best not to give you anything. The entire business model is: “You give us money, and we keep it”.

      People were up in arms about “death panels” with government healthcare.

      There are already death panels for the insurance companies, but they act in the dark and they’re fiduciaries who are legally required to consider stockholder value over human life.

      My mom was on a plan with someone pre-Obamacare where it was obvious their policy was to reject every claim they get. She said she had to dispute every single one before they’d consider paying. Not sure if Obamacare fixed it but she moved over to Kaiser P. which is EXPENSIVE but they do seem to take really good care of you, no questions asked (when you’re in their system, of course).
