Health insurance-Anyone found catastrophic plan?

[Guest]

Insurance working together with government is inherently wasteful, just like all government, someone elses money with no repercussions. In a true free market where the insurance companies and hospitals were on their own, they would have to compete for customers, trying to get the best care for the best price, otherwise the customers would go elsewhere. Not like what we have now which is no choice about how our money is wasted, in fact, we are being FORCED to waste our money on horrible healthcare. Let them compete for our dollars, let us choose where our money goes, let the wasteful insurance and government go out of business, just like the banks and car companies should have. If you can't provide a product the consumer wants at a price they can afford, then you should not exist. As it is we have a government guaranteed monopoly for ****ty service with our money. To think I used to be able to negotiate my own prices for healthcare at a tenth the "insured" cost with my own hard earned cash.

Cronyism is worse then Socialism, but that does not make Socialism good either, Freedom and Liberty are the way of the future, not the thousands of continued years of Authoritarianism. Think Free and Aloha.
