You think the procedure actually cost a million dollars, yet you call others that believe the ACA is a scam clueless? There is no medical procedure that costs a million dollars(well maybe some obscure cutting edge thing) that is all insurance, hospital and government markup. I bet the same procedure could be done in Mexico for 20k. Now I don't want to downplay your point about catastrophe, even though I am in my twenties, a catastrophe could befall me and that is why I need some insurance.
Insurance is supposed to be for catastrophe, the idea that insurance should be the middle man for every healthcare cost is one main problem of why we are where we are today and cant afford our healthcare. I think that we should have a direct patient doctor relationship in Hawaii with Aloha for most healthcare, I believe insurance(socializing large payouts) makes sense in the case of catastrophe and that small accountable insurance companies either for profit or not is perfect for this. We should be buying our insurance from companies from and in Hawaii. We should socialize our costs with out neighbors voluntarily. I do not support large monopolistic mainland insurance companies and hospital chains using their influence in Washington DC to force us to pay them and their outrages healthcare costs. This is where the ACA is a crock of **** and has no Aloha for Hawaii. It does not help the people of Hawaii get any closer to a doctor and the healthcare they need in Hawaii. There is no Aloha in forcing someone in New York to pay for you and vice versa all the while politicians, insurance and hospital big wigs making out with a majority of the capital invested and you making out with the minimal healthcare and a complete lack of doctor patient relationship, or even maybe not a ****ing doctor at all as the case may actually be in Hawaii.
