Re: [FairfieldLife] Failing trajectory of the private health insurance system

2009-09-20 Thread Bhairitu
Keeping in mind that we have about 305 million people in the US at the 
moment, if each one were charged around $325 a year they would have all 
the coverage they need if you take into consideration that they estimate 
yearly health costs in the US at almost $100 billion. So why are we 
paying so much to the insurance companies? Somebody is making out like a 
bandit.
$325 * 30500 = $99,125,000,000.

[FairfieldLife] Failing trajectory of the private health insurance system

excerpt

"Amidst the ideological back and forth that is the health care reform
debate of 2009, recent studies reveal a growing reality that each of us
can easily understand, no matter what our ideological point of view.

It will not be long until the private health insurance model will no
longer work –for anybody.

It's got nothing to do with public options or single payer advocates
just as  it will have nothing to do with those prepared to defend
America from socialism at all costs.

The simple fact is that single-payer, government controlled health care
is inevitable because the trajectory of the private health insurance
system reveals that it is doomed to fail – and sooner than we might
realize.
