Advocates say it is discrimination and are arguing for “insurance fairness” on the grounds that people who have joints surgically replaced typically don’t face the same kinds of coverage challenges.
Kinda misses the point because they have their own money to pay for whatever treatments they want, even if their company regularly denies them to clients. Buying insurance is gambling against the house, just health insurance has that extra bit where the insurance companies somehow have a say in what treatments they’ll cover.
That’s why the rich don’t gaf about ruining public services. They can still just hire someone to do it for them and if the government isn’t providing the service for everyone else, they’ll also need to hire someone to do those things, meaning some capitalist can set up a business to profit from the need the government no longer meets.
True. I almost forgot you can pay with your own money. When you dont have any disposable income, you don’t even consider that some people can afford to pay for things out of insurance.
That’s not how it works. The CEO is so wealthy that the insurance companies treat them for free because of all the business they bring in from enrolling their workers.
We don’t hear stories about the soft privileges of being in a position of power very often but they tend to be immense. We’re just not in the club so we would never know.

You know, maybe we should force healthcare CEOs to be insured with the lowest tier of their own insurance.

Like some kind of new saw movie lol
It’s almost as if someone recently gave a heads up on how the public feels about health insurance companies… and they chose to implement this anyway 🤔
Line must go up. They probably see themselves as brave by continuing to follow Friedman’s shareholder logic in the face of these events.
