Re: The shop heard round the world (4.00 / 2)

Well, in the same way that some car insurers employ their own repair shops, I think that it is necessary to merge the health insurance pool and the people who actually get the money from the health insurers thereby cutting out or merging TWO (conflicting) sources of "rentier" drain from the system.

It can be done, for sure, and it is innovative use of LLC's etc that make it possible.

Re: The shop heard round the world (none / 1)

That's what makes it so damn frustrating. There's no objective reason for the US to be so screwed-up. Less than one percent of the US population benefits yet most of the population gives one the "lights are on but no one's home" stare when alternatives are presented.

<sigh>

A doo run-run-run, a doo run-run

They do it because they can. No other reason is needed.
