The less insurance the better. Any coverage more than catastrophic coverage is a major source of our problems. Slowly but surely, employers are eliminating the old-fashiioned Cadillac policies, so there is some progress. If we can get insurance companies and the government (Medicare, Medicaid) out of health care, health care costs will become manageable again.

Hear! Hear!

You’ve hit it square on the head... This whole ugly business of double digit inflation in health care costs didn’t start until the Feds got involved, back in the 50’s and 60’s, along with the stupid a$$ unions demanding ‘perks’ in negotiations (and the idiot companies that caved in to their demands).

Absolutely. It’s government beginning in I believe it was 1965 with Teddy Kennedy at the helm of the Oldsmobile named Medicare that began this journey off the side of the bridge.

He’s gone, along with his BS, and we have to take the Kennedy residue out of government, and do it as soon as we can.
