No kidding huh. I can’t believe people don’t get this.
The entire capitalist controlled media, and even K-12 curriculum informed by capitalist captured state media is a hell of a propaganda pulpit, not to mention the vast majority of state and federal politicians who are bribed sock puppets preaching the false, self enriching word of Wall Street as the only truth, regardless of party on economic policy.

You have to be able to… and still be willing to despite that constant force fed propaganda, critically think to rise above it. Yes, it’s obvious to some of us, but most just want to follow the path of least resistance, which has been telling them their whole lives through our institutions that privatized, for profit healthcare is the pinnacle of freedumb juice, and a system where all citizens have access to quality Healthcare is evil commie marxist leninist socialism.
They don’t understand the meaning any of those words, of course, but they’ve been taught through that same capitalist propaganda machine to fear them and rail against them, or again, they will lose their wrongly defined concept of freedom. Freedom of course having evolved to mean everything that makes our owner class wealthier faster.
I have no problem that they have to staff their organizations. Middlemen are going to exist no matter what. The problem is that the insurance companies are for profit enterprises with public/private ownership. Plus a massive difference in C level salaries.
Oh, won’t somebody think of the shareholders!
You make fun of these middlemen but it’s hard work finding excuses not to pay all the time!
Whenever you have a service that is required by every citizen you have an opportunity for the government to step in and implement a fair solution.
US healthcare is extortion
Remember Americans pay 2-3 times) what other developed countries pay for worse outcomes on average
This isn’t new news, this has been the case for decades.
There’s a load of people out there voting to be poorer
The US government spends more on healthcare in terms of GPD than any other OECD country and has nothing to show for it. That’s how ridiculous it is.
(Source: https://data.oecd.org/healthres/health-spending.htm select just government spending and select % of GDP).

And to make it clear, they pay the most per capita to cover a minority of the population and then they pay for private insurance if they’re lucky enough to have access to it.
