“Blaming the insurance industry for the cost of health care is like blaming the waiter for the price of the meal.”
Remember, health insurance is how you pay for health care (aka medical care). Health insurance and medical care are two entirely different things! But the politicians have done an amaaazing job of blurring the definitional lines between the two.
The “Stealth Care” Reform bill has done absolutely nothing to stem the cost of medical care or prescriptions. These are the two main cost drivers in health insurance.
Basically, it’s all about simple arithmetic, folks.
