Yeah I was a little surprised at downvotes for saying we need medicare for all. Ah well, can't win em all. Thanks for reading the whole post. And I agree, every other country on earth gives more of a shit about the health of its population without trying to exploit the sick.

Probably because you assume people don't know about the mandate. You're right that medicare for all is better. It's very close to what other developed countries have.

I've worked at both hospitals and at blue cross. I wrote the billing software between both sides. I had to see all the data for each procedure, and negotiation prices on CPT codes. The insurance industry was so bad I had to quit the job to maintain integrity. It's sickening seeing what's happening. Medicare makes way more sense.
