    "I am alive today not because of insurance companies but despite them." Private insurance companies exist to make as much profit as possible, not keep people alive. We must pass Medicare for All and end the disgrace of our corporate-run system.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/17/opinion/insulin-prices-diabetics.html?action=click&module=Opinion&pgtype=Homepage …

        As far as I can remember there wasn't medical insurance companies in 1776. I could be wrong though.

        Unfortunately I trust private insurance companies more then my government to operate it. The unknown and the track record of our government is to much for me to chance.

        That said, the private insurance companies are just as bad if not worse since their entire business is focused on solely on denying people coverage while still making them pay monthly premiums.

        Oh yeah it's the best. Until around May every year we're paying full price for everything until we meet our deductible. So my son's medicine is about $550 out of pocket. Oh, and my dentist says I need to replace my front teeth to the tune of about $10k. Insurance rocks!!!!

        To commemorate the 10th anniversary of my T1D diagnosis I decided to share my struggles with private health insurance. I wish that my story could be the last of its kind, but it wont be until Medicare for All becomes law and private insurance is eliminated https://nyti.ms/2Lz75GG

        They just make you pay thousands a year only to deny you coverage for a life-saving procedure when you need it most.
