Dinosaur has pulled no punches in laying blame:
# The enormously lucrative, parasitic industry called “Health Insurance” (instead of what it really is: “Health Care Brokerage”) that sucks out billions of dollars a year from the interactions between doctors and patients, because it can.# American citizens who have come to believe that health care doesn’t (and shouldn’t) cost them anything. Deep down (not even so deep in some cases) everyone thinks the “ideal” health insurance plan is one that is completely paid for by one’s employer and pays for everything. Payroll deductions, deductibles and co-pays are admitted to be necessary evils, but the smaller the better — hence, the ideal.
