"Damaging the care we get" is a speculative opinion. I can give you many cases where insurance companies have helped to drive amazing results from health care professionals and facilities that were the key to recovery.

And you have still not addressed the $3.6T we need annually (a VERY conservative estimate) to pay for it. All you did was point to a 42% figure and say "THERE".

Please explain why this message is being reported.
