Americans don't have health care. We have health insurance. Think about your car insurance vs a warranty. That's the difference. We have a system in place that we want to be something it was never designed to be.

    Its a wonderful system.

    A doctor with three decades of experience tells me I need a procedure. And a fresh-face college kid working at an insurance company, to keep their numbers down, tell me I don't need it.

    Either way, I pay $6k in cash every year before anything really kicks in and that's beautiful.
