Private Health Insurance Companies

Kirk Said:

How can a government run health insurance entity "compete" with private companies? Will it pay taxes?

We Answered:

Nothing can compete with free. It's not very difficult. All these left-wingers that come up with all these theories about how it will force private companies to lower their standards is just BS. Why would anyone stick to a private health insurance plan when their tax dollars are already paying for another one?

Barry Said:

Why do private health insurance companies raise your premiums while giving you less healthcare?

We Answered:

Yes. And they like to pay their upper management a lot of money. CEO of United Healthcare makes 100 million /year... about 100,000 per hour.

Karen Said:

Will private health insurance companies become more competitive now that the Health Care plan has passed?

We Answered:

Maybe the ultra rich? But do they even need insurance? Since almost everybody will be chucked into the same, soon-to-be overburdened health care system, the lack of sufficient medical resources means the ultra rich might pursue other avenues of health care. They kind of do this already through medical-tourism to places like costa rica and india.

Put yourself in the insurance company's shoes. How do you compete with another competitor who is subsidized by the very people you're trying to make customers? AND the laws of the country will mandate almost every aspect of your business. Who you can and can not insure, what is or is not covered... Yep, you are soon to be out of business.

Marvin Said:

How much money are the private health insurance companies funelling into the RNC?

We Answered:

Probably not as many as those who are funding the party that is trying to pass a bill that REQUIRES you to PURCHASE health insurance or you will be fined heavily and/or sent to jail.

And you do realize that the DNC has had control of the House and Senate for a few years now...right?

Why didn't they do it when they had those 60 votes?

Nancy Said:

Exactly what value do private insurance companies add to our health care system?

We Answered:

The insurance companies definitely add something to the cost of health care but do you think that government bureaucracy will lower the administrative costs? Name any program that is administered by the government that costs less than privately run organizations. I think health care is too important to allow the government to screw it up.

Jessie Said:

Are the Democrats demonizing the private health insurance companies because they have an eye on their profits?

We Answered:

No, it isn't necessary to "demonize" an industry with its foundation solidly mired in unethical, immoral tenets.

To allow people to DIE so that CEOs can have higher salaries is wrong. Period. End. Fini.

Grace Said:

What happens to private health insurance companies if American health care is nationalized?

We Answered:

~~This is a mute point because Nationalized insurance is not in the works. All the government is proposing is an alternative for people who can't get employer based insurance to be able to buy directly from the same insurance that senators and congressmen get. Otherwise, business as usual for private insurance companies.~~
