Every health insurance executive builds their wealth on blood money.

  @mloxton @laprice If only there were countries civilised enough that nobody needed insurance… I wonder how they’d do it? Oh, wait…

  OK, but health insurance only exists and flourishes because care is exhorbitant and at least 30% of it is waste.
  If care was not immensely profitable and wasteful, nobody would need insurance.
