I was already contemptuous as hell of the entire medical insurance system in the United States but being in my 50s has radicalized me to the point where I want the heads of insurance company executives on pikes.
@03a95182 insurance is a racket. In my 50s as well and it's a shame that I have to forego seeing a doctor based on money. I have to think about it say "I will wait it out and see if it gets worse". Not the best model! It really is a shame that it seems they want us to be unhealthy and dumb. So make healthcare and education almost impossible to obtain.
