    To expand on this (and any ire that comes through later on is not pointed at you), that’s literally how insurance works. All of the premiums are pooled together, and the costs for everyone are paid out of that pool. Except that private insurers with profit motives are inserted in between, so it costs even more.

    Single payer would be less expensive and provide for more people, but ohhh noooo that would be socialism! You’re goddamned right, let’s fucking go already.
