You're missing my point. The point is that the insurance companies are screwing people when they need the help that they have paid in some cases their whole life for. And then their is the pharmaceuticals problem. Price gouging is rampant and should be dealt with. I don't give a crap that this is a free market and they are private companies, supply and demand etc. BS, they have us over a pickle barrel and then the government says you can't go to another country to buy. What a crock!
The system has issues and needs work. It's not working when half of all BK's are from medical bills. That's not good for the country or it's people.
And BTW, the truly poor almost never "turn it around" They don't have the resources to do that. It takes money to make money.
