For a long time it is clear to me, what the biggest problem in our health care system is. It is the power health insurance companies have. The law is obviously on their side, we the "consumers" are not treated fairly. Who created these laws that allow the insurance industry to take advantage of sick people? Why is it so difficult to change this injustice? Why is even President Obama careful not to step on their toes?
In other countries, like France or Germany private insurances are providing coverage alongside government programs but they are heavily regulated. They would not be allowed for example to revoke a persons coverage because they got sick, which to me is absolutely absurd, wrong, unfair and plain evil.
I wonder how people who work for these companies sleep at night after they denied a very sick person the help they deserve after paying the premium every month.
How can anybody feel safein this country?
