Forget the lotteries, car washes, and free donuts.

Everyone’s insurance, private or Medicare is going to go UP! A lot!
Family on 60-Minutes back in Feb., a son and father in hospital for covid19.
Son was lucky and survived.
Father - 6-weeks in intensive care - then he died.

A month later his widow got the bill that weighed FOUR POUNDS!
1 pound for each $1 MILLION they now owed!
Yes. Bill was for $4-million dollars.

Insurance co. refused to pay it so the hospital billed the grieving family.

Ultimately the ins. co. came around, but - they are going to want that money back!
And the way to do that is to whack all their subscribers with higher premiums. (Medicare will probably do the same.)

To avoid that? Get vaccinated.
Don’t? Premiums triple!

It’s the glory of “the invisible hand of the free market” ripping yer’ nuts off. Right Mr. Kudlow…?
