23. You're right. Private insurance is so much better.
It's great when claims get automatically denied, forcing people to fight to get them covered--if they indeed can. It's great when necessary tests and procedures are disallowed over technicalities. It's great when they tell you they won't cover the medication your doctor prescribed, or they're rationing it--even though what they're going to cover isn't sufficient for your needs. It's great when premiums and co-pays go up basically every single year. It's great when countless loopholes are created by insurance companies so they can get out of paying (but they never have a problem collecting your premiums). All so the CEO can get his millions, if not billions, a year.
