What do private insurers offer for that 30% profit they're taking out of our health care dollars? What value do they add? Good questions!

Also, check out this comment on that post:
"In New Zealand private insurers do compete (private insurance is only like 40$ a month ;_;). Basically if you don't like the wait in line for services (which isn't very long if it's nonemergency) you just go private. They still compete.
It's not that hard >_"
Who's to say that we wouldn't have a tiered system as they do in many, many other countries? Wouldn't it be preferable for everyone to have at least some form of health care coverage, rather than the way it is now?
