True, sorry, I'm fortunate enough to live in a single payer Healthcare country. Although it desperately needs reform, vision and dental aren't really covered

Single payer insurance of any type pulls from a far larger pool than any company could have, lowering the individual cost and allowing a bigger risk coverage. But... what about all those insurance companies (of all types), as well as other industries that rely on the increased costs? How will they survive? /s

I work in auto insurance and 100% agree. Shocks my coworkers when don't think auto insurance shouldn't be all about profit.

Home insurance should absolutely NOT be government wrong. That's just government sponsored building in flood zones at that point

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

I mean they can stop allowing building in flood zones. Home insurance should not be for profit
