Sounds a little bit like a conspiracy theory to me. Nevertheless, you do have a point, most people can't afford the basic Term Life Insurance, not to mention health coverage. Most of us just have car insurance and we're good to go. Hopefully the new reform, as unstable it may seem right now, will set the record straight.

The fact is that 17.6 million of that number has an annual income of $50,000 or more, and 9.1 million had an annual income of $75,000 or more. Sally Pipes reports in the Top Ten Myths of American Health Care: A Citizen’s Guide that the $75,000 per year group are among the fastest growing portion of our population that is uninsured.

Great post, Evan Falchuk. I’ve actually just started using #1 on one of my personal blogs, with the intent to do it on my business blog. I’ve found that prompting or asking for readers’ input is getting them to actually take the time to leave a comment. In essence, you’re inviting them to provide their thoughts and expertise, thus making them feel valued…it’s an ego thing

So it means that the organization has a big factor or effect why a health insurance is expensive. They also said that it hasn't change a lot.

Now that we are in the 21st century is the government don't have any plans to change the policies on health insurance?! Maybe if the health insurance policy will be well organized, health insurance officials will find a way to lessen its cost.

The very idea that each state can add mandates for health insurance coverage is nuts, such mandates have driven up costs by about 25% depending on the state. The idea that anyone selling insurance has to apploy to each state and meet all its various rules is nuts too. If we wanat to reform health care (or insurance) do away with 50 variations.

In addition, what we are calling reform now has serious consequences, espeidclaly for people who already have coverage. See my assessment at:
