If Parallels Were Made Between Property Insurance & Health Insurance......... [View All]

[global1]

Seems to me that when a hurricane blows through and devastates an area of this country - we always hear stories afterward of insurance companies not paying for the damages, denying claims, raising premiums or worse yet - not even offering insurance and pulling out of an area.

For months in the aftermath newspapers and news reports criticize these actions by the insurance companies and letters to the editor and comments by the people are very negative against the insurance companies.

People seem to understand when they are getting ripped by insurance companies in these situations.

It is much the same with 'health insurance' and I'm surprised that people aren't drawing the same conclusions and not understanding what 'health reform and health insurance reform' mean for them.

Are we that dense or does this parallel need to be spelled out more explicitly?
