Maybe we could buy health insurance per organ system? |
|
I can't afford to insure my total health, but if there were an insurance company offering an itemized breakdown, perhaps I could insure part of my body against illness... :shrug:
I'll have neurology coverage, please.

2. If the insurance companies see a way to higher profits that way |
|
then I am sure that "choice" will be preserved for you.

It would be kind of like gambling. I'm betting no heart attack, no cancer. But I can still get MS!

10. Maybe we could even barter with organs that are duplicated |
|
say- 5 years cancer coverage for a donating a kidney to your insurance company, hell even a cornea... the possibilities are endless!

13. Start a new insurance company |
|
Coverage for cancer? Can't afford that, then may just one leg or the liver perhaps. Obscure diseases would be the cheapest. Heart conditions the most expensive.
The sad part is, it would probably make money and become commonplace.

15. Kneecap and Trade will be a successful policy ! All economists say so! |
|
and even if Doctors disagree, the policy underscores our willingness to sacrifice and prove our devotion to the FREE MARKET. Kneecap and Trade forever!
