   GovCo forces a company aka employer and the #deathcare industry get together and offer "Healthcare Insurance". They offer a flat rate to individuals, no matter their health. This rate is crazy cheap high value. They also offer insurance to families whose breadwinner(s) work at the company. The flat rate is gone. To cover oneself and one's wife and one's single child, one pays much more than 3x the individual rate (more like 5x for just the man & wife). This is discouraging family formation, no?

      @SLRock It depends on tax bracket. Clearly, you can have a lot of kids and cover everyone in the house if you can keep your personal income below certain limits and drawn on the income of others.

      There's no reason we can't have crazy cheap insurance under a single payer scheme, or even under a reasonably run private insurance system, but all of these outrages, both private insurance and Romneycare/Obamacare are going to leave us in a situation where single payer is the lesser evil, financially.

         @jeremiah @SLRock personally I think that’s all OBummercare/TrumpedUpCare/Romneycare are designed to do: drive us to single payer/
