    so now you’re paying a private entity in this round about bullshit way for a service that isn’t actually the service you want but the service you want kinda is a side hustle for them in order to bring down their costs

    insurance may be the way forward because the situation is so far beyond fucked it’s incredible

    … but insurance shouldn’t be the answer

    just make the insurance compliance stuff law and also make sure to add that if the rules aren’t followed you’re on your own

      Oh, I agree. It’s perverse that the most effective way to govern is to outsource parts of it. It’s dangerous in other ways, but I will say that insurance companies can usually be relied upon to be greedy in ways that are advantageous in this particular scheme.
