YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

One of our journalists had open heart surgery. He also had to go to the dentist recently — and his dental procedure cost more.

Why? Private equity owned dental chains are raising prices.

And insurance giants are refusing to cover rising costs, making you pay more and more.
