YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The seven largest for-profit health insurers pulled in $1.7 trillion in revenue last year, with at least $54 billion in profit, while patients keep fighting denials, delays, prior authorizations, and medical debt. Even Republican Congressman Greg Murphy is warning that the industry has grown too large and too powerful, especially when companies like UnitedHealthcare get most of their revenue from government programs while spending billions on stock buybacks. Trump can rage about “big, fat, rich insurance companies” all he wants, but handing people health savings accounts does nothing to break the machine that takes public money, privatizes profit, and makes patients beg for care they already paid for. Ring of Fire's Josh G. discusses.
