In a previous thread there was a comparison of health insurance to auto insurance, fire insurance or workers' compensation insurance. Virtually every vehicle in this country has some form of insurance. Some would argue if it is affordable, but there is no question that the market is heathy and competetive.
In workers' compensation insurance virtually every worker has medical coverage for injuries on the job. Market conditions vary state to state, but generally most agree that the market is healthy and competetive. In some states fraud is a problem, but fraud has not hurt availability in most markets.
Virtually every building in this country is covered for fire insurance. The market is healthy and competetive.
The same could be true of health insurance. I don't know why we don't make health coverage a higher priority than auto insurance.
