    I would think that the majority of that donation revenue stream is captured by the crooked health insurers.

      Alright then, obviously the solution is to just pay for each other’s care without the insurance so let’s start an office that facilitates the pooling and allocation of funds for healthcare costs to be covered based on specific terms to prevent misuse that…

      wait a minute…

        No, the obvious solution is universal healthcare funded by taxes. Healthcare in the sense of giving care, not withholding care.

        The benefits are so obvious arguing for the current US system is disingenuous.

          Yes that’s exactly the solution I propose, and the only way we get there is to elect a supermajority of democrats and single-payer minded independents. Many people in these comment threads do not agree with that plan.

          Until that happens, if you intend to throw any money towards Luigi’s jailors, I strongly urge you to throw it towards charity instead.
