A lot of people's insurance enrollment periods are coming up in the next few months. I'm thinking the insurance companies are either going to require the vaccine, or no insurance, or jack their premiums way up if they don't get it.

You make a great point.
Any insurance company who doesn't raise their prices for the unvaccinated would be making a big business mistake, IMO.

Why not seriously jack up the rates for overweight people? Like, massive hikes I'm sick of my premiums being so ridiculously high to off set those peoples poor lifestyle choices.

The premiums are high because the insurance companies know you'll pay them. They're not dumb, they're just corrupt and predatory in ways that are difficult to understand. They have building full of actuaries and lawyers that figure out how to milk people for all their worth, and there's plenty of money floating around in those buildings. We're stupid for letting this shit happen though. We'd all have way better access to health care if came out of our taxes instead of relying on this privatized bullshit.

I was arguing for the insurance not the hospital system. think more along the lines of medicaid and medicare, which put most private insurances to shame and help keep rates down for medical services.

Taxes are social insurance. Un-privatized society insurance. And look how rife with fraud and waste that is.

You likely wouldn't realize you got infected because you are vaccinated. If you became infected you already have antibodies so you likely wouldn't get sick or become infectious or only very slightly so.

It's significantly less rife with fraud and waste than privatized insurance. pretty much every country that has socialized medicine does a better job with public healthcare than we do. If you get sick, then you go to the hospital and pay a few bucks and move on. people don't declare bankruptcy over a $30,000 helicopter ride or a $2,000,000 medical bill for a hospital stay with a surgery. Not sure where you live, but people think our healthcare system is insane anywhere that I've been that has socialized healthcare. When they get sick, they just go to the hospital and get care. There are no worries about cost because it's already paid for by their taxes and they know that.

gotta be careful with this now too, sadly. Vaccinated people are showing similar levels of virus in the nares from Delta variant when they get infected, and they can definitely spread the virus pretty easily. That's part of way mask mandates are popping back up. The other major part is unvaccinated idiots.

Because the virus put a bullseye on them for their own choices.

Not trying to place blame because I know not all overweight people got to that point by choice ...but morbidly obese is a category I'd avoid at all cost.

This mixed system doesn't work, it needs to be either totally private or totally government run imo.

Pretty much nobody chooses to be fat or old. People make life choices that have consequences. I'm sure also you make poorly thought out choices that have bad consequences. Other people are out there watching your back to a certain extent, so you should do the same for others.

Furthermore, you're underestimating obesity as a disease. It's a motherfucker for some people to loose even a few pounds on borderline starvation diets. On top of that the american diet is outdated from a health perspective. We fixed hunger a long time ago, and we turned the surplus foods into stuff that rivals the addictivity of cocaine and created a culture to support and promote it's consumption as part of a regular diet and for enjoyment.

I'd buy that to an extent. lots of those insurance companies use medicare pricing to set their own price limits for what they're willing to pay too, and that helps keep costs down. I know it's not as simple as that, and the whole thing is a complete racket. there's big money business corruption throughout the whole system, but I think that stems largely from private sector business practices. People in business want as much money as they can get. I think we'd have a lot less healthcare availability and lower quality on average with a totally privatized system, and there are lots of good examples of government health care systems out there. I'd be okay with a governmental system with privatized electives and options (nose jobs and that kind of thing).

Might as well jack up the rates for drug addicts and alcoholics too, cause we
have no will power and choose that 'lifestyle' and we are a burden on the health care system.
