“I remember the good old days when health insurance was fully covered by the employer - back in the 80s and 90s at a previous employer.”
I remember when employers didn’t have to cover health plans. Medical costs were a lot lower and Drs didn’t have to have a office person to handle all the paperwork. Don’t get me started on the lawyers roll in the “Medical Industry”...

Just like college tuition--UP! UP! UP! since government got involved.
Someone should make a study of how EVERTHING the federal government touches quickly goes out-of-control becomes a very expensive problem for all of us.
I cannot think of any exceptions. 100% FAILURE RATE!
MILITARY: Perhaps mil. is the exception where government needs to be involved; but, there are persistent suspicions that the U.S. is falling behind even there...politicians forcing the money into obsolescent systems, and driving out the good people with Woke.
Intel community and FBI are perhaps the worst.
I remember when Doctors made house calls and my Dad paid in cash from the roll in his pocket.

I remember going to the primary care doctor and paying with a $5 check. Five dollars!
That's how they roll.
I remember when your medical business was private. I received a letter a couple of weeks ago detailing what the insurance company can/must tell the government that isn’t covered by HIPPA.
