It would be disastrous if you’re suggesting what Republicans are suggesting, that we should be able to purchase insurance out of state. You don’t think you’re covered now? You can’t get answers from your insurance company now? It’s a terrible idea.

Yes, you can shop around for auto insurance, but the options are about the same as my health insurance options. Granted my employer picks the company and I pick the plan, but is auto insurance much different? All the major auto insurers are practically identical with only a few dollars difference, Allstate, Geico, Prudential. Actually, I was just shopping for new car insurance this week and found them to be almost all the same.

My point above, however, was that my monthly premiums pay for when you have an accident and yours pay for mine.

The difference being that the average person get’s in an accident very rarely —EVERYONE uses health insurance these days.
