re: #271 Bagua

You told an anecdote designed to say that a friend of your suffered due to wait times in Britain. However, it’s been shown by myself and others that similar stories are present here. You are now saying that your main argument is something else entirely. If your original argument wasn’t actually your argument, why’d you make it?

Your fascination with government bureaucracies while ignoring health insurance company bureaucracies is kind of baffling, as well. Private health insurance companies have incentives to be massively bureaucratically inefficient; the longer they can delay clearing a treatment, the more likely the person will have lost their insurance or moved to a different insurance company, and therefore not have to pay.

There is no free market incentive for health insurance companies to be efficient from the standpoint of their consumers. They are rent-seekers.
