Scum. Health insurance should not be for-profit or publically traded. In reality, it shouldn’t exist.
It’s a service for the public interest and should be run by local governments, like roads, parks, libraries, fire departments, etc. The end goal of a service isn’t to make money but to be used by the community. This is also why running a country as a business doesn’t make sense - countries aren’t meant to generate profit. A nation is a safeguard for the people within against the unpredictable reality of everyday living.
Yes and no. Not profit, but surplus. Profit is something that is extracted- a surplus is available to be reinvested and improve the quality and quantity of services. Running a country like a “business” makes sense insofar as focus should be made on using generated surpluses to improve citizen’s lives. But we of course know thats not their target with said surpluses.
