    Capitalism is not the issue in this case. I’m certain that prostetics have adequate profit margins. It’s a lucrative business.

    The issue here is that the insurance company just doesn’t want to pay for it.

    It’s the insurance company that doesn’t have an adequate profit margin without screwing their customers over.

      Capitalism drives the health insurance company too. Greedy investors fund the health insurance decisions. All insurance companies, actually, with the possible exception of mutuals.

      That’s part of capitalism, too.
