Myself, I think the health insurance should be shot and gutted like a freak point dear.
One of the the things that stuck in my memory when my father was passing away was that my father was confronted with the fact that if he divorced his wife he would have been better off medically. His wife's measly insurance was preventing him from having feasible health care. Dad was determined not to divorce her. She took a job out-of state and when Dad was the weakest and sickest he had to be uprooted to another land where he had no one. Dad had lived in the same place for over 20 years. To his tragedy or benefit his wife died. That left him alone in a city while dieing a slow, expensive death. It truly was appalling to watch him try and decide how much medicine and care he could afford and while estimating when he would die.
