True, but only stuff that is naturally scarce, which is why sugar taste so sweet.

UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Fatally Shot in Manhattan
Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was fatally shot on Wednesday morning in a targeted attack outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel.
Thompson was in Manhattan for UnitedHealthcare’s 2024 investor conference when he was killed.
The New York Police Department reported that the suspect fled the scene and remains at large; no arrests have been made.
I was watching an interview of Eric Bethel on YouTube. He was saying that in China, there is no moral code. We are probably better than China as people but man a health system that exploits its children because its legal is not the nicest.
Insurers reject about 1 in 7 claims for treatment, often by deciding the treatment is not “medically necessary.”
or forced a family or an individual into bankruptcy
it would not surprise me if the killer stalked Thompson because UnitedHealthcare had denied medical coverage,

This is my first post, so let's try and take it easy. I work for small company (less than 10 employees) and Aetna is trying to jack up our premiums by 33%! To add insult to injury, that price increase would also qualify our insurance as a “Cadillac plan†(which faces a 40% excise tax come 2018 -- see above link for details). I'm wondering if other individuals or companies are facing similar increases? Call this an informal survey (please try to hold off on the mud slinging for a while). It looks like we'll be going to a plan with higher co-pays to try and reduce the premiums to a more reasonable level. The one third increase, though, still seems ridiculous. We had actually jumped ship from a different insurance company last year as they had tried the same thing. I'm assuming the insurance company can't just jack up our rates (thinking we are 'locked' into their company), but has to offer the same rates to all customers in their small business pool. I'm seeking comments from others on their plans. Is Kaiser facing similar increases? Or are they going to gain share as a reasonable alternative? Or are HSAs becoming more prevalent? What is happening to your overall premiums? Is the company picking up the increase or does it all fall to the employee?
