It's not that complicated. Healthcare is expensive, sure.
It's made more expensive by allowing the private healthcare industry to operate in such a parasitic way.
Americans and their employers pay an obscene amount of money to insurance companies every year for "health insurance". In turn, those companies use that money to employ people full time to find ways to deny people the coverage that they pay for based on technicalities. They do this so that they can pay people like Brian Thompson more money.
It's a disgusting and immoral system that should not be allowed to exist.
