Health Insurance - Do you need, and how much do you need?

Having health insurance is great. Not having it is terrible. Between the two extremes are a lot of gray areas, paperwork and a host of confusing medical and legal terms.If you're lucky, you'll have some choices when it comes to health insurance. "Your choice may be whether to take your own employer's health plan or get something else."

For just about everyone, taking the employer's health plan is the way to go. Even if it is the catastophic plan offered by Wal-Mart. If someone is working at Wal-Mart they can barely afford food.

I know people who spend $600 a month above what the employer pays for their employer provided healthcare plan .

Unless you have government or military provided pension/healthcare (like so many of the rightwingnuts here) expect to pay $800+ a month for decent healthcare. Probably much more for a plan that pays for prevention and not just catastophies.

Of what, healthcare insurance?

Question for you. Would you accept guidelines that state healthcare firms must be non-profit in order to be considered to provide healthcare to the country? That would bring down healthcare costs considerably.

The present system of the government forcing American companies to provide healthcare insurance is a huge drain on corporate profits. Japanese, Korean, and most other auto manufacturers do not have this huge expense. No wonder Ford. GM, and Chryster can't compete.
