I don't see anyone complaining about the massive amount of money spent on education to pales in comparison to insurance.
But! But! Education isn't making people die. Hmm.. IT ISN'T? By forcing students to pay 10's of thousands a year and not providing them a way of being able to purchase healthcare. Maybe the SCHOOLS are the problem? Maybe instead of socializing our healthcare program we can pass some sort of law which will help students such as the OP take some of the massive amounts of money going to his school and reroute it to healthcare costs? IE, lets fix the problems and not fix a problem which is not there for many Americans.
I like how the insurance company's unaffordable product is somehow the school's fault.
So the student can afford, lets just throw our a round number.. $25,000 a year for the next 4-8 years to get through school.. but they can't afford a couple hundred a month for health insurance?
BUT.. BUT.. They can get loans for the school. Hmm.. Maybe then the school should find a way to include insurance into their costs so the students who cannot work either by choice or by university rules can get it? When you are talking $100k+ for an average college education, you don't think we can find some way to make an insurance payment for that timeframe as well?
Maybe schools with medical schools should provide FREE care to its students? Regardless of preconditions, costs, etc? Oh wait, we don't expect Academia to actually PRACTICE what they preach do we?
