Lemme flesh out the argument here since some respondents and QT’ers seem to be missing the point.
It’s not just “greedy insurance companies are making health care expensive!”
It’s that *we built a system that incentivizes insurers to systematically ⬆️ health care costs.*

Best way to feel time is to look at kids grow! 10 years went by just like that. What’s in store for us in another 10 years? Looking forward. Happy Saturday everyone! 🥰 #throwback #notmykid #whatsadecade #youngatheart #love #family #missinghomealready… instagr.am/p/Cozp5R5LSrF/

2022 has been a year full of ups and downs, dishing me challenges and obstacles but also surrounding me with friends and family to comfort me and keep me company. I’m grateful for all that I have, but I do hope 2023 is a notch less intense. Love to all! … instagr.am/p/Cm3HqXENvqV/
