"No Insurance" conversation

...................but I have to pay off my hospital bill, $12k for 6 days stay in ICU. That is with a cash in 30 days discount (no insurance) with out that it would be $42K. Man, they really rake these insurance companies and people wonder why the premiums are so high! The system is so messed up I never seen a bigger bunch of crooks, no wonder all those people are smiling!
