Also note that state after state is dominated by 1 of just a few companies. http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2009/06/pdf/health_competitiveness.pdf |
That's because it is federally mandated that you cannot buy insurance across state lines so it makes very little business sense to establish your insurance carrier in a new state if it's already locked up by someone else. Would you want to have to create an entire replication of your business in each state just to serve a small portion of the potential customer base?
I told you, the government involvement has crushed the entire concept of free competition.
