I don't know how anyone can call her unbiased.

I'm sure you'll be very upset to find out Clarence Thomas' wife is helping purge the executive branch of those deemed disloyal to the dear leader.
The Spouse of a Supreme Court Justice Is Helping the President* Purge the Executive Branch
This is not normal.

Like former US Attorney Jessie Liu who got fired because she wouldn't break the law for Trump.
Exclusive: Trump's "Deep State" hit list
The White House and its allies have assembled detailed lists of officials to oust and loyalists to replace them.

so you stumble upon the operative word and somehow still miss the point?!?
I CHOOSE what to spend MY MONEY on, the government does not force me ... and poof, the commie dream disappears in a puff of logic
medical aid contributions are entirely voluntary, and it does not matter in the least, but I, and most people I imagine, contribute in order to help themselves, not others ... alas, the fund's rules are the fund's rules, and the laws that govern them is the law
fun fact: if the government got completely out of the way in medicine, and I do mean completely, there would be no need for medical aid to pay escalating costs and I would choose not to have medical aid and rather pay my own costs directly
What is the evidence for your claim that government regulation increases the cost of medicine?
In the Wild West, there was no government regulation in medicine. Anybody could call themself a doctor and perform any treatment they wanted.

High Costs of Insulin and Other Drugs Traced to Government Regulations, PBMs - The Heartland Institute

I see. Still, there has to be some amount of government regulation, lest we return to the Wild West.

Well thanks to the solipsism and bloody-minded dogmatism of people like you Americans pay much more and get much worse outcomes across the board - because universal healthcare benefits everyone, even the better off in society.
Technically the government has forced you to pay your money to a protection racket that has artificially inflated the cost of healthcare, to self insulate themselves, thus securing their future. The wonders of capitalism.
Yes without government the costs wouldn't escalate, but hey who needs regulation anyway, I mean the life expectancy back in the 1600's is a testament to that

excellent, so you've abandoned your weak straw-man and moved on to demanding evidence of something that does not exist
as soon as you track down a country, here, now, in the year 2020, just to be clear ... where government does NOT interfere in medicine, I will play your silly game
aside from that, regulation ALWAYS increases cost, ALWAYS, it even has a damn name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_law_of_prohibition
alas you will fail to connect those dots despite being given a map

Note to self:
If one day NBFTW loses his job and can't find another one, develops a serious health problem from the stress, and goes bankrupt and can't afford medical aid, then be sure to inform his entire community not to help him in any way in case they offend his sensibilities. He and his family is to be strictly left alone to die on the streets.
Don't worry NBFTW I got your back, I won't let anybody help you as per your principles.

spot the oxymoron, capitalism does not exist where the government forces anyone, something that does not exist cannot be blamed for the failures of others

Trump claims vaccine is 'very close' amid coronavirus outbreak — but White House says he was talking about Ebola
Trump's comments came as the administration has tried to ease growing fears from markets and governments that a pandemic is on the way.

The man is so stupid
So are Medical Aids in South Africa not examples of a capitalist business?
Profits, shareholders. They have it all.

no it is not, it is a great example of the USA's future though:
Healthcare in Somalia - Wikipedia
so they fahked their government system up unintentionally and got a much better outcome, yet they want to regulate again ... can lead a horse to water, can't make it drink
