My thoughts on this news

This is the American healthcare system, where corporations do not care about your health, all they care about is squeezing every penny they can out of you by increasing the price of healthcare related expenses as much as possible. Why is it that healthcare is so much more expensive in America than it is in every other modern country? The answer to that is simple, because the American government is run by an oligarchy who makes the most money by having high prices. In most modern countries governments have some sort of single payer healthcare system with price controls which prevents corporations from excessive profiteering of the healthcare industry. Not in America, in America the corporations can charge whatever they want and they do not care if you die when you are unable to afford to pay for your healthcare.
