You haven't told me why it isn't redistribution? The semantics game: $Gov. subsidy - $employer - $insurance - $you & $dr.
Only personal insurance is voluntary, but so is Medicare. And the Obama plan required everybody to have some "type" of medical care. But regardless of these side issues, the redistribution occurs, so..................
You might be interested in this tidbit subsidy I help pay for as well.
The funding provided in George Bush’s Medicare D plan for Medicare Advantage plans is an example of corporate welfare which does not benefit patient care. Under the program, insurance companies are provided more money than it costs to care for patients under the government’s Medicare program, despite the insurance companies cherry picking healthier patients.
