And if Americans really did have the ability to shop around for the health insurance they wouldn't need in a sane country in this first place, this might be a good thing.
As it is, anyone with UHC (like my family) will end up paying a higher premium.

Rates for 2025 are set already.
You can't switch next cycle like the rest of people prolly gonna do?
Which "rest of people" get a choice of insurance providers from their employer?
Or do you mean pay a hell of a lot more for a plan the employer isn't offering?
fair point, well tell your employer to switch, also tell your coworkers.
you are deff on point that they will extract to punish for this. but staying with them is a bad business decision unless your employer is getting kick backs.
Big companies will switch if the rates justify it, it's a yearly bidding war, and quite annoying when you have to change insurance cards and even a different provider because of things beyond your control. Healthcare should be nationalized and not tied to employment for so many reasons.

Has that ever worked for you? Have you only worked in small businesses or something?
If things were that simple, the CEO wouldn't have been assassinated in the first place.
Sounds like your workplace should unionize.
Not saying it would be easy nor quick but it would be a lot more effective than berating people on the internet who agree with you.
I did not berate the person you are defending, a person who has apparently been trolling people all over Lemmy and even got banned from c/news a month ago for it. And had their last post in this thread deleted for trolling.
They have quite the interesting modlog history as well.
i know they deff switch providers if they care to ever "save" money
Yeah, okay. The CEO will be very happy to see some random low-level peon about which insurance company ConHugeCo uses.
I'm thinking you're not actually in the U.S. at this point if you think that's how anything works.
I don't even know what goes on anymore. I've had good health insurance in the USA for years (I'm a trucker) but have not had health insurance in Canada for 7 years (because I'm a trucker of no fixed address and health care is provincial, i pay income taxes to an entity that issues my driver's license but denies i live there when it comes to my health insurance) My american health insurance doesn't give two shits where i live. My drivers license is to a post office box near my employer of 7 years. I'm literally homeless but consistently pay taxes and reside in one county in one province with a steady employer but i just won't lie so i don;t have "canadian" health insurance, which is never been my "birthright as a Canadian" like muttonhead socialists talk about, it's always been provincially determined while the federal government pretends it wasn't something that happened despite their resistance, when provincials had balls and thought of themselves as their region, not canadians.
Wait, so what happens if an American gets sick in Canada?
What point are trying to make?
American health insurance is better than Canadian because you don't have fixed residency?
no, try again. the point was more than clear.
