I had personal insurance for 2 years and my premiums went up at least 3 times. During that period I never saw a doctor, nor had any claims, and I was single and 25. Why do you think my premiums went up? My guess is so the insurance company could cover losses elsewhere. So, don't you see, you're already part of a social program.

I guess it comes down to choosing between two evils: corporate greed or government corruption. I suppose I would prefer government corruption -- at least they're accountable (to a degree).
Here I go interjecting again.

A few points to ponder:

1) if the corporation is corrupt, who regulates them?
2) if the government is corrupt, who regulates them?
3) if a corporation is losing money how do they continue to operate?
4) if a government program is losing money, how does it continue to operate?
5) How many private corporations went out of business last year due to failed practices or poor structure?
6) How many government programs have ever been shut down due to failed practices or poor structure?
