Again...don't jump into an argument if you don't know what is going on.

Sorry. I read it wrong. My bad. I'm not saying you can't cut corners with things like books and transporation (if you happen to be lucky enough to live within 25 miles from the school,) but what I am saying is that it isn't always possible. It isn't always possible to go to the cheapest schools (and by the way, you do get what you pay for,) as it isn't always possible to get the cheapest health insurance (which is what this thread is really about.) What you have to realize is simply saying, "go find cheaper insurance" isn't always going to be possible. Saying things like, "go to the cheapest college" isnt' always possible either. Believe it or not, not everywhere is like New Mexico. Sometimes you do have to settle for what is available.

That is a valid argument. I am assuming that most of you live in a college dense area. I lived in an extremely college dense area when I lived in Boston and there were always a ton of colleges to choose from.
