If you got health ins for $650 a month you got it made.
It's minimum $850/month here for a real low plan with a high deductible.

It's a pretty lousy plan...high co-pays, and I have to go through an out-of-pocket deductible even before the insurance kicks in.
You also made some good points, and I don't have a clue how it works in Mass, which has some state-specific features.
I'm also not an expert on this, healthcare insurance is not my field, never has been. But I know a lot about personal auto insurance, which also gets a bad rep, and for many of the same reasons...
Salty, it's a complex issue, and I don't pretend to have the answers. What I do know is that in most cases, it ain't the insurance companies that are gouging the public. And I know that any politician who says otherwise (and Obama went out of his way to demonize insurers in the debates) is either ignorant or deliberately lying...
