    The owner class has a monopoly on violence, including financial violence.

    Doing something they don’t like will result in more violence (against the poors).

      Actually insurance has shifted towards preventative care because it is NOT actually more lucrative to treat symptoms in the current US medical system. At least not anymore.

      It may be more lucrative for places like the hospitals who get paid for the treatments, not preventative doctor visits. But for the insurance companies, those hospitals charge a lot more than your primary care or specialist in an office.
