      Why don’t they accept my $240 a month subscription plan that “graciously” allows me to co-pay $30 for every visit and then gives me 80% off meds that shouldn’t cost that much in the first place?

        That’s gotta be subsized, either through employer or Obama care. No way anyone gets a premium that low, unless maybe like a very high deductible plan for a healthy young single person? But that just makes your point even more of course.

      Egh that’s just more profit than anything. They are making sure they have the buying power rather than sending 85% of those sales to insurance.
