As soon as you show me how a chicken dinner can usually cost $10, but can sometimes cost $75,000 instead, I'll allow that this is not an idiotic mischaracterization of the basic nature of health care.

If you drive your car through the KFC window due to tragic combination of chicken grease, fingers, and steering wheel, your chicken dinner may very well cost $75,000. It makes sense to insure against that risk. But you don't have to insure against the $10 chicken dinners to insure against that.
