As long as consumers follow along, this will not change. We've allowed the US healthcare system to become a toxic cesspool of greedy insurance companies with laughable and corrupt government oversight. IMHO, The only way this changes is if everyone stops paying.

As a consumer, how do I not follow along? I can't just stop using healthcare for my family.
I feel like I must accept this scam because it's the lesser evil.
This exists only because of the lobbyist system of government, where consumer's voice is easily drowned by money.

Great! I'll start the next time I need a medical procedure. Of course, this protest will get only more and more effective - once my bill is sent to collections, and I'm forced into bankruptcy and become homeless, I'll amass all sorts of medical maladies!

The reply next yours says the same thing without the toxic feel that makes the internet a slightly worse place for everyone. Go out in that big world and find something that makes you a happier person.

You're right. Today's been a rough day, and I keep trying to tell myself that if I don't have anything constructive to say, I shouldn't say anything at all - but I can't seem to listen :/
