>> I saved well over 60% by moving onto a dental insurance plan.

So, if everyone saved well over 60% by moving onto a dental insurance plan, who lost on the deal?

My understanding is that insurance companies don't sell products they lose money on. Dentists' fees, like the price of hamburgers, is set by free markets which determine how much money a dentist will make based on supply and demand.

So, the question is, if you and everyone else saves 60% by having a dental plan, where does that 60% come from? Thin air?

And unless you have an answer, I will declare my previous statement to have been correct that insurance is not about saving money but about managing risk.

You live on a different planet. This is precisely how the market works now.

No, I live in the real world. You live in a world where you suck off of the other people to benefit you and a few like you.

You are a leech and a freeloader and expect other people to pay your way because you are entitled to it.

Witness the responses from your ilk. They feel sorry for you and don't agree with your way.

As I said before, and I stand by it. You have no idea at all what you are talking about. You are clueless.
