For-profit health insurance. Which imho should be illegal.

A lot of the US' quasi free-market, in-name-only health insurance problems would be solved by:

1. Requiring all insurers to be not-for-profit (critically: also including all corporate owners of insurers too)

2. Tying financial incentives and disincentives to outcome-based KPIs
