nigger the problem isn't the "profit motive", the problem is corrupt and zogged governments. plenty of "non-profits" and "foundations" do evil shit as well (like child trafficking and bringing in hostile invaders). and they will use the various structures to avoid taxes but also make it seem "good" to people that have grown up with a steady diet of marxist bollocks. the issue with the insurance is that they were able to lobby a corrupt government for many decades. it starts out with getting anti-competitive practices enshrined in law (like limiting who you can buy insurance from). and each year it's a little more and more. until you have things using the government to directly penalise people for not buying your product. this is the elephant in the room that everyone across the political spectrum should be focused on. they've got away with it so long that it became normalised. there is a point where people need to be put in jail for corruption and if that doesn't happen it doesn't matter what little operation you decide to do on the side, these companies will lobby to use the power of the state to make life difficult for you or just outright shut you down. until the issue of a corrupt government that doesn't give a single shit about the people is addressed nothing else really matters. if they can get away with gaslighting poor people to go die for zog then things like health insurance seems like small potatoes by comparison.
