Why doesn't the American market provide efficient and effective health insurance like it does for car insurance?
Car insurance is relatively simple. I shop around, telling them how much coverage I want. They request my driving history, and give me a quote. At any time, I can shop around and change insurance policies without any problems. Once it’s time to collect payment, it’s a relatively simple matter. What makes health insurance so...

As for 4K, because I don’t have a screen that can display...
