  1. They know with how bad the public health system has got that they have free reign to constantly increase.

    Our public health system has been allowed to rot by Fine Gael and Fianna Fail so people are forced to go private.

    This is a sneaky scummy way of privatising the healthcare system, the healthcare system is working exactly as they intend it to.

    Some might even consider this to be the point of bumping premiums. It’s classic late stage capitalism for these days: do you make more money by bumping up prices but with fewer customers? If yes, raise prices.
