I suspect you might vote no if you worked in the dental insurance industry.

I mean, in order to pay for the shit that government doesn’t consider 84% I’d assume insurance companies will just raise their rate.

That's not how loss ratios work.

By law if they "raised their rate" they would have to offer even more coverage after doing so.

Your point?

It's literally in the first sentence. But since you seem literacy-challenged I'll just reiterate that there's no causal link between this law and them raising rates.

"That's not how loss ratios work." That's literally my point. It's like you're just using phrases you've heard an adult say in an argument before without understanding their rhetorical function.

Just, because you have a literacy problem doesn't mean I or anyone else here besides you "doesn't understand ratios."

The fact that you aren't even capable of articulating what you think I'm getting wrong but are arguing it anyway just outs you as a barely literate trog trying to sound smarter on the internet than you could ever in your absolute wildest dreams hopw to actually be.

84% of $1 is $0.84, leaving $0.16, not $0.26.

>Your low IQ is showing.

The irony

>There is no reason to support this unless you are a dentist who wants to raise their rates.

FYI, overly broad statements like this make your whole argument suspect because they show you can't be trusted to be honest and/or think

Oh that's cute it thinks it figured out how to read and do math.
