It's a free market capitalist health system and it sucks for the people impacted by the price increase... but this is how companies make their profits. You keep looking for someone to blame, while denying that you want the govt to step in and do something about the pricing of their product. That's fine to admit that's what you want, but don't keep pretending you don't want any kind of socialized medicine, yet still want price controls when it impacts you or someone you care about.
