  1. Larry C. Says:

    I hope pet insurance doesn’t ruin the market for veterinary care the way it has the market for human care.

  2. Stephen C. Says:

    I agree with Larry. The market works very well at the moment — same procedures humans get at fraction of the price.

  3. Ken Says:

    I’m not surpirsed that the states are addicted to tobacco. They can’t afford to have people quit smoking.

  4. Devon Herrick Says:

    Only one million pets have health coverage? That leaves a lot of uninsured hedgehogs, snakes, turtles and geckos.

  5. Vicki Says:

    Devon, this market works a lot better than the market for human care — probably because most pets are uninsured and the owners are paying out of pocket.
