So why haven't the insurance companies jumped in and used their mega-buck ad
execs to promote bf? The savings would have to be immense according to the
Kaiser Permente and other studies. Ideas, anyone? Does the big money just go
with the market value system no matter what? Are we hopelessly out of the
loop because we are not engaged in the economic market with our product? At
least not *that* kind of supply and demand.
