We haven't got the actual numbers yet, but word on the street is my health insurance costs are going to go up a LOT this year....and they've been going up a lot for the last several years.  If the numbers hold, I'm going to have financial issues next year.  I'm guessing I'm not alone.  The system seems to be broken, but admittedly, I don't really understand the system.

Yeah, but the financial industry didn't stop existing. It grew back.

People will literally have to be retrained to take different jobs.
But who?  Certainly not the actual medically trained people.  It will just be bureaucrats and insurance types.  And they can either find a real job, or they can get another bureaucratic job.  Actual nurses and doctors and what not will be just fine in any such transition.
