If the insurers go under, don’t we end up with single payer? The industry is extremely concentrated as it is. Is further concentration better or worse for the consumer?
repeat after me “NO MORE BAILOUTS”
Aetna,WellPoint, UHC, Oxford - this means you!
Maybe the House can refuse to fund the bailouts.
This should be raised at every Republican primary.
Make the big-cat insurers sweat blood.
No way the Federal Government could stand up a single=payer system. Can you imagine the chaos if they tried to extend Medicare to everyone? NHS was erected with some difficulty after WWII because no country in Europe was so used to regimentation as Britain was in 1946 and so beaten down. A teacher for the DoD overseas schools I knew was in both Germany and England around 1950 and said she could hardly tell which country had suffered more, the “victor” or the “loser,”
