If the government wanted to increase the cost of health insurance and health care, what could it do?
Create a new, expensive federal and state bureaucracy? Check.
Expand existing federal agencies such as the IRS? Check.
Create a layer of compensated middle men to guide people through the process? Call them Navigators? Check.
Restrict participation by insurance companies? Check.
Restrict permissible insurance plan choices? Check.
Mandate coverages that many people don’t need? check.
Increase taxes, on consumers, on insurance and medical devices. Check?
Increase paperwork. Check.
Separate the cost of the insurance from the user’s pocketbook to remove the incentive of frugality. Check.
Subsidize selected providers of insurance? Check.
What do we call this comprehensive act to increase health care costs? How about the “Affordable Care Act?”
