This is eerily (well, it is Halloween!) reminiscent of the way banks were threatened with losing their charters if they didn’t relax their standards and provide loans to people who were huge credit risks, in order to bring the American Dream of owning a home to disadvantaged minorities. We know how well that worked out.
I would put that particular data in a memo on a computer that is not well protected. Then direct someone the hack the computer, steal the memo and make it go viral. Then publish it in the news. The insurance company said nothing. Some hacker broke in and stole the memo!
It’s starting to get ugly. I won’t be surprised if we start seeing dead bodies littering Marcy Park.
How unexpected - a random act of journalism from one of the LSM. LOL
I wonder what is up with Anderson Cooper? He’s has actually done this a couple of times now. I won’t bank on it becoming a habit but it is nice to have some actual truth and reporting. I am so disgusted with the constant stream of propaganda.
I could be totally wrong about this, but I’m starting to think that the whole Obamacare fiasco, from the 5 years of lying to the crappy roll-out to the increased rates and the loss of options might actually have some real effect on the makeup of both houses in 2014, and of the big prize in 2016.
The disinterested, low-information voters who make up the bulk of Obama supporters may finally wake up. The other scandals—Fast & Furious, Benghazi, NSA snooping, IRS targeting of conservatives were, for the most part, of little import to the above group. Indeed, the targeting of conservatives surely brought them much joy, if they paid attention. But the Obamacare mess is different. Beyond the fact that their beloved leader looked them in the eye and lied to them every day for five years might raise a few eyebrows. But, it’s what he lied about that can and should get some real attention.
Obamacare is not some esoteric scandal that has no effect on their everyday lives. It is a real pocketbook issue. These people understand and they feel the pain when their insurance rates double, their choice of doctors is limited, and their co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles are raised. This is not an ivory tower theory that some eggheads or pseudo-eggheads blather about on MSNBC. This has the same effect as when gas goes up to $4.50 a gallon. Many, many democrats are finding out that they will have fewer dollars left at the end of the month to pay for what they need and what they want because Obama has set up this intricate, unwieldy system. And they might actually vote (many for the first time) for someone who vows to repeal it, i.e., a republican.
Yes, I am well aware that there is a large nucleus of Kool-Aid drinkers who will vote democrat even if Obama rounds up their first-borns for execution. But there are some that might finally see the light. Possibly.
I don’t understand why they don’t just open up on Obamacare as they all know the ACA is just a step towards single payer, and they will be out regardless.
Obama, and the Democrats are using them only as a means to distract the citizenry during transition to single payer.
Maybe (as they watch their access to medical care recede in the rear view mirror) it is occurring to some of the girbilists that at some point useful idiots become disposable idiots.
Speak out!!!
