Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi accused health insurance companies of making "immoral profits" on PBS' "Newshour." "They're making billions of dollars in profits while they're cutting off people for benefits," she added."

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

I want Pelosi to send ME some of HER immoral profits that make her and her husband multimillionaires many times over!

SURRENDER YOUR PROFITS, STRETCH! NOW!

Pelosi: Insurance Companies Are Making "Immoral Profits"

....and their is no reason why congress shouldn't get a cut of that action.

[Jeff Head]

Par for the couse for this abject Marxist. Any profit is immoral according to these annointed ones...they must take it all and then reallocate it themselves.

Just like the Obamanation.

They are treading on ground that is infirm and prone to complete cave ins and grave consequences.

I don’t know how to describe it, but I know it when I see it.

[The Antiyuppie]

She’s just angry with the entire medical industry, and with very good reason, about the “bug-eye” plastic surgery. Anyone would be, frankly.

[xjcsa]

What on earth is the phrase “immoral profits” even supposed to mean?

[LukeL]

The government has a profit margin of 100%. Even higher since they print their own money when they want to.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

ROFL - yes for sure. No matter how they try, stretch just continues to be - well - stretched, doesn’t she?

"Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi accused health insurance companies of making "immoral profits" on PBS' "Newshour." "They're making billions of dollars in profits while they're cutting off people for benefits," she added."

A common battle cry of Communists.

[del4hope]

Yet they make so much less than her Hollywood lap dogs. BTW, we have not heard much from them lately. Will the movie industry ever be vilified for being immoral? Nope.

Bela Pelosi added an amendment to the bill that increased the minimum wage. It exempted Guam from the increase. Starkist fishing operations are headquartered there. Guess who has a large holding in Starkist. IMMORAL PROFITS???

[freekitty]

Let’s see how many immoral profits you are making, Pelosi.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Ha! I want her profits - and I want them NOW! Turn them over, Nancy.....time to redistribute YOUR wealth!

[trustandobey]

Just remember “ma’am that what you are doing to us is immoral as well and its only a matter of time until you are called on it. ENOUGH!

[G Larry]

Hey Nancy!
Is it “immoral” to:
-Guarantee slave wages for illegal immigrants, rather than providing the means to assimilate into American society, which is far more racist than pretending to “respect their culture”,
-Give everybody an insurance card and pretend it’s providing healthcare,
-Devalue life through abortion, euthanasia, and the restricted availability of real healthcare?

[MarkL]

Well, if anyone knows “immoral profits,” (and most likely illegal profits, on the backs of taxpayers), it would be Pelosi.

If health insurance companies are making such profits it begs the question why more investor don't start new health insurance companies, undercut everyone else and take all the business?....

Fair bet it's government regs that make lower cost competition impossible or the real profit margin is not what the Queen Bee is saying

[Republican Wildcat]

Fair bet it's government regs that make lower cost competition impossible or the real profit margin is not what the Queen Bee is saying Indeed - and hold monopolies in certain markets. Just because it is a "private company" doesn't mean it is "free market." Congress can actually pass some laws to break that and lower costs and increase choice and competition, but they won't...it would make sense, and would actually be constitutional in the cases where insurance companies could be allowed to sell policies across state lines.

[PubliusMM]

It is always about CONTROL with these LibTards. SanFranNan and her hubby make millions every year. Is that ‘immoral’, too?

It’s time to take back the country.
