The co-op lost $50 million last year, partly because over 20,000 more people had purchased the insurance than originally estimated.
Funny how most private companies don't fail from having too many customers. Must be a government thing -- Lose a little on every customer and make it up in volume.

They expected the young and healthy to sign up so they can pay in without drawing on services. Instead, they got the sickly who slammed the system.

It would be as if they had created Social Security only now, but only the seniors signed up.

Nice. Loose money on each person enrolled and make up the difference in volume.
