I want to say no but state governments have already been telling insurance companies what they must cover, what the co-pays must be, etc. for a long time now.

All we are doing now is switching from the state goverment regulating insurance companies to the Federal government regulating insurance companies (which is the real issue we should be fighting).

But it’s not like we’ve had a free market in the insurance business for several decades.

This is a wedge issue meant distract people from the real issue ... total federal control of yet another industry (vs. State control that was already bad enough).

I'd sooner be inconsistently right than consistently wrong.

Then, no matter what they call it, it's no longer insurance.
