It was all designed to fail. No one thought for a minute that you could force insurance companies to cover people with diagnosed diseases and they could stay solvent. What Obama wants is a single payer system with the federal government dictating who will get what treatment and when. In other words socialized medicine.

Didn’t seem to be any big problem in my state for the previous 8 years. In fact, more medical insurance companies came in. There was a nine month waiting period for pre-existing conditions but beyond that very few exclusions. Now Kaiser is coming in and buying a big co-op (Group Health of Washington).
Yup. Totally planned this way. Insurers ribed big time to go along with it. Congress pukes bribed to go along with it. Mary landrieu the 300 million dollar whore.
i think what you say is true; however, i also believe this is the insurance industry going back in for another handout to keep their profit margins higher, expecting that Obama won’t let them down because he wouldn’t want one of his signature accomplishments to suddenly look worse than it actually is. does anyone wonder why healthier young people aren’t signing up? many cannot afford the current premiums [much less proposed higher ones] on their meager salaries, and when you factor in the outrageous deductibles, it’s cheaper to opt out, except if something catastrophic health wise were to occur.

What Obama wants is all the money for medical plans to flow thru the government so he can get his hands on it to buy votes and “redistribute it all.” Remember back to when Social Security funds were “borrowed.”
