Insurance costs keep going up.

And yet they donated to Obama's campaign.

Something stinks.

"Insurance costs keep going up...And yet they donated to Obama's campaign."

No big surprise there. If you sell a product and a POTUS enacted a law making forcing every American to buy your product, you'd probably be pretty happy with him as well (at least in the short run).

Ultimately this will put every health care carrier out of business when the government forces them to cover more and more services, but then caps what they can charge. The government will start out being the carrier of last resort, but ultimately end up as the only source of health care coverage...and everybody will be mandated to have it.

Big Health Insurance also paid Mr. Gingrich huge "membership fees" to join his for-profit Center for Health Transformation, where, for their money, they got access to Mr. Gingrich, who then pitched their ideas to pols on Capitol Hill.

Here and here, for ecample.
