I despair on this topic. No politician would ever be able to outmaneuver the insurance industry. Your blood must boil when you hear Repubs pontificating on the commitment to “Choice” (a.k.a. commitment to the wealthier class’ ability to retain real/boutique options; to the hands off continuation of the Insurance, Medical & Big Pharma Industries life blood) and the rest of the population finding themselves “gifted” w “affordable” plans, ie. “you’re on your own, buddy”. (and boy, is buddy in for a surprise at the end of the road. It always seems to me that talking about the way things “should be” in healthcare, misses point: the power of these behemoths will never let it happen….IMHO…..
