re: Elizabeth Warren wants to hold health insurance accountable

or....


she could go frick herself?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is pretty much the definition of fascism, isn't it?

She wants the government to tell companies how to operate and how much money they're allowed to make.

Someone call ANTIFA.

In that article, she claims Massachussetts has the second lowest average ACA premiums in the country.

Well they are second alright but are second highest not lowest:

ACA Premiums by State

Warren’s speech laid out a three-part plan to rein in insurance companies: Crack down on the practice of shifting costs onto consumers; force private insurers to provide coverage as affordable as Medicare and Medicaid; and “call their bluff” if they resist complying with the first two planks.

She really didn't need to enumerate 3 parts. There's one part that the three parts will accomplish: drive private health insurance companies out of business.

Squaw rolling in heap big dumb arse!

Cost can only be placed on consumers. Obama care places enormous cost on the final consumer and tax payers.

Medicare and Medicaid under pay health providers who then must raise prices to her “consumers” to make up the losses.

There’s no bluff to call. No profit no health care. Try forcing Burger King to sell everything 30% off perpetually, and that closed sign on the front door would be reality not bluff.

The truly amazing thing is, I think she really is stupid enough to believe the ignorance spewing from her mouth.

Not sure politicians know the difference between private and public anymore.

Maybe the states where Pocohonas lives need to pass a law that dictates what she can charge for the dozen or so rental properties she owns. Maybe the state can dictate those properties need to be affordable for section 8 recipients.

How do you hold health insurance accountable? What does that even mean? Health insurance is a business industry, so of course they’re going to try and make as much money as they can. If I’m not pleased with my costs, I just choose a different provider.

To be fair, depending on where you are, you may not have anyone else to pick from.

We need to drive down health care costs and/or take the profit motive out of the health insurance industry
