Thread Name: BS: US Health Care Reform
Subject: RE: BS: US Health Care Reform
This is the part that worries me the most, Carol... The health insurance industry is made up of masterful crooks and lawyers who will scoure this bill and it won't take them anytime at all to figure out how to game the new system... Same as the banking industry... I say to put provisions in the bill that involves jail time for first offenses...

(But Boderdz... Isn't that over regulating???)

Well... Yes, it is and I thyink jail is all that corrks and lawyers understand... The banks still won't lend to anyone but other banks... Hey, we bailed them out... Same with the health insurance companies... And whatever happened to the 90% proposal rather than the 80%... If Midicare can operate on 3% then even if the crooks don't cheat they still will rake in hundreds of billions in profits by returning 80%... This is more corporate welfare...
