Insurance companies are at the bottom of the ladder of health service companies in net profits (about 4%) compared to drug companies (about 22%). It's convenient to hammer them but it will not solve the problem. Even the example of the women in Ohio, claiming her premium is now so much higher. The outrage of this! What most skip over is that the drugs she needs for treatment doubled in price but there was no mention of the drug companies. Again, the drug industry beat all others to the table with the President and now gets a free pass. This current legislation will do nothing to reign in costs because it does not address cost, only cover.Bill_Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-72190831477957335942010-03-17T20:44:04.458-04:002010-03-17T20:44:04.458-04:00Bill_C - Why is scapegoating the insurance compani...Bill_C - Why is scapegoating the insurance companies interesting? I can't discern your context. Interesting as in, it's the right thing to do [to go after the insurance companies] or as in it's a smart tactical diversion designed to placate the mindless masses who find some sort of hollow satisfaction in blaming companies for all evils not otherwise attributable to GWB? If the latter, we're in agreement.Mudgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10106218895150473141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-51695583146650646202010-03-17T18:17:20.599-04:002010-03-17T18:17:20.599-04:00Watching Bret Baier interview The One and Bret is ...Watching Bret Baier interview The One and Bret is weaker than almost anybody i can think of.

You have to appreciate his desire to stand on principle on a number of occasions but this flip-flop? Nothing has changed, it's a crappy bill and scapegoating insurance companies is interesting but what about the drug companies? Oh, they already did their "drug deal" behind closed doors last year with the President.Bill_Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-46369119685270376002010-03-17T12:16:32.691-04:002010-03-17T12:16:32.691-04:00Will Hammer be coming down for breakfast this morn...Will Hammer be coming down for breakfast this morning?axigstnoreply@blogger.com
