3rd largest insurer begins retreat from Obamacare
Finding out what’s in it: Aetna, the nation’s third largest health insurer and faced with $300 million in loses, has decided against expanding its participation in the Obamacare exchanges.
They also announced that they are re-evaluating their entire participation in the remaining exchanges.
In related news, Obamacare rates are likely to go up from 23% to 45% in Illinois, and 17.3% in Michigan.
But don’t worry, we’ve got the situation covered. We’re going to vote for Hillary Clinton and Democrats, the people that gave us this failed law. They’ll surely fix it!
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

You think health care is expensive now, wait till you see how much it costs when it is free. :0
-With Aetna’s announcement, this makes all *5* of the nations top insurer’s, who have recently reported massive losses within the “exchanges,” and an intent to get out of them, as much as they can, going forward.
-Individual State affiliates of the Blue Cross/Blue Shield organization as well, as Mr. Z has covered previously, have also reported similar losses & future intentions.
-As well, in Michigan in particular, BC/BS manages a majority of Medicare “medi-gap,” policies. By prior agreement with the State of Michigan and the Feds, BC/BS policy prices were frozen for the past 10+ years, –the agreement ends on January 1st 2017, and by all reports BC/BS intends to raise those prices 100%, and has already begun notifying policy holders.
