0bama gave the insurance companies $3 billion to cover their losses. Congress gave him no authority to do so, he just did it.

In reply to ted.

Are they losing money??…just ask the typical family practice doctor if he can cover his/her overhead based on the medicaid reimbursment schedule.

The big insurance companies like Blue Cross blue Shield et al are too big to fail and they have been in on this Obamacare scam as well. They willingly accept Obamacare regulations as it means more business due to mandated policy holders forced to buy their “private” healthcare insurance policies through exchanges. Obamacare guarantees these big insuance companies captive customers with no downside loss because they’re too big to fail.

Are they really losing money or is this an accounting gimmick like GE used to avoid paying taxes.

It’s all about the “crowding out” of the free market system thereby allowing monopolistic government entites to overregulate all profist out of privately owned, independently operated business leaving only “fair minded” government agencies with the politically correct democrat voting bureaucrats to rule over nationalized industries.

And just like the timely and opportune announcement about “lone wolf” Jihadi’s being discovered in America just before the vote on the DHS funding bill which just happens to include the presidents un Constitutional illegal alien executive order this media news piece is strategically let out on the catastrophic results that will occur (and the administration will guarantee it) if Obamacare is mortally wounded in coming weeks in the Supreme Court.

This is the calculated beginning of the end for free enterprise and market based business in the healthcare market place and is the road to single payer socialism if the un Constitutional law passed only by the Democrats is not stopped. Right on schedule, 21 months and change left to accomplish it if the Republicans who now control 2/3rds of the government do not do what MUST be done.

And if they do not stop it we can all assume that the powers that be in the Republican party were complicit.
