that's the largest health insurer, following the footsteps of Aetna, the third largest insurer:

UnitedHealth to exit individual insurance market in California - latimes.com

So that's another 8,000 Californians losing their health plan.

So much for you can keep your health plan if you like it.

Many believe the Obama and the dems plan is for private heal care insurers to go lout of business so he can get Universal health care. Looks like it is working.

Indeed. One of the reasons I revile democrats is they don't tell you what they really want to accomplish, at least most of them.

Not likely, hospitals are still going to charge $15 for an Advil.

No, first and foremost, I'm saying President Obama is a liar.

This is how it is designed to work. This is the funnel to a single payer system.

The problem I have is that this ObamaCare deal is a big trick. Single payer health care was never on the ticket - because they knew it would fail. So we have to be tricked into it. They ran on better costs and better coverage - not single payer. It sucks because we all will lose.

Single payer is single control for whomever is controlling the costs - which is the government.
