On the positive side, it would void crazy state mandates (see upcoming post about New York insurance). On the negative side, it would allow a liberal Federal government to impose crazy Federal mandates that couldn't be avoided merely by moving.@nooil4pacifistshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16688417615117569825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6427940.post-36231274117341883122009-09-20T19:42:22.540-04:002009-09-20T19:42:22.540-04:00Carl, I agree you physician is an idiot on this on...Carl, I agree you physician is an idiot on this one.<br /><br />I was unaware of any of the rest so thanksThaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00700253024420397221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6427940.post-23236737604417127462009-09-17T16:56:57.626-04:002009-09-17T16:56:57.626-04:00Hmmm.

Part of me here says "look deeper".<br /><br />Isn't there a push by some to norm insurance across state lines, to simplify it, so that a policy on an individual in one state will be the same as the policy on the same individual in another (assuming there aren't clear differences, like life insurance in NYC vs. the same in Podunk, Wyoming)?<br /><br />If this becomes the bailiwick of the Fed, rather than the individual states, would this not come true?<br /><br />That's not an argument in favor of, or against, such... It's just a possible explanation of where this push is coming from, which should always be examined for reasons of ulterior motives.OBloodyHellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992539380115488567noreply@blogger.com
