The new coverage would start immediately, and the premium could not reflect the individual's health condition."</i><br /><br />This is a thinly disguised strategy to put private insurance out of business. No two ways about it. Radical liberals don't just want to offer a public 'option', they are actively working to put private insurance out of business.<br /><br />It will do so because this will force insurance companies to greatly raise premiums on everyone and, when premiums rise, private companies will be pilloried for greed and be even less able to compete with government subsidized public options.<br /><br />If people try to end run around the system, and they will, new legislation will be proposed. Such as raising the fines on employers until it's not cost effective to try to fight the system and/or simply 'enroll' everyone in a public option plan which, can only be gotten out of by proof of private insurance.Geoffrey Britainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01663224962346593872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6427940.post-87276656577844105672009-11-13T00:38:31.346-05:002009-11-13T00:38:31.346-05:00> Noooo!
