I'll agree that this bill does very little to take away some of the tremendous power that insurance companies have over us and our health care. I was really hoping for more from this bill in that respect.
I may have missed it but did you ever comment on the issue of this thread. That no matter how you feel about this bill, or insurance companies. What I want to know is how you feel about our government have a the power to tell them to SHUT UP or they will be kept out of the exchanges in 2014.
That is a clear attempt to shut up the debate about this bill. It is that kind of Abuse of a power this bill has given them over the private sector that many of us did not want to see in the first place.
Obviously I think free speech should win out. However, I do understand what a struggle it has been for the administration to get people to understand this bill and how it will work. When insurance companies blatantly lie about why peoples premiums are increasing and blame it entirely on "obamcare", I can understand the governments frustration and desire to stop the spreading of misinformation.
You need to pay closer attention. They did not blame it entirely on Obamacare. In fact they pegged Obamacare for only about 8 to 15% of the total rise in cost, and for that the Admin threatens them. I am beginning to wonder if you care about the truth or not. Please do show me where they blamed it all on Obamacare?
You do know that the government has also spread disinformation about this bill right. Or do you not consider telling us it would lower costs and not add to our deficit to not be misinformation?
