A quick thought/question on Health Care.
At the beginning of this year, my health plan was "not offered" anymore by my insurance co. They kindly (sarcasm) recommended another plan that was a Silver plan, and more expensive. So, I get on the health exchange and look for a cheaper Bronze. Well, no insurer in our area offered a Bronze plan. I pick up the phone and call Cap.Blue. Me: "Hello, I don't see a bronze plan". CapB: "We have a bronze plan, but it is not offered on the Health Exchange" Me: "I'll take it" CapB:"Ok" 
Question is: Are they not offering the bronze plans on the exchange so they can turn around and say, "see, the exchange numbers are low, it's failing" ??

Boy oh boy, do we need a not-for-profit, universal healthcare system or what?  I'd even compromise with a public option allowing people to buy into medicare until they qualify for the full blown program.  Remember that the for-profit medical insurance industry cares about one thing .................. PROFIT and making shareholders happy.
