LEVIN: 'Our health care system has already effectively been nationalized'

On Friday's program, Levin discussed the effective nationalization of our health care, as well as mentioning an interesting little piece at PJMedia describing HHS 'strong suggestion' that insurers need to pay claims for consumers who haven’t paid their premiums, among other bankrupting, suicidal freebies...



The summary of that piece breaks down the reality of Obamacare's (and thus Obama's) desired move...

If the insurance companies go along with HHS’ “strong suggestions,” they stand the risk of bankrupting themselves, as the “strong suggestions” would have them pay out for services and drugs for which they may never be compensated, and for which they may never collect premiums. That’s not a bug, but a feature of where Obama wants to take healthcare in America.

Obama has therefore set himself up to use failure to claim that the only solution is government-run, single-payer healthcare. Which has been his goal all along.

And yet, we can't get the Republican leadership to effectively lift a finger to fight it...
