The Patriot Post® · No More Insurance Companies

Ezekiel Emanuel, one of the architects behind ObamaCare, has a prediction: “[I]nsurance companies as we know them are about to die.” That could be good, though, Emanuel argues, since “Americans hate health insurance companies.” In a general sense he’s probably right, but then why did ObamaCare merely force everyone to buy from those hated companies? The short answer, as we’ve argued since 2009, is that the Democrats’ plan all along has been to work toward single-payer health care, which means destroying the current system, even better if “by popular demand.” But when Emanuel writes, “So be prepared to kiss your insurance company good-bye forever,” it’s not exactly “if you like your plan, you can keep your plan,” is it?
