Also I've been thinking about the work on the hill being done regarding health care reform as a bunch of "smoke and mirrors" but here you have clarified it as an "insurance industry status quo bailout" which is a much more lucid way to express the issue--thanks again! Love your voice on this topic! I have to admit I really didn’t understand the “silo” concept in regards to health care reform till I read this blog post–thanks!

Let the insurance industry provide some sort of premium, or call it an elite supplement for those people who demand frills. Why should the taxpayer pay for the myriad superfluous, often medically unnecessary, benefits that have no impact on outcome.
