Carriers Colluding with Government

[Googly Moogly]

As is typical in socialist governments, some of the largest players in industries try to cut sweetheart arrangements with the government to try to play the nationalizing game in their favor.

Here we have Blue Cross hoping they can walk the fine line of getting the government to order everyone to get insurance but still keeping the industry in the private sector.
Next week, you will here Obama saying that even the insurance carriers agree that it would hold costs down if everyone were in the system. These carriers are starting to function like defense contractors hanging around the Pentagon trying to get their deal rather than trying to preserve competition and free enterprise.

Nasty. Very nasty.

That would be more like Fascism.

That would be more like Fascism.

Could be. I don't know. All of the "isms" avow one thing but live by another so it a matter of whether you define them by what they say they are or what they really are.

The National Socialist Party of Germany was a fascist organization. Communist China is in fact the biggest capitalist country on earth now. Communist Cuba is simply a government dictatorship with no power to the people whatsoever.........and so on.

That of course begs the question as to what capitalist America is now. Don't know.
