Evil insurance companies,
now benefiting immensely from Obamacare, no longer evil or greedy in spite of the fact that their stocks have nearly doubled in value from increased profitability?
From the New York Times: “With all the politics of the Affordable Care Act, people don’t realize how much the industry has benefited, and will continue to benefit, from the law,” said Jay Angoff, the Obama administration’s top insurance regulator from 2010 through 2012.
And, perhaps more interestingly,
with a fox once again in the chicken coop to help guard the chickens: “Eight months after the unit of UnitedHealth Group, called Optum, helped repair HealthCare.gov, the administration hired a top Optum executive, Andrew M. Slavitt, as the No. 2 official at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The administration waived conflict-of-interest rules so Mr. Slavitt could participate in decisions affecting UnitedHealth and Optum.” http://www.nytimes.com/…/health-law-turns-obama-and-insurer…
