Don't look now but the health insurance companies are going to screw us--again

This is rich. This is perfect for the health insurance companies. I see online just now how the health insurance companies are going to A) raise their rates yet again and B) blame it on the health insurance reform that just got passed this year in Congress. Man, that is a beauty. That is so maniacally wonderful for them so they can get higher rates and profits but also so they can say "I told you so" and blame this President and Congress for trying to pass meaningful, helpful health care reform in this country. Wow. Machiavelli would be proud. This rate hike totally serves their purposes. It can put more pressure on President Obama and the Democrats AND it gives political ammunition and "talking points" to the health care industry's best friends--the Republicans. I can hear them now, going on Fox "News" saying how it's all the President's and this Congress' fault for doing it--and for doing it without them. Baby, that is some cynical, callous, beautiful moves. You can't get too much more cynical or devious than that without out-and-out killing someone.
