Why Are Health Insurance Companies so Quiet?

In replying to a fellow Gather members remark on Health Care something came to me.

If we recall history when it became law that all should purchase auto insurance I don't think we heard a lot from the auto insurance companies about loss of business due to this because they merely sat and waited knowing that you would have to come to them. Not only did they realize that Federal and State government would force people to make them rich they as well placed a stipulation in dealing with credit reports to help up the pot a little penalizing all those with a mark on their credit ratings.

As the Health Care Bill is going we haven't heard much from health insurance companies in opposition to this disaster because in the end when we are forced to purchase health insurance again these companies will set back and wait as they know we will have to come to them. The slider will be if they throw in a credit rating scheme such as the auto insurance companies did this will help impose who gets the premium health care and who gets a pulse checked and sent home. I've read about 430 pages of the Health Care bull and I can honestly say that if I had of supported it I would not have after reading just this much of it.

Before everyone jumps on the "Obama nation" (why does that sound like one word) support group find a site and read till your heart is content instead of taking the government's word on it. Call your Senator's and Congressman/woman and ask questions about what you read and see if they can explain it to you after all if they support it they should know what is in the pages.
