<<Here is an off the cuff quick idea - after some simple means testing, offer those who lost jobs Medicaid. Continue those benefits even after the person runs out of benefits, until they find a new job - and better insurance.>>

And here is another simple idea, do some "SIMPLE" means testing on all the upper echelon of all the big Humana, Etna, big banks, brokerage firms, Fannie, Freddie, Country Wide GM and etcetera and cap them at a million and if they do a real bang up job and can prove it.. 1.5 mill..if not they can "find a new job" because the vast majority are not special.
Look at the history of the last two years and show me i am wrong.

<<since when is it that Americans came to despise profits>>

As above.

<<developed this profound faith in the wisdom of the Capitol Hill politicians?>>

They are as out of control as the list above, our grand children's grand children will never pay it off and a train wreck is immanent.
