Yeah, it's the same sentiment I have about placing my faith in Wall Street and leaving them as lightly regulated as possible. Seems to lead to bad outcomes over and over. Obviously, this was one illegal case. The thousands of Americans who got sick and had their coverage dropped legally should be thrilled with the outcome that the free market dictated for them. But folks who belong to a pool of government-backed insurers and can't be dropped can afford to heap scorn on those outside the pool, right? Must be nice and cozy.
