Re: "And what if magic unicorns erase our debt problem?" And what if Sugar Plum Faeries drop from the skys and solve all of our nation's health care problems for us, without us having to lift a finger or do anything difficult? <g> Re: "Its a bit of a stretch to call Welfare Advantage, corporate welfare" Not with respect to the nearly $500 Billion dollars in direct taxpayer-paid SUBSIDIES that the insurance industry has received in this program since it's inception... and not with respect to the over one Trillion dollars that the C.B.O. projects it will receive over the next decade unless this SUBSIDY is stopped. Sure sounds like the very definition of "corporate welfare" to me....
