>> What bailout? Well, there is the risk corridor provision, but beyond that, Obama has promised he'll come up with more money for them. Hasn't explained where he thinks he'll get it, but he's told them he'll make sure they're taken care of. But your point is taken: the REAL screwing the taxpayers are taking are on the subsidies, which no one is CALLING a bailout but that's effectively what it is. Where taxpayers fork over subsidies, for no good reason at all, other than to make people WANT Obamacare. A family of four with an income of, say, 70K (certainly a comfortable living for most small families in most areas of the US), just get a nice fat subsidy for no good reason at all. They were buying their own health insurance before but because Obama care raised the cost of insurance, it gives them a subsidy so they won't complain. Nothing more than Democrats paying people to like Obamacare. A very dangerous precedent for a country that treasures its freedom.
