    Yes, that factor still matters. When you buy in the marketplace, you still choose based on the price and quality of the available competing options. Jacking up prices for no reason is a good way to drive consumers to your competitors.

    You still don't get it, even those competitors will drive up their prices. Because of the absolute necessity, there is no good reason for an insurance company NOT to overcharge on their prices. Be it in the marketplace, Obama Exchanges, or anything else. None of that does squat to the basic monopoly that a Fixed Market imposes.

    You have no choices, or rather at best the illusion of a choice: Do I want to be ripped off 75%, or do I want to be shammed by 100%? Either way, you just lost BIG time. And for what? An insurance policy that'll hopefully rarely, if ever kick in?

    I'm sure you can jump right out of the saddle with links that prove that.

    And? I'm still waiting. You do know I can destroy your links about that right? Which is why you never posted one. Because they are only trick links to what Obama is saying. Your link will portray half the message. Mine will tell you the whole message. That is why you have not linked your message. I understand!
