A Simple Solution

So I drove by one of those weird billboards, you know the kind or maybe you've heard the ad on TV. The pitch goes like this: switch to company A for your auto insurance and you could save X amount of dollars. Now what's so odd about that you ask. Well, what is the crisis Obama is responding to in his health care bill? The rising cost of health care. Now could someone please tell why we are having price wars for car insurance and at the same time the cost of health insurance is so bad that Obama thinks the federal government needs to step in and fix it. Maybe the solution is to sell health insurance like car insurance. Come on Obama get a clue, deregulation is the key, not starting another government program we can't pay for and that will run out of money like Social Security and Medicare.
