Healthcare now experiences the clash of the titans as 1960's Democrat President Lyndon Johnson's passage of Medicare under Congressional Democrat super majorities confronts America's Bummer takeover of Insurance. The political perfect storm created by America's Bummer remains.
Democrats want and always envisioned since the 1930's under Democrat President Roosevelt Socialized medicine or to soften the words to convince the masses, Single Payer. Democrat takeover of Insurance married private sector insurance to Medicare.
The 50ish conservative Republicans remaining in Government today want Insurance separated from government. Remainder Republicans want a rearrangement of the Medicare / Insurance relationship which leaves Obummer's healthcare law fairly intact. Meanwhile insurance in the private sector again means Insurance has a chance again for profits, to increase its policy offerings and to remain a viable entity over years.
If Insurance loses then Medicare and socialized medicine wins which means the masses receive a medical Medicare card and wait forever to cure halthcare ills. In the end, the masses won't ever receive healthcare and it takes a view of the UK National Healthcare system as well as Canada to understand what's ahead if Insurance loses.
If Insurance loses and Democrats win then 1/6 of the economy is controlled by Democrats in the form of revenue to the Democratic Party by the many interest groups to include hospitals, doctors, pharmaceutical, trial lawyers, public sector unions to name a few. For revenue, the Democrats are selling the masses ability to obtain healthcare. Wonders of the public Single Payer message vs true revenue intentions is the actual clash. Watch those Insurance stocks.
