Health Insurance Industry Exports its Wares


Has anyone else out there read the Asia Times lately? Check it out online. And when you do, you'll be interested - or maybe outraged - that the first place your gullible eyes go is a slick glossy banner ad, top-right.

My, oh my - don't those 'insurers' smell the money over there!!

So what a foul insult it was to this reader to see pompous WellPoint's ad in the Asia Times!

Just think - India, Burma, Thailand and China can all have the same priced-for-the-wealthy, dysfunctional and inefficient 'health'care systems in due time. Yes, it'll take some doing for 'insurers' to rig, complicate, then fully hijack whatever systems are in place.
But all the politicians (preferably corruptible ones) have to do is let the biggest healthcare middlemen get a toe in the door.

Too bad - it's already happened.
