(Community Matters) Kip Keller forwarded this link to a Think Progress story from an insurance company insider about their long planned campaign to kill reform while charming the public and pretending to be for reform.
It’s really a duplicitous PR campaign. They will talk about, in broad terms, how supportive they are of health care reform, but they will be working behind the scenes to kill very, very crucial parts of reform legislation like the public option.
What kills me is how effectively the insurance companies are convincing families to work against their own self interest. The rest of us are doing something wrong if the same people who cancel policies on families of sick children and mothers with breast cancer and who routinely deny coverage for drugs and procedures already on approved formularies can convince these folks to protect the existing system and we’re not able to explain the value of reform.
