What Does the Democratic Party Actually Believe?

70. Nor did I say anything about "eliminating insurance companies"

Why are you so dedicated to attacking me for things that I DID NOT SAY?

There are many ways to reform the delivery of health care that do not require elimination of health insurance. Study Europe and you will find at least a dozen examples.

"it is factually inaccurate to claim that insurance companies are guaranteed 25% profit margins."

Which an another thing that I DID NOT SAY. I said that they are "guaranteed a 25% markup." If you have a smattering of business knowledge, you know that a 20% margin that the insurance companies are capped at requires marking up the cost by 25%. For example, if the provider charges $4 for a service, the insurance company adds $1 to that, which is a 25% markup. The resulting charge to the insured is $5, of which the cost to the insurer is $4, or 80% as required by the ACA. That is a 25% MARKUP, as I stated in my comment.

You are so busy playing attack dog that you merely display a vast degree of ignorance.
