Worse, we now have several of these. Was it some left-spun MSM types who did this? Their editors ought to fire them, or the owners the editors, or "we the people" the owners. We need neither these Eastern European constructs, nor the violation of Constitutionally guaranteed States' rights they stand for. The only regulation we would need is that if the same insurance company or its controlling organization did business in more than one state, then their products would need to become "portable" between these states. That would be in keeping with the Constitution's Interstate Commerce Clause, and would help competition to keep everybody honest. Above all, no citizen needs the subjugation through Administrative Law-powers that these guys will embody. It's nothing other than a Federal Executive Branch power grab. Worse, as I understand it, even when in the future WH occupancy changes, as I hope and trust it will, these folks and their fellow "apparatchicks" will remain. They will become the true informal "rulers" of America and all Americans, accountable to nobody and nothing except their own bureaucratic logic or lack thereof, presumably mostly the latter. This is a horror-scenario of the first order. We should leave such shenanigans to the Europeans. They're more experienced at this and still can't make it work properly or efficiently. From that fact alone we should all abstract the proper lesson. Czar? Who started on the road to giving such, in an American sense, utterly inappropriate job titles to these people?

It seems that there is only the liberal view that the subject is supported dead on by many noted scientists. So I come to Heritage for some answers. Thank you.

It is demonstrated to work in the real world vs the Democrat's bureaucratic nightmare and includes portable individual choice plans, universal coverage, private insurance & get employers out of the picture. Additional benefits might be to help reduce the catastrophic Medicare deficit & make illegal immigrants help pay for part of their health care costs. Who would not vote for that!
