Health-care task force girds its loins

Is so called HealthCare reform, only for the Insurance Companies to make Money it is not about People.

We do not suffer from a dearth of insurance. We suffer from middlemen that not only take an increasingly large cut, but strong arm both providers and patients, further obfuscating the provider-patent relationship. Just about everyone would be better off if we all paid for services out of pocket and kept only catastrophic insurance. That is, everyone except the insurance companies.

Even insurance companies would do fine with catastropohic coverage only. They would just employ less people.
