Interesting article on Aetna

Wendell Potter, Senior Fellow on Health Care for the Center for Media and Democracy in Madison, Wisconsin, takes aim at Aetna Insurance's jobs-slashing and dropping companies whose employees file too many claims.

The title of the article is

Obama's False Friends of Health Reform

The insurance companies see the probable program as a chance for them to have millions more customers and their eyes glaze over at the thought of billions more in profits.

Click on the headline if you want to read Potter's article.

For a CNN article on Potter's testimony before a Senate committee, go to:

This is scary stuff. Include the scare-words that billion-dollar companies, through their camoflaged surrogates, throw at the public to keep more billions rolling in.
