Truest statement of the week


The debacle of the rollout of HealthCare.gov is bound up with the pro-corporate character of the entire Obamacare scheme. With every tortured turn, the failure of the web site has underscored the fact that the ACA has nothing in common with providing “affordable,” “near-universal” health care for ordinary Americans. Rather, it is aimed at rationing and cutting care while boosting the profits of private insurers and the entire health care industry.
