MSNBC host berates Democratic lawmaker over soaring insurance stocks


Posted: Dec 19, 2009

This why I like Dylan Ratigan.  He holds everyone's feet to the fire, regardless of whether he/she is Democratic or Republican.

The health insurance companies' stock has gone up because they know they won't have any real competition because the government is giving them the huge gift of millions of new customers who have no choice but to purchase insurance from them because the Democrats are catering to a few specific Republican politicians (Mary Landrieu (sp?), Lieberman, Snowe, etc.).  I used to really like Debbie Wasserman Schultz, but this video shows what a true politician she is.

If so, that's probably why it's been making money for you all these years. Insurance stocks are a big money maker, always have been. Maybe you don't care if your investments lose money, but I sure do! And putting money into losing stocks is just plain stupid.

The "rich" are the ones who create the jobs. The oil companies (I will admit their profits are excessive), but they provide MANY jobs, corporate companies ...
