Critics assert that the #CoOpFlops (nine and counting) are happening because the mean Republicans won’t appropriate more money for risk-corridor payments. But flopping co-ops wouldn’t need subsidies if they weren’t losing money in the first place. Why should taxpayers have to subsidize money-losing ventures? Why should we have to subsidize complete novices who don’t know what they’re doing, and have no business being in the insurance business? Why should we have to subsidize losers who wrote into law they couldn’t market their new ventures to the public? Why should we have to subsidize the wreckage of the wacky collectivist ideology that foisted co-ops on the country in Obamacare? The truth is that co-ops are flopping because the utopians who dreamed them up don’t know how to do anything other than chase unicorns and rainbows. The ideological chickens are coming home to roost. What about the 610,000 victims who lost their plans and their doctors – do the utopians care about them? Under Obamacare, you’re covered, except when you’re not. Who are the meanies, again?
