As Sheldon Richman observes, the new Obama admin proposals include higher penalties for not buying health insurance. Why? Because the feds plan on forcing insurance companies to accept people with preexisting conditions. This, in turn, will prompt people to WAIT to get their insurance until after they get sick, which, in its own turn, will force the insurance companies to charge more, which will prompt more people to drop their policies until after they get sick, etc... So, the answer for this fascism applied to insurance companies? Fascism applied to the citizens!

MANY MANY republicans will go along with this regulation of insurance companies and individuals. They need to be taught a lesson at the ballot box if this happens.

Here is the blog piece by Sheldon!
