Shhee-it on Conrad’s public healthcare idea

The idea of forming “cooperatives,” similar, allegedly, to rural electric co-ops, is the not so brilliant idea of Kent Conrad.

First, that sounds almost like lipstick on the pig of Bill Clinton’s original plan.

Second, private insurers will game that baby like three-card monte, if they can. They’ll offer to provide “consultancies” for individual co-ops to negotiate with providers, if nothing else.

Somebody want to beat some sense into Conrad?
