Here is the perfect quote from the column.

Posted by David (aka David) Oct 29 '13, 09:52

"The whole idea of the insurance expansion isn't to get Americans to purchase anything called "insurance." It's to get them to purchase a specific kind of insurance, a plan that is relatively comprehensive and helps protect against financial ruin. If Americans were going to be required to buy a product, the reasoning goes, it should be one that can actually do some good."

It's a great point, but it doesn't address the mislead on "If you like your insurance, you can keep it". - ty97 Oct 29, 09:54 3
- The column itself does. "It's a feature, not a bug." I just didn't quote that part. -- nm - David Oct 29, 10:01 1
  - Precisely. It's a feature. Which directly contradicts the President's repeated statemented that you could keep your insurance. - ty97 Oct 29, 10:04
- Yes, this was the point of the CNN piece. -- nm - Inigo Oct 29, 09:56
