As long as there are for-profit insurance companies you do NOT want to allow them to sell across state borders. Because all it would take is for one state to grant concessions to the insurance industry and then they would all flock to that state and set-up business there and then use those rules to dictate the price and level of service given to people in the other states. That's what happened with the credit card industry. Why do you think virtually all credit card companies issue their cards from South Dakota. Because they allow them to charge up to 29% interest if they wanted to.

Listening to some of the quotes, especially on foreign policy, torture,
etc. from the last debate, could cause one to throw up.

There has never been a stupider, more belligerent and ignorant group of clowns as these.

As for kasich, he took the money from Obamacare to offer Medicaid to the poor in his state, but he didn't create exchanges, and he's proud of that. So, he's sucking money out of Obamacare because tne Supremes allowed for that to happen. He also says premiums went up. Of course they'll go up when there is no competition in your state. Premiums are fine in NY, CT, and other states that have strong exchanges with many insurance companies competing.

Kasich was Gingrich's attack dog. He's still a dog.

The one thing Trump said hat is 100% good and accurate is that we do not have open borders between states with insurance companies, so they can compete against each other everywhere. The insurance lobby is too strong for that to happen. If that happend, insurance premiums would drop 50% instantly.
