    Let me help all of you non-licensed people understand health insurance. Most Americans have Employer-Sonsored Insurance (ESI) which doesn’t work with a catistrophic illness because to remain ELIGIBLE to continue insurance sick employees with Ovarian Cancer must continue to work 30 hours per week, the Eligibility Requirement. These dying bald-headed women can’t work so they are switched to a short-term COBRA for insurance termination.

    Dr. Goodman, Devon Herrick, Robert Moffit and Brian Blase refuse to mention the deadly dangers of ESI because they get huge kickbacks into their Non-Profit and non-taxed organizations to confuse and distract the voting public. None on the so-called big-brainers with their PHDs even notice that Blue Cross Monopoly has 98% Market Share in LA. 96% in AL. It’s nationwide and includes IOWA where the 1st vote will be cast in 4 short months. These PHDs put their own assistants on health insurance that they lose if they get too sick to work. PLUS, the Heritage is selling insurance to their own employees with non-licensed HR girls without full and proper disclosure. Distort, Distract and Confuse with low-rent PROPAGANDA and rake in tax-free Donations from Blue Cross Association.

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
