If the government can nationalise AIG, why cannot it put a break on private assurers, reduce health costs premiums, and oversea universal healthcare

A good question. Herr Bush believes in free markets. Now his version of casion capitalism has failed utterly. With the nationalisation of AIG, it is time to ask why cannot the federal government put a tight leash on assurance companies who charge high premiums for medical assurance but are horribly dishonest in denying policy holders payment on medical expenses, and keep them inline, thereby putting controls on a group of liars and thieves bulking the public of billions us$ a year, for profit. If a Republican administration can nationalise AIG why cannot it rein in the dishonest assurance industry, institute a German style universal healthcare system for US citizens? A good question. But the answer, ain't forthcoming. Think about it!
