This is political and just another sign obamacare is a disaster.

The exchanges were delayed, the medicaid bribe was a failure and politcal fallout is abudant.

april had aetna pull out of cali, recently we saw united health pull out of cali, the list goes on and on and on .

for those of you who are drolling about a single payer.I sugest you go pick up your dog toto and start heading to speak with the wizard of oz.

I spoke with the Wizard a couple of days ago. He says everything is coming along nicely.

You rage against socialism in any form, yet you have no problem accepting Medicare, which has often been defined by right-wingers as a mandated program that is socialistic in nature. That was one of the chief criticisms of Medicare when it was initially enacted. Medicare would lead to socialism, which would lead to communism, blah, blah, blah. While I don't believe this is true, there are many who do. Hence, my sarcastic comment about the "terrible socialist entitlement program."

I've explained the reasons behind my support of single payer so many times on this forum that I fear boring the general populace with yet another explanation. I'm so sorry if you missed those posts of mine. <sarcasm>

Please be aware that you are not Hemmingway and for most mortals, satire, sarcasm and irony do not translate well from the spoken word to the written word.

Yes, you made excuses for a Single Payer system but you've not ever explained why it is good for America to adopt a proven, failed system.  Much less why you demand such of a failed system.
