Does the finance industry drive this? Is every SPV/LLC a new biz?

What does this data actually say, if anything?

Super interesting and not at all what was expected.

It will be called socialism, but if the market is not furthering the interests of the constituents, it makes sense.

Hold on. He seems to suggest creating high risk pools, and then supplementing those folks. He sorta argues it will be cheaper for healthy folks in the low risk pools.

But he is taking their money to supplement the high risk pools anyway!!!

Pooled risks is the ONLY way insurance works.

The D’s have cornered the GOP into working on healthcare care.

Revoking the ACA is very unpopular.

They’ve been trying to blow up the ACA for over a decade, yet they don’t have viable plan to replace it.

They don’t have anything to make it better because they don’t want to make it better.

What they want is the ACA gone and everyone at the mercy of private insurance again.

Aside from the political motivations, it is expensive to deploy national guardsmen.
An investment in policing and social services is much more lasting.
A GOP rep trying to get leverage on the Federal dime.

At first Bessent almost infers the swap was closed out. Then uses the future tense..."the gov't is going to make money".

The only way the U.S. is paid back is if (when) the U.S. forces the IMF (US is largest shareholder) to lend an equal sum to cover the swap and close it out.

There is a narrow path that leads to a discrete vote on healthcare.

The GOP will need to work very hard to avert that.

D challenge is to force that vote.

It is amazing that a person in their mid-70’s ‘re-energized’ the GOP, while the mid-70’s people are weakening the Democratic party.

And what if their staff? Where the hell are they?

does that refer to ‘w5 or ‘26 earnings. Looks like 2025 since 2024 is in grey.

The only vote will be to repeal the entire law. And John McCain is not around.
