creating a "legal mandate" forcing private insurers(companies) to provide a product, for free, with no co-pay and effectively forcing institutions(who may be self-insurers and may be Catholic or otherwise) who pay for or sponsor the service(insurance) to provide something which may contradict their religious or moral teaching and belief is a usurpation of the Constitution....and it's just the beginning



yes Spence...the insurers are targets

“The private market is in a death spiral,” Sebelius said

Later on Tuesday, in an address to the American Cancer Society’s Cancer Action Network, Sebelius discussed the “broken” health insurance system that Obamacare aims to fix.

Sebelius said that the next “important step” in implementing the president's health care plan is to establish “essential health benefits”--the basic package of coverage that the federal government will order all health insurance plans to cover.

The Affordable Care Act outlines 10 areas of basic coverage, including preventive services, prescription drugs, pediatric care and hospital services. The "preventive services" area is the one under which the administration has already ordered that all health insurance plans must cover sterilizations and all FDA-approved contraceptives, including those that induce abortions, without charging any fees or co-pay to insured workers and their dependents.
