Aetna to force 600,000 to lose health insurance in order to up their profits

This should provide more fuel for a robust public option that covers everybody. But it likely won't. At the very least, the health care reform legislation should be amended so that it goes into effect immediately, rather than in four years - that way this kind of abuse can be stopped now. That is, provided that Lieberman, Bayh, Nelson, Snowe, Landrieu, Baucus, the Blue Dogs, and lady who lives on the floor below me don't complain. (She gets very cranky when she doesn't get her way.)
