Garbage in=raw sewage out-Exchanges Will Raise U.S. Health-Care Costs
Exchanges Will Raise U.S. Health-Care Costs - Bloomberg:"The health exchanges won’t resemble any other marketplace.
Over time, rather than encourage insurance providers to offer ever more attractive and affordable policies, the exchanges are poised to push up the cost not only of insurance but also of health care itself.
That means, if the history of U.S. health-care policy is any guide, the exchanges’ very “success” will have the effect of limiting access to care for the 30 million people who are estimated to remain uninsured.
Why are things set to go so badly?
Because the architects of the health-care exchanges have relied on three crucial assumptions, all of which are probably wrong.

Mainstream Media as Iran’s PR Flacks
Hassan Rouhani | Benjamin Netanyahu | Mainstream Media Bias:"One of the problems with President Hassan Rouhani’s charm offensive is that he has a record.
It’s a record that shows that he excuses the death penalty for protesters, defends Iran for its sponsorship of terror and boasts that he duped the West ten years ago.
All of this is a matter of public record. And one doesn’t need to read Barry Rubin or Michael Ledeen or Reuel Marc Gerecht to get all this. If you read about him in the New York Times prior to May 2013, the image that emerged of Hassan Rouhani is one of the ultimate regime insider, not a reformer by any stretch.
So how does Rouhani become a “moderate?”
Probably by one of the great PR campaigns.
Unfortunately it isn’t one that Iran paid for; rather it is one that is being run in America’s mainstream media."

Americans breath a sigh of relief, Obama does not ski-North Korean ski resort scheduled to open this week
PHOTOS: North Korean ski resort scheduled to open this week - The Oakland Press Media Center: "MASIK PASS, North Korea (AP) North Korea’s latest megaproject, the Masik Pass ski resort is intended to show that North Korea is as civilized and culturally advanced as any other country.The complex of ski runs, resort chalets and sleigh rides will formally open Thursday, though the main hotels appeared to be little more than shells late last month, while potholes filled the access roads and foundations were still being dug for secondary buildings.
By the estimate of North Korean ski official, Kim Tae Yong, there are only about 5,500 North Korean skiers in the country of 24 million — a skiing population of 0.02 percent.
Even so, Yong displays no doubt that what his country really needs right now is a multimillion-dollar ski resort in the secluded depths of North Korea’s east coast and bristles at the suggestion that Masik will be a playground for the nation’s elite.
This, he says, is his country at work.
Proof of the great love of the great leader."
