Wendall Potter in his new position at the Center for Media and Democracy will hopefully provide insights into the inner workings of his former employer, health insurance company CIGNA corporation. Bill Moyers has a series of interviews scheduled where Wendall Potter lays out his case.
As a consumer, if predictions come true that premiums double in the next ten years if we leave the current system in place, (?$30,000 a year? for a family plan), and my wages increase about 15%, rationing and lack of coverage are guaranteed, including the predictions of reducing treatment for old people….except it would be done privately by companies like BC/BS, by a faceless employee.

Update: A national average is about 12,800, so a doubling would be less at $25,600/year.
