    It’s not a profit…It’s a surplus. That’s great.

    Non-profit hospitals need to earn their exemptions too.

    It is funny when the left attacks a company for having too much market share or for being a monopoly and then make the claim that you can fix it by having a government takeover.

    NC Blue Cross has more customers than any other insurer because they have a service that consumers want. You guys want to replace that with a government monopoly in which the wants and needs of the people will be trumped by political motivations.
