"If you like your plan, you can keep it."

As flawed as a plan might have been, if it worked for someone, Obama said they could keep it. But people's plans were cancelled. Cancelled because their own plan didn't meet "the requirements", like cover pregnancy - for a single male only plan. Why would a single male need pregnancy coverage? I digress...

Now Obama said that he will allow health plans to be renewed for one more year. Regardless of the circumstance. Regardless of the plan.

At least he admits he made a mistake.

I'm really wanting to hear arguments that the health care companies are to blame for the cancellation of coverage. The last thing any insurance companies want to do is change a person's plan. It costs them time, which includes the most expensive portion, FTEs. If an insurance company can roll over someone's plan with no hand on it, that is the best way for them. It doesn't cost a dime.
