California's Insurance Commissioner released a report (available here) on the state of insurance for Californians. The report is an incredibly biased and opinionated report. It even admits on page 4 that "This is not a neutral presentation of the facts." . . . .I'm not making this up. In the same paragraph it goes on to say that the report is Garamendi's "views and opinions." Wow.
Garamendi doesn't hesitate to beat the drum of class warfare. On page 6 he states that "We are already well on our way to having an inequitable health care system where the wealthy live and prosper while others are priced out." [read: the poor will not live and prosper] Garamendi also resurrects (without providing any clarity) the ominous claim that 45 million Americans lack health insurance coverage on page 6. (I discuss this 45 million number here)
I'm going to dig into the report and see what other misrepresentations it contains.

Good grief. I need a drink.
