As if we didn't learn from the Wall Street bailout and the GM bailout we're ready to bail out insurance companies who are losing money as a result of Obamacare . http://davidstockmanscontracorner.com/here-comes-the-next-bailout-the-obamacare-risk-corridor-subsidy-to-insurers/

who is gaining all this lost money?

The whole system depends on getting healthy younger people to sign up an be paying premiums but not using services. That would offset the cost of older people using more services than the premiums could pay for. Since that, predictably, didn't happen, they're losing money and either have to leave the system or get a bailout. Obama is going to do anything and everything to prop up this massive failure that is his signature piece of legislation. If that means fleecing the taxpayers then so be it.

Taxpayers are already being fleeced with the higher costs of healthcare since the ACA (Obamacare) took effect. Insurance premiums for everybody have gone up. Some have doubled and tripled since ACA took effect. So, it looks like the insurance companies are getting the "lost money". Nope, there are too many non-contributors who are getting their healthcare paid for or get big subsidies which the insurance companies have to pay from that "lost money". The doctors and hospitals don't seem to be the beneficiaries of the "lost money" either. So... good question, where is the "lost money" going?

The money is being eaten up by bureaucratic largesse. It requires some much to implement this whole thing. The money is also being spent on hospital and doctor visits but the reimbursement rate is lower than their costs.

It just disappears and the Treasury prints some more.

Sadly, I think you're serious.

QE doesn't make money disappear. In fact, it does quite the opposite. What do YOU [incorrectly] think QE is??
