Universal Healthcare

I've figured out how Obama's going to provide universal coverage and a phase-in to single payer health insurance. It's brilliant - We are going to possess an 80% stake in AIG. AIG happens to be the largest US insurance company. Insurance companies are balking at the idea of acceptance of pre-existing conditions. Well, when we can force AIG's hand to do our bidding - this will be a forgone conclusion. Obama will mandate universal coverage and AIG will be there to begrudgingly accept(see carrot; stick) these policies at deeply discounted rates to ensure cornering the market. The government takes on the expense of the inherent losses because we are the main shareholder. AIG turns into a non-profit and operates at a loss from here on out. AIG becomes the de facto government operated single payer provider, a "private" corporation much like Fannie or Freddie. Obama feel free to use this if you aren't already.

PS. Go long on AIG.
