    Each State Department of Insurance must approve any rate increases. Why are the States not looking at surpluses when evaluating whether or not they will approve a rate increase?

    1. Doctors should not make 30K for one surgery.
    2. Insurance Companies should not be able to raise rates by 50% in one year.
    3. Attorneys should not be able to collect 40% of a malpractice suit.
    4. Drug companies should not be able to charge $20. for one tablet.
    5. Government take over is not the solution. Common sense regulation to the above is what is needed. Business excesses have taken over the healthcare business. By the way it is a huge business!
