Aetna Is Latest Health Insurer to Quit Obamacare Markets
 [BLOOMBERG] Aetna Inc. will leave the few remaining states where it had been selling Obamacare... aka the Affordable Care Act, an ineptly designed and worse executed piece of legislation designed to bring 17 percent of the U.S. economy under the direct control of the government. The previous iteration, known as Hillarycare, was laughed out of Washington. This stinker was passed on a party-line vote without being read... plans next year, making it the latest health insurer to pull out of the health law as Republicans attack the program as failing and work to dismantle it. While the move is likely to attract outsize political attention, the decision affects just Delaware and Nebraska. The Hartford, Connecticut-based insurer already said last year it would pull out of 11 states, and in the last month announced plans to exit Iowa and Virginia. "At this time have completely exited the exchanges," Aetna said in a statement Wednesday. The insurer will also stop selling non-Obamacare individual plans in Delaware and Nebraska.
