Let's put congress in charge of our health care

The mail brought me this letter today from my health insurance company:

Dear Member:

Federal law requires that we annually notify all of our customers, regardless of membership or coverage type, of the Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act, shown below.

Blah blah blah.

Do you realize what a wasted this is? Every year health insurance companies have to spend countless dollars on this worthless mailer because our dimwitted congress put a clause in some worthless bill that requires annual notification. Can't we just take the cost of this mailer and reduce our premiums accordingly?

God help us if Congress ever actually gets control of our health care, the stupid things they would do.

But then we have the insane HIPAA law that is killing hospital patients as staff can't discuss the cases of those they are serving with other staff professionals or leave flag notes for others to discover on later shifts.
