The insurance companies are doing what they are supposed to, they are making a profit for their share holders within legal constraints provided by law. The Democrats decided to villanize the insurance companies as a distraction. There are more fair and honest people in the insurance business than in Congress. The Democrats need to look for real solutions instead of someone to blame.
Insurance companies are making a profit at the expense of human lives in too many cases. The Democrats are looking at solutions. Tell me what reform ideas Bush and the Republicans have put on the table in the last few years he was in power. You can't, can you? That's because they didn't produce an idea until a public option was tossed around. While not perfect, at least the Democrats are trying to reform health care; Republicans are just reacting to their ideas.
Personally, I don't care for either party. They all lie and only care about staying in office.
