To the good people of Colorado, I offer a warning and a confession.
First, the warning: As Colorado lawmakers consider the “Colorado Option” public health plan in the coming months, the insurance industry and its front groups will besiege Coloradans with a tidal wave of propaganda. You see, the Colorado Option would help the people of Colorado save on medical bills, but the private insurers would lose massive profits if it came to pass. So, the insurance companies will dump an unholy amount of cash in the state to wage a disinformation campaign in an attempt to turn people against the idea.
