Aetna announced it would cut its participation in the Affordable Care Act exchanges by two-thirds after the Justice Department blocked its merger with Humana. CEO Mark Bertolini had previously threatened to reduce the company's exchange footprint if the merger was enjoined, leading to accusations of a "quid pro quo" scam. The situation has renewed calls for a single-payer healthcare system as insurance premiums continue to rise for individual citizens.

They predict this model will eventually be used to drain the Social Security system through high Medicare Part D premiums. They advise listeners to check the actual cost of their medications on pharmacy receipts.
