It appears you didn't read the editorial - regarding record payrolls/bonuses for CEOs. And in CT who are being richly rewarded for all the money they are making for shareholders from profits. And in CT, it's the State Insurance Dept., Attorney General, and elected legislators who are in the driver's seat when it comes to regulations and setting health insurance rates.
