Monica Mehta, Bill Maher Show Government Waste
Investment banker Monica Mehta appeared on Bill Maher's program to discuss massive government waste and the lack of audits for the Pentagon. She highlighted that health insurance stocks have risen 400% since the passage of Obamacare, while the S&P 500 rose only 200%. Mehta also pointed out that insurance companies have been exempt from certain antitrust regulations since 1945, allowing for price collusion.
