Federal officials could end up overseeing the new Illinois health insurance marketplace for years to come after lawmakers in Springfield balked again at a full embrace of President Barack Obama's health care law.The Legislature adjourned Friday without sending Gov. Pat Quinn's a bill on a state-run marketplace - a consumer-friendly online shopping site for insurance. Quinn has pushed such a plan for three years without success. Although the state will partner with Washington the first year, the Democratic governor had hoped Illinois could take the reins in 2014 for coverage starting in 2015. That timetable now seems highly unlikely unless lawmakers pass legislation when they convene for the abbreviated veto session this fall. Jim Duffett of the Campaign for Better Health Care, an Illinois group that supports the health care law, predicts that if lawmakers don't approve a state-run marketplace then, there won't be one in Illinois for at least five years.

Even Barack Obama's corrupt Illinois can't get on board for the Soviet style central planning in health care! Here's a story Jay Carney or MSNBC will not be talking about unless they are forced to at gun point.
