Gambling On Aetna's IOUs
CNBC is drooling at the prospect

Who knew health care providers and
    their patients stood to lose
Because there's been no market for
    insurer IOUs?
And Aetna actuaries claim
    they can't afford to pay
Without affecting profits and the
    executive buffet?

So, securitize their IOUs.
    Who knows how much they'll bring?
Hedge funds could make millions
    while Aetna populates Sing Sing.
Sure, it might be a gamble,
    but that's what Aetna's doing:
Betting we won't wise up to a
    really royal screwing.
