Private Property Rights And
This Coming Election
NH has an insurance company called the Joint
Underwriters Association (JUA) that insures many of its
practitioners and hospitals. In 2008, Senator Hassan and
Governor Lynch attempted to “balance” NH’s budget by stealing $110
million from the JUA’s reserve fund. This fund was created to
compensate our State’s citizens if they were injured by malpractice,
but it was extremely over funded. Every penny in this fund was paid
by the hospitals and practitioners who purchased policies and every
policy sold promised to return any excess reserves to these
policyholders.
A legal battle ensued and Sen. Hassan and her
cronies lost repeatedly in Superior Court, the NH Supreme Court and
again in front of JLCAR when they attempted to rewrite the JUA rules
in yet another effort to steal this money.
Why did they lose?
Because each court ruled the funds were private property. Private
property held in a public institution, just like your IRA or your
savings account. Why does this matter to you, many of whom don’t
work in healthcare? Because Maggie Hassan is still saying she
believes in taking this money, despite losing repeatedly in court.
Politicians who support the theft of private property for the
“public good” have no business holding public office. Without
private property rights, we are not free Americans. Ovide
Lamontagne respects the private property rights of New Hampshire’s
citizens and deserves our vote next week.
