For Jonathan Bernstein, that suggests something important about the way she might govern.Don't Even Think About a Public Option in the U.S.As Aetna's exit from Obamacare's insurance marketplaces continues to generate drama, some are calling for a "public option" -- a government-run insurer that would compete with private companies. Megan McArdle isn't buying it, and she's got the wonkish details to back her up.Probably Not Quite The Reaction They WantedMatt Levine on Goldman Sachs branding its retail banking operation "Marcus":Can you imagine if that works? If Goldman Sachs could cure years of accumulated distrust with a hipster-y name for its online retail bank? "You know," young people will say, "back when I associated Goldman Sachs with the last names of two guys, I thought it was a shadowy monstrosity that made money by cheating and gambling and that probably caused the financial crisis. But now that I associate it with the first name of just one guy, I realize how sweet and earnest it actually is, and I've opened a savings account."Ritholtz's ReadsThe upside of losing half your money (Motley Fool)How to survive a melt-up (Wealth of Common Sense)Dividends eat up bigger slice of company profits (WSJ)(Read Barry Ritholtz's full daily news roundup.)Bloomberg GadflyBursting fintech's bubbleBreaking Vince McMahon's power grip on WWEDeutsche Bank's fed-up whistle-blower deserves a hearing(Read more from BV's sister site for fast business commentary.)For more information, email [email-masked] media inquiries, contact Jill Watanabe at +1-212-617-1610 or [email-masked] received this message because you signed up for Bloomberg View newsletters.bloomberg.com/view | 731 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY 10022 | Contact Us | Unsubscribe <a href="http://link.mail.bloombergview.com/click/7429175.18619/aHR0cDovL3d3dy5tYWlsLmJsb29tYmVyZ3ZpZXcuY29tIg/55086a4c3b35d051538c37ccB346c9e10><img src="http://link.mail.bloombergview.com/img/55086a4c3b35d051538c37cc4f8dz.ed7/d16c10d0.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
