Did Aq just get a point?

Does this count?

I thought the same thing when I saw the headline. He probably won’t get a point since his prediction was “a tech company will buy a health related company” or something to that effect, but since the spirit of his prediction was “tech and health closely knit together” he definitely deserves partial points.

NYTimes’ article says nobody knows what shape the venture will take, not even those involved. Either way I’m excited about this news. I think we need more than an Amazon or Ebay for healthcare plans, so let’s hope it turns into more than that.

No, because the three companies are creating a healthcare provider to provide healthcare for the employees of the three companies. They’re not creating a consumer-facing provider for any American to sign up to.
