Government interference 75 years ago is the primary reason we have this problem today.

Not sure your age but when is the last time you had your cholesterol checked? How are your numbers? Mine weren't so good but I take Crestor now so hopefully the numbers go down. Going for checkups can be a good thing.

Lol. The government cannot even budget ... What makes you think they know whats best for your own health decisions?

It FRUSTRATES me to see government involved with my healthcare . Telling me when I have to pick insurance. Telling me I need it by a certain date.

The GOVERNMENT ruins everything.

If you have to pay full price for every visit and test, you tend to really think about if it's really necessary before you go and get it done.
It's been that way for awhile. It's supposed to be about emergency healthcare not preventative treatment.

Well let's see .....

He had so much "knowledge, experience and concern and care for the America people" he felt free telling them if they liked their healthcare plan they could keep it, we'd be seeing $2500 average per family in our premium savings, we wouldn't pay more per premium than we do our cell phones (for starters). He gathered people to review the data and understand the damages the data showed .... people like Jonathan Gruber?

As Nancy Pelosi was one of the signers I guess we can continue to expect more of the same .... and she'll even allow us to look at future legislation after it's signed!!!

The insurance companies should be the ones to take the majority of the blame since they wrote it.

"So that's your proof? Hahah. Evidently millions think it was needed and are grateful to have it." AND many MORE MILLIONS do LOT like it.

Like the over 6 MILLION who had THEIR polices canceled by O Care and the "new" plans cost a LOT MORE for things they did NOT NEED and would NEVER USE.

But you don't CARE about them.

I'm STILL waiting for my $2,500 a YEAR savings!

And another thing regarding auto insurance... it's priced by risk analysis. Those who are higher risk pay higher premiums. Homeowners/renters and life insurance works that way, too, So should health insurance. Higher risk health insurance buyers should pay higher premiums, accordingly.
"As I already said, you don't have to buy auto insurance to cover liability."

What many of the ignorant on here do NOT know is that some companies have ZERO auto insurance with TENS of THOUSANDS of vehicles on the streets and are SELF insured.

I know, I worked for one.
