I feel your pain. I second ehealthinsurance.com. It is a good site, not a scam.

I did not think you would have an answer. You do understand we are not paying for a war, right?? We are just running up the national debt.

I was paying $1250 a month for Cobra (luckily I had the grant) and now I pay $36 a month for full HMO.

How and what company????

Well, thank you very much. But isn't it just common sense though? I mean, we can spend money to support LIFE or DEATH and DESTRUCTION. I opt for life.

Yes, and someone is going to have to pay for it. It's not free money.

How is it I don't have an answer? Why, let's charge health care too!

Also got to stop with all these welfare programs...throwing good money into a bottomless pit. It's obvious these handouts aren't keeping these people on their side of town anyway.

How 'bout we stay on topic, stop turning every thread into a political statement and provide the OP with some assistance on costs of health insurance, shall we?

My husband is applying for a job where the insurance is expensive and has a 10,000 deductible per family, per year. Needless to say that if he gets that job we will still look for insurance elsewhere.

I don't understand policies like this, if we had that kind of money we wouldn't have to worry.

You are right again my friend. It is common sense. But I dare you to show me some common sense in our society.................. Especially with this(not mine) government.
