I feel almost sorry enough for this guy to give him a few bucks, but not quite there yet.
He's the poster child for every conversation that I have ever had with my GOP friends and one family member, when we discuss the ACA. Who takes care of those who are too stupid to take care of themselves?? Do we just let them die, or, in this case, go blind?
Same good Policy I've had for the last 10 or more years. They were forced to add all the coverage and additional fees.
If I ever get pregnant I'll be covered and make history.
We had a great policy for 10 years as well! We only had a $500 deductible, now thanks to our employer we have a $5,000 deductible per person covered, and it didn't have shiite to do with Obamacare.
By the way, for the woman who now has mandated coverage for a pregnancy that she will never have, who is to blame for that, Obamacare or the insurance company who knows damn well that you will never cost them a dime due to pregnancy?
If I had been Luis Lang, I would have to pay $5,000.00 of that $9000.00 bill when before Obamacare I would have to pay only $2,500.00.
Sometimes there are consequences to standing up for one's convictions.
Sad that the Dem controlled Congress foisted this mess on the People in the first place.
Out of necessity I chose to keep mine even at the 93% increase this mess wrought for the same coverage I had.
It's a sad commentary that people are rushing to criticize a man who had the guts to go it alone instead of blindly following the pack.
Yes, he could have bought a policy like the rest of the sheeple. But there is no way he could have predicted his eyes would go bad during at a time when he didn't have coverage.

That's sarcasm right?

I guess not...
Follow the pack, blindly no less? Couldn't foresee the possibility of a major illness?
Look at the guy, he's freaking 49 years old and looks like all the exercise that he gets is clicking the remote!
I know 70 year olds who look younger.
Oh, and what's that in his shirt pocket... Ah yes, a pack of Marlboro freaking menthols (they might even be 100's).
No sane adult with a modicum of intelligence who is approaching 50 years age isn't freaking aware of the fact that somewhere in their body there is something in the process of trying to kill them! And even if it isn't the enemy within, there's always enough stuff trying to get you from the outside! Not having health insurance when you own a $300,000 house have a decent job or business if freaking insane, and it is even more insane when you don't have health insurance out of some freaking misguide political "principle."

Obviously he is at fault for poor lifestyle choices including not carrying AFFORDABLE insurance. (He seems to have more than sufficient resources to pay for it.)
The flip side of that - and one that might be an irritant to him - is that Democrats took away his option to purchase high-deductible coverage.

He's had diabetes/health issues for years yet somehow thought that at 49 it wouldn't get any worse or more expensive. Amazing that you would call responsible forward thinking people "sheeple".
Maybe he bought into the Republican lie that low income people are moochers and free loaders with "free healthcare" and dining on lobster dinners ... and thought that he could join them on the gravy train. Maybe he believed Huckabee's shyster cinnamon and chromium picolinate cure would work.
Moocher wife: “(My husband) should be at the front of the line, because he doesn’t work and because he has medical issues,” Mary Lang said last week. “We call it the Not Fair Health Care Act.”
