canear, I will bet money that you are either unemployed, a single mother or just a lazy, unmotivated human being who wants his/her rent paid for by Obama, his/her groceries provided by Obama, car payment taken care of by Obama (if you even have one) and in general just don't have the initiative to get out and take care of yourself or your family! If anyone with an ounce of intelligence looks at a single payer system you would realize that you can't add 50 million people to the medical system and expect to be able to take care of everyone, especially when you won't have that many doctors wanting to get into the practice anymore. It is impossible to provide all things to everyone! If you don't have the motivation to get a good education and subsequently a good job you deserve to stand in some long line awaiting a government handout. I am so sick and tired of unmotivated and ignorant people whinning and complaining about what they don't have! Get your lazy butts out there and do something about it! Quit waiting for your "messiah" to save your lazy butt! Whewwwww!

89.3 KPCC | Taxing 'Cadillac' health plans has widespread effects

On average, a policy costs a worker and his employer $13,000 a year for a family of four. Those Goldman Sachs plans cost about $40,000 to cover a family.
KevK - who said anything about having a family plan. I didn't.

I have been "really" sick - twice. One bill exceeded 100K.

Nothing my physicans ordered was denied coverage for.

Had a private room. etc. The plan I have even covered personal grooming while hospitalized

Don't tell me you don't believe me. Tell her you don't believe her. Tell them you don't believe them:

In the study, more than a quarter (27 percent) of individuals with genetic conditions and serious medical conditions reported having been denied health insurance or offered it at a prohibitive rate. Further, those with

I will point out that this was before HIPPA and things may be better now, I don't know. Somehow I doubt it.
