[quote=Greatday;10092042]Where did I say it was inexpensive? Answer, contrary to your representation, I did not.
And regardless of my insurance company - insurance is sold state to state. That would be different if the GOP's plan were to pass.
And, my last cancer bout was 6 years ago - and my insurance has not gone up because of the cancer - it has increased but, less than 10%.
And, it is BCBS - Brokered
And, I do not have, nor can ever get Medicare. I guess that bothers you since you seem to have been making an issue of it.
Again though - when / where did I say, as you say I did, that my insurance was "inexpensive"? Or, would you like to retract your assertion?[/QUOTE]
Oh yes! I retract my assertion! Your insurance is expensive just as everyone else's!
Nope, this link is biased. It is written by By Julia A. Seymour
Business & Media Institute. She offers no citations or links to back up her assertions.
For the record, while its not inexpensive, I don't consider $1,000 a month that bad either.
However, I have no idea how much others I paying - I don't generally get that nosey
And therein lies the problem. $1,000 is not a lot to you? THAT is a mortgage/rent payment for some in some parts of the country GD.. $1,000 IS a lot of money a month!

It won't be any cheaper under Obamacare TM. You are only fooling yourself if you think it will be. Also, keep in mind that my policy has far more bells and whistles, of which you have previously criticized me for, that many would want.
So, your premium would, more than likely, be much less

Says you..
Since 1,000 a month comes out to 12K a year which is already known as the average cost for a family of four.. and we already know that that is 22% of the average household income.. the objective of ANY healthcare reform should be and IS to reduce the burden to those families.
Hey.. if you knock out 25% of the overhead BS that goes into PRIVATE insurance companies.. and that can be eliminated with a government option (because they don't have to pay one exec a 14M a year salary and pay out profits and dividends etc.. ) you're already reducing the premiums..
So .. YOu are fooling YOURSELF if you think Obama's plan wouldn't reduce costs.
AND. y ou've also said that insurance should be sold across state lines in order to encourage competition and .. REDUCE premiums. Since the exchange would do just that then right there.. reducing cost.
I'm also noting how many of you posters on the LEFT immediately jumped all over me and the thread as being untruthful -
Yet now when you are finding out that it is THE TRUTH you are suddenly slinking into your holes!
Hey, if this post was talking about me, I just now came back to this website and am looking at this thread. This plan was complete and the Dems knew about it in June, and the Rs just were shy about putting it out in public? Link, please?
I dont see anything about this new R plan in the news online btw.

Obama's plan does not allow insurance to be sold across state lines TM - I thought you knew that?
BTW - how do you feel about, under the Obamacare plan - that t5here is a MANDATE to have insurance - and if you don't, you will be fined 2% (or more) of your income? How do you feel about this - being forced to buy something?

The GOP has not been shy.
The Media just did not want to cover it.
And, there are News Articles out there - I have already provided some earlier.
The Dems have known about these two bills - new about the GOP news conferences announcing them (I provided links) - the DEMS are dening there is such a bill - the Dems are lying.
