I am very sorry I went off on that tirade but somehow these people have to understand just how that single payer crap will work and I think I have enough time on Medicare to know how it will work. I just couldn't take the crap any longer. Sorry.
It happens.
I'm interested though on forum members ideas on making it mandatory to purchase health insurance and then penalizing them if they don't.
If this passes with a public option then it must be mandatory in order to work.
I have stated before, that if someone is able to self-insure then certificates should be available to show that they are, in effect, insured, eliminating that 'freedom of choice' concern.
Bankruptsy laws should be changed so any potential debts from this cannot be wiped out......along with a lot of other debts, but that's a different subject.
I have health insurance. I have also been without health insurance.
This stuff of others thinking they can tell me how I am to live my life. How I must do thing, Making choices for me it getting old as heck. Why call it my life? When someone else is controling it
Yes people should be able to get insurance with a pre existing health problem but other then that this stuff of telling someone they must have something. has got to stop
What are people going to tell us we must have and do next?
So now you have been black listed by the insurance industry, they all have ganged up to say
psss, dont give TransMommy insurance...
You Are being ridiculous on purpose to make some point. What I don't know. You have your head in the sand if you do not realize that a large group has been pushed out of insurance with pre existing conditions and prices that pretty much eqaul a second mortgage payment. How many middle income working families you know can pay two mortgages or two rents?
So while I haven't specifically been singled out by name I am in the group that had been shut out. As a resultbif I ddo need emergent care I will get it and most likely you all will be paying for it because I do not have rhe means to pay the ridiculously high cost of treatment. Meanwhile if an affordable option was available and pre existing condition clauses removed I could contribute to my own care through premiums
why should it be??? so you want to MAKE IT MANDATORY that I BUY an INSURANCE THAT I CAN'T AFFORD????? does that even make sense????
INSURANCE is not HEALTH CARE....and that seems to be what Washington DC and the people of america have chose to forget that.
these new bills do NOTHING to lower the cost of health CARE, all they do is worry about INSURANCE, which is NOT THE CARE.
years ago there was no health insurance,,there was a thing called HOSPITALIZATION, which FULLY COVERED MAJOR PROBLEMS.............if you had the sniffles and went to the doctor you paid the BILL for the SERVICE RENDERED....TODAY people think and insurance company should pay for their doctors visit...what ever happened to the individual paying for the service/product that he received?????????????
will any of these current bills lower the overall cost of HEALTH CARE????.. NO
all these current bills, to include to ones that include the "government option" will only COST AMERICANS MORE MONEY
washington is screwed-up and will never get things right.....they have some GOOD IDEAS, but always implement BAD PLANS.....
