Any surprises here? I guess no, not really.

Re: March for health care!

Good to hear it. Although the thing that pisses me off is that so many companies (like the one I work at) have already put so much time, effort, and money into getting ready for the changes, that if they reverse this bill... All of that is wasted. Completely wasted.

But I guess Tom will come in here and say it was Obama's plan to create or KEEP jobs. :P

Re: March for health care!

The dems planned this all along. Hire a bunch of people to ramp up healthcare, than hire a bunch more to tear it down. Kinda like hiring one crew to dig a hole and another to fill it back in. It's the 2011 dem job bonanza!

Re: March for health care!

Honestly, they should have put in a clause that says, if you dont want the healthcare, then you can opt out. But they only open enrollment every 5 years. And if you dont have insurance or the money to pay for the work being done UP FRONT, you simply dont get the care needed. PERIOD.
Which it then would be very funny when all of these republicans opt out, And then complain about how they cant get a doctor when they get sick because they dont have health insurance. I will laugh.
The people wanted a universal healthcare system, but then bitch when they are told they will have to pay for it. I welcome the universal healthcare for the simple reason that if another recession happens and im out of a job for 2 years or so, i would like to know that if i get a horrible disease, i dont want to go bankrupt trying to pay for it. But like ive said before, with the greedy, self centered people in this country, it will never happen the way it should. Everyone thinking for themself instead of others. im out of this thread and could really give two fucks what any of you really think when it comes to politics. You have all proven this many times that you done give a flying fuck about this countries people as a whole.

This.

The United States of America is the land of opportunity. It is NOT the land of hand outs and receiving that which you do not deserve.

Re: March for health care!

Yay for everyones rates increasing dramatically?

I know my company said they had a rate increase of 50% and that was the lowest quote they could find. My gf now has to pay A LOT more at her job as well for it and she makes less than 30k a year.

I fail to see how this is a good thing? Seems basically like a giant tax increase for all those with jobs to pay for those who have none...basically everything we didn't want.

Re: March for health care!

Supreme Court said it was a tax after we were all told it wouldn't be.

Also, I hear a lot of Minnesota people are getting their insurance plans cancelled because they don't meet "guidelines" anymore? This is after Obama stated that "if you like your current insurance plan, you can keep it PERIOD".

Great stuff, love it...

Re: March for health care!

Can't afford health insurance? Perfect, pay this fine. It really is quite ridiculous; making the poor poorer. The ones who really are hurt by this are the people who are actually trying to make a living and support a family.

Re: March for health care!

Our insurance (family plan) through my wife's work went from $630 a month to $1150. My fathers plan has been canceled due to not meeting guidelines.

We are now on my union's health plan because the union gets 1 more year before price gouging kicks in (most likely due to the unions being a bunch of (D) boot lickers)

Affordable my ass!

Same with the cops in my city...1 more year, then, for example, this one officer is facing a 500% premium increase! How exactly is 5x the price "affordable" for anyone?

I'd bet he has nothing to say since it turned out to not be magical free/cheap health care.
He might pop in to say it was all Romney's plan/fault though
