Because they have yet to pay a premium for service, and have not received an insurance card yet went to a hospital fully expecting to have the insurance they basically browsed the web for.

Partly true. If you really had insurance, it is likely that the insurance plan has negotiated a price less than the $500 and yes, she would have had to pay it because of the deductible but I would bet it would be a good bit less than $500



Shhh, people still think there are no price controls and hospitals can just charge whatever they want.

More from Kate Holly, the freelance yoga instructor...

From the original article.. the comments below...

Did you vote for Obama? Twice? Then congratulations, because you *did* build this!

This Robert Stacy McCain quote sums it up: "If you volunteer to be somebody's doormat, you forfeit the right to complain about the footprints on your back."

I would ask to remain anonymous, too, if my plan was to fund my family's healthcare by sponging off of my tax-paying neighbors. I truly hope the kid stays healthy, but I have not one drop of sympathy for the deadbeat mom.

A working mom is a "deadbeat"? Wingnuts reach a new low.

Let's see... she hasn't bothered to get covered in twelve years of adulthood. Never the less, she and hubby decided to bring a newborn into the world instead of protecting against pregnancy. She doesn't work, and though her husband's insurance will cover them they're not willing to make the economic choices that allow them to pay for her coverage - available though it is. (And probably at a much lower rate than most of us individual buyers face).
If there' a wingnut here it's you, SG. Common sense (remember that?) dictates that one prioritize in adulthood lest your neighbors have to carry your load. If that sounds painfully familiar, perhaps you're another deadbeat and could help out by carrying your own weight instead of foisting it upon your fellows.

Oh wow, schadenfreude. The chickens are headed home to roost young liberals. If only 50% of the population had warned you that ACA was going to be trouble. Did the Portland liberals really believe that they were going to be on the receiving end of this redistribution?! The gov already has your votes, they don't need to buy anything from you. Now it will be interesting to see how many of these young idealists have their lives ruined by liberalism, and STILL continue to blindly follow. My guess.... 99%.

Gee,,,, make the ultimate sacrifice and give the kid up for adoption? (Too barbaric) Get a real job? (Too confining- Nancy told me I was now free to be an artiste') Give up the Volvo with the $535 monthly payment? Move to a less expensive place? Learn to live within their means? Gee, adulthood is full of tough choices.

Well she hasn't given up on others paying for her health care per her comment, ""I guess I'm hoping that I will find out there's a way around this," she said, "but I don't know yet."

Ha! Obamacare was great when she though someone was going to pay her bills, but now that she found out she's going to be paying the tab for other people, it's suddenly not good.

As I have said on numerous occasions, which obviously needs to be said again and again and again: TANSTAAFL, stupid

Wake up darling, you were lied to. Now get a real job to pay for your Obamacare

Freelance Yoga instructor... Husband works for a Non-Profit... Isn't feeling good about yourself enough? She's prayed to the Obama Altar looking for answers to her self imposed plight and found her Messiah isn't all he seemed. Do us all a favor. Stop breeding until you can pay for your healthcare. You wanted it.

Exactly what I said... Its nice seeing where people place their priorities and then get uppity when what they thought would be free/cheap isn't.

frick her.. Get a fricking extra job and buy insurance through your husbands employer. Btw, so do I take it that the child doesn't have coverage either

That would equate Obamacare to being "ahead of it's time".

The Obamacare rollout is more akin to a horse drawn carriage with 3 wheels missing, being dragged on the interstate.



Well said

And Obama doesn't care. He's vacationing in Hawaii on the tax payers dime for 17 days. Beaches, golf, snorkeling, fine restaurants...must be nice. Yet, he will "never rest" until utopia is achieved. <--to you Obama.

Useful idiots would have been more appropriate. But they're getting what they wished for, progressivism. Enjoy the total meltdown fools.

A very close relative of mine who works on the Hill was forced onto the Obama Care Exchange in DC. This person lives in VA., but Obama wanted the DC exchange used because it handled fewer people.

This person enrolled in December and has still not received proof of Insurance.

BTW all Hill Staffers with the exception of Dem Leadership Staff were forced on to Obama Care, and were not allowed to purchase anything less than a "Gold Plan".
