Property rights include these entitlements for which you show so much disdain
quote:You serious? So, an individual cannot freely contract with an insurance company? Is that your stance?
you failed to mention that the individual doesn't have this great bargaining power to "freely" contract.

the ones that the corporations do not tolerate a la carte contracts, as you are suggesting.

because the insurance industry, like many industries these days, are little more than cartels who collude to suppress consumer options via right wing policies and crony capitalism.

Nice leap of logic.

Also, you, through your support of the ACA, gave those crony capitalistic insurance companies even more power.
Did you not pay attention to the ACA at all?

I didn't realize the new, giant, government bureaucracy that is handing insurance companies millions in additional profits was the idea of conservatives.

go back and read what i was saying and you were responding to again
quote:

yes, i have been very critical of the ACA on here.
You need to understand that just because conservatives are my enemy, that doesn't make Obama or the Democrats my friend.

You just overruled the SCOTUS, congratulations. Another example of why it is important to understand the issues before speaking (or posting).

The individual may not now, but he certainly did prior to the ACA.

Which democrats, especially ones like Hillary, love.

not really. You had companies A, B and C...all of whom forced you into their terms under their boiler plate contract.

and so do republicans, when it suits them.

You did not answer my question at all. You merely stated that the insurance companies are in collusion, like cartels. That does not prevent a person from going to another health insurance company which offers a plan covering all the types of BC.

You need to understand that just because conservatives are my enemy, that doesn't make Obama or the Democrats my friend.

So when it's your opinion, it's "what's right" and when it's my opinion I'm "lying"
