No, he wasn't. He was paying the appropriate premium for the risk he brought to the table. He was also saving the rest of us money. He was paying $200 a month into the system and taking nothing out.

You are simply wrong my friend....he was paying the appropriate premium for the risk his policy covered....which wasn't in any way, shape, form or fashion the appropriate amount of risk. He had a shitty policy which is actually worse than not having any policy at all for those of us with a policy that actually covers our risks because the provider is forced to pass on the costs of collecting to those of us who will pay because the person with the shitty policy thought he was covered and ain't in a position to pay.


Anyone who has experienced a large increase in their premiums is in one of two groups...they either had shitty insurance and were costing the rest of us dearly....or they are dealing with a crooked insurance company who is raising rates without any regard to increased risks....any other reason that yall can conjur up is merely wrong....

My family and I have been paying between $10 and 18K a year for our health insurance for years. We have not seen a rate hike in 4 years...prior to that we saw a rate hike EVERY year....some years worse than others...and the reason our rates have not gone up, like MOST americans...is because we had decent insurance all that time that covered our risks appropriately and now we aren't as likely to have to subsidize the costs of the uninsured and the under insured....
