You're a damn millennial and always will be. The boomer ship sailed years ago. I'm not even a boomer and I'm 52.

Well you get fooled by obvious trolls like a boomer, so I hope you can understand why you might be confused for one.

In this thread people are bitching about having an extra *OPTION*.

This is a great example of how stupid the left has become.

Curious as to how it will be determined how much $ an HRA will provide an employee to buy insurance? Will this be based on gross income, or the same for all?

Be thankful bro
So are you saying that as a scare tactic to get people to side with your view of forcing everyone to pay for something that many won't need or use during their prime? I haven't been sick since high school and no need for bullshite doctors. Why must I be forced to pay even more for gay insurance when all I'm doing is throwing my money down the drain, that I could be using for more important things like hookers and blow?

Health insurance is the biggest scam and it is the reason why medical prices are so ridiculous.

Nobody is bitching.

Are you that obsessed with your narrative that you can’t actually read?

Reality isn’t a scare tactic.

So you don't understand how insurance operates?




neither do you apparently

The ACA destroyed the last vestiges remaining of our "insurance" system.

What we have now is compulsory health care cost sharing, that is a far cry from insurance. The fact you can not join until a loss is apparent and even realized makes a bigger joke out of calling it insurance.

Well the reality of it is that I've already wasted thousands of dollars for something that I have not used. Plus if I go for a checkup, I still usually have to pay even if a small amount. And for what? For the Dr to tell me I'm in good health while giving me some free drugs to try out? frick that. I work hard for my money and I would rather choose where and how I spend it. I would rather use that money to save up and invest for my future. Also I don't think I should be taxed up the ying yang for some welfarians to get free healthcare when I don't even have it. It is bad enough seeing these obese EBT'ers buying hordes of junk food at the gas station. Why must we continue to support these fcckers?

All I want is for insurance to cover emergencies - trauma, broken bones, cancer, disease. I'd be happy with preventive care and testing to be market based and out of pocket ; it might actually be worth a shite if competition existed.

We are still a long way off from free market healthcare services. The government is so intertwined it isn’t funny.

This is what insurance is supposed to be... Cover big shite. Everything else should be out of pocket.


Car insurance doesn't cover wiper blades, tires, or lighted truck nuts.

This, wasn't 2 long ago, when Auto insurance was similar. There was no competition, you had few choices and they stuck it up your arse.

Once it opened up, it became affordable for all.

Well, it is apparent that certain people in this thread believe that choice is a bad thing.

Consider yourself fortunate

And that doesn't remove the fact that you can become I'll any time.

Because some day you will be old and no amount of money you saved will cover your medical expenses.
