Or you could find out you have a disease that is easily treatable now but may lead to a terminal condition in five years. I know multiple people with cancer before they were thirty. Not to mention diabetes or high blood pressure. Your call - it's only your life

And at least on your first appointment with them, they can do a history with you and run some bloodwork to find out some basic stuff about your health(cholesterol levels, vit D levels, etc, etc).
All good points.

frick you Republicans for unanimously blocking the public option. Why do you insist on being insurance company's bitch and pay the insanely high premium out the arse every month?
Yeah because only gov't can save us and fix the problem. It's our only option.

This. You always hear of stories of people feeling like they were just totally ok...doctor runs some labwork, something looks weird...they were in beginning stages of some kind of cancer.
Had a pediatric patient. 7-8 years old. She wore glasses and fell and broke her glasses. So her mother had to take her in for another eye exam to get new glasses. Eye doctor saw something weird during his exam....she actually ended up having beginning stages of a brain tumor(which they were able to successfully remove). Had she not broken her glasses, it might have gotten too big to operate on once she started having symptoms.
Breaking her glasses ended up saving her life.

part of the reason this thing is an utter failure. Say your average shithead that claims 9, so basically withholds nothing all year. if said shithead owes and doesn't want to pay the penalty, you have no means of collecting. So a large % of the people that are supposed to help fund this thing aren't.

Maybe yes, maybe no. We will find out.

Why not just get insurance?
Why not dump this terrible legislation that has forced people to buy something they didn't want. This was supposed to lower rates but it failed miserably.

front or we will get you on the back-end, about time insured stop subsidizing the care of the uninsured
Possibly one of the dumbest things I've read on here. A healthy 29 year old is not the problem when it comes to subsidizing health care. The majority of the people who leech off the tax payers are either 1) undocumented residents 2) don't make enough money to be required to buy health care and get free subsidized care and/or 3) don't have insurance and don't pay any taxes anyway.

you can have one catasrophic event while having health insurance these days and still need to declare. It use to be afforable and now it's simply not for some. If I didnt have a family, I would never have it.
Crazy how the government knew it would be too expensive for some. There is special place in hell for them.

Not only did my rate go up but my deductible nearly doubled.
Affordable Health Care it is not.

You should get a hospitalization policy at the very minimum.
One accident and you could be ruined financially.

Buy health insurance, you fricking deadbeats. Don't expect the taxpayers to bail you or your family out if/when you have a medical emergency.

This line of thinking means you don't have shite to your name. If you are injured in any kind of accident and pile up some serious medical bills sure, you will be treated but you will forfeit almost everything you have to pay for it. Property, wages, whatever until you declare bankruptcy and start over. Sweet risk dude....

Yeah, weird how they were fine, went to the doctor, then only lived a few more months after that.
