That sucks, but there were similar anecdotes trotted out about why we needed Obamacare in the first place. Again your situation doesn't sound like something that wasn't happening prior to the ACA, and I was curious if people had more thorough explanations of how the ACA is the direct cause of the current rise in insurance costs over the cost increases that were occurring prior to the passing of the ACA.
You think the DJIA is an accurate measurement of how the economy is doing?
more specifically...
You think a 4 hour performance of the DJIA is an accurate measurement of the impact government policies/behaviors have on the economy?
I am paying $1458 for 80/20 right now, with vision and dental included.
Under Obamacare (when Cobra runs out) I will be paying $1500/yr more, have a higher out-of-pocket expense per person, and lose vision/dental. Oh, and Medicare tax goes up. I also lose our current doctors from my understanding.
...and yet there are plenty of people on the right who talk about it being free while paying over $1,000/year extra on their own premiums to pay for the uninsured.
I never figured how many them pay something was worse than them paying nothing...
It's not having much impact. Now if you put Bernanke out there and he says "We're going to end the QE program immediately" watch the DJIA drop like a rock. The last few times that it was suggested that the fed would stop tapering, the DJIA dropped very quickly only to recover when he said it was going to continue. yay we love play money!
You know rates are set by insurance companies, not Obamacare? They also change depending on where you live.
Do you know why the republicans have paid for commercials to try to convince younger people not to participate?
Do you actually believe that w/o Obamacare that your health insurance would not go up after cobra run outs? You can't be that stupid.
do i get some kind of rebate since the government is shutdown
i mean i shouldn't have to pay for it
comcast would give me a free month
Hour 14 after the government shutdown.
Food is running scarce. There are bodies in the streets. The survivors are scavenging the remains... I don't know how much longer we can go on like this.........
