Title: Dr. Carson Slams Obamacare
Post by: Scout26 on November 27, 2013, 12:05:44 PM
We've had fraud perpetrated upon us and since we cannot go to court to be made whole.  It must be repealed.

I didn't see anything about Dr. Carson at that link. =(

AALRP supported the passage of this BS, and now they are trying to get young people (ya know, the people that make up a large percentage of the "40 or 50 million uninsured") who don't need or want health insurance to sign up and are needed to pay the bills of us old people, are now whoring themselves out to save their idol's legacy.

Obamacare is even bad for us senior citizens who are already on Medicare. Y'all may not know it, but the supplemental plans change every year, and you have to decide every year which plan is likely to be best least harmful to you. I've been with three different companies, and four or five different plans, in the comparatively few years I have officially been an olde pharte.

For next year, my wife and I will get to stay with the same company we are with this year, and the plan hasn't dumped either of our primary physicians. But ... the co-pays have gone up considerably, and the minimum out-of-pocket for the year increased significantly.

A lot of hospitals and medical clinics announce from year to year which Medicare Advantage plans they will accept.  They are almost always the plans that provide better reimbursement or other advantages to the hospitals or clinics.  So in many places, if you want to go to the only hospital or clinic in town or want to keep your current provider, you have a choice of only one or two plans.

Just for the hell of it I went to healthcare.gov. Right now I pay $304 a month for Blue Cross Blue Shield. Similar coverage under Obamacare would be over $700 a month. I didn't even look at the details.

God, I hope I don't have to get into that mess.

The Republicans should hire the best hackers in the country to keep the website inoperable until 2017.

Rough quote. Probably gets worse when you give them real info. The cost could be brought down if my policy didn't need maternity, abortion and contraceptive coverage.

Why do you hate women and widdle babies (and women who also hate widdle babies)?
