The reason my health care costs have been going through the roof is because those without healthcare (prior), now have free coverage so I have to pay for them. When I started on my own in 2005 I paid about $300 for coverage for myself and my daughter including dental. I could go to a hospital if needed and my copay was $100 and that was it.
Now... I pay around $600 per month and have no dental. My copay to the hospital is $100 and then I have to pay my deductible of $1500 then insurance kicks in at 80/20. Starting January 1st Aetna will no longer cover me and I need to find another plan. From recent reports my healthcare, in PA, will go up at least 30% more. So now i'm close to $800/month and likely a 3K deductible and copays likely $100+.
These are real issues with me... forget Hillary is a corrupt cunt and sells 20% uranium to the Russians to line her own pockets. I'm going to give 10% of my fucking income to healthcare... which I rarely use!
Again, you live in Canada. Why the fuck are you such a cheerleader for that cunt? These are real issues to Americans, not your Canadian issues. This election doesn't effect you, it does me. I hope you can sense my complete frustration right now and also hope you can accept that any man, with any dignity, would never support the witch that wants to continue America's slow destruction.  |
You sir, need therapy.
Why not stop giving power to the fucking Insurance Companies that don't give two fucks about healthcare, they answer to shareholders.
Luckily people in other enlightened Western countries like Canada, UK, France etc have healthcare we all pay through national Insurance/Social Security. Fixed on your income, rich or poor. You don't pay if you are on a very low income or on benefits... and to be honest, no one WANTS to be on benefits, that is just existing. But at least they too can get decent healthcare if needed.
We are HAPPY to pay for this and if you're loaded, sure, take out additional private insurance and get treated away from the rest of us like the cunts that can afford 1st class on flights and look smug as we struggle back to cattle class.
However, the main point is this:
If I have to see my Doc, I don't worry about deductibles, co pays and all the other bullshit you put up with. That includes the Pharmaceutical industry advertising constantly on TV (*warning, may actually cause death).
Fucking Insurance companies are your problem, take away their power, you should have a Federal Health care or at least State by state that actually works, but it really should be Federal, so when you travel within your country and you're in Massachusetts and you're from California, you needn't worry about not being treated etc.
Something needs to be done, I'd LOVE to hear what Donald would do... but as usual, he's full of shit as there is just rhetoric about replacing it. (yawn)
never mind.
