bennifits of obama care
 

let's see..... my premiums went from $398 to $475, (not bad) the deductible went from $2500 to $5000 and the price of one of my prescription went from $20 to $85.46

Well, just think of all the time you'll save now that you don't have to worry about how to spend that extra money!

yeah I guess I'll have to forget about that crack cocaine hobby I always wanted :(

And from what I am reading this is actually a success story compared to a lot of people. :thumbsup

Don't pick the lowest plan..they have the highest deductible..to get a $5k deductible you are likely picking the bronze plan.. I do find it funny that it's always people whom are complainers of Obamacare that always have the higher prices.. Go figure.

Good, it is supposed to go up. You are subsidizing people that make less money so they can afford health insurance. My gf thanks you as her subsidy is around $60 a month

Personally mine went up $25, but I've gone from catastrophic to a silver plan

ps: health insurance is going up with or without obamacare

I'm finally insured! Although I haven't tested that yet, doctor appt upcoming.

dear moron: I got as close as I could to what I had... would have been another $250 a month or MORE to get the exact same plan... since I have a job, and earn an income, nothing is given to me . no discounts or anything. try and get a clue :thumbsup

so I guess the 40K+ I pay in taxes a year was just a waste of money :( she's YOUR GF, not MINE, why don't YOU pay her health ins? at what point do I stop being punished for hard work?

because my 40k+ in taxes a year pays for other people's gfs ;)

Anyway, I'd rather have it going to healthcare then tanks

It's better that you pay for it. I am sure they appreciate your generosity. :thumbsup

pretty sure they don't. look how they live in complete garbage. no respect for anything

yes because when the Russians and Chinese take over America or the drug cartels everything will be awesome. you'll be able to make a great living off porn and say ANYTHING you want in public forums :thumbsup

btw if you went from catastrophic to a plan for $25 you're not earning either I guess

Mankind does have that war thing going on pretty much constantly. But it's a good thing to dream about Peace On Earth.,

I thought you hillbillies with your muskets would protect us from such a thing. :1orglaugh

thread got weird(er).

What percent of Americans have signed up so far?

so you're on welfare too?

beasts me... I only think about Obama care when I get stuck with another bill myself

Sounds like a health benefit to me!

So mine went from $525 or so to $1100 with Aetna for me and my 2girls. We've never spent anywhere close to $13K in a year for healthcare. So I decided to switch to another company that is only $629 but the plan won't start until Feb1st, so we actually are uninsured this month for first time.

I will say its a brilliant plan between government and the insurance companies to funnel billions upon billions of public money to private companies in the form of subsidies. To bad I didn't come up with that plan.

Not sure what you mean here

there's another aspect of Obama care that's not being mentioned too much... there is a bailout fund for any insurance agencies that lose money providing the insurance... this will be pretty interesting when that money starts getting passed out... don't you just hate being punished for being dumb enough to work and support your family? :2 cents:

Yes, because every non-hillbilly that doesnt have a musket gets free money from the govt.

$25 more lol. Went from $175 to $200

She received hers for $180-190 (silver plan again with dental) and then gets a $60 subsidy subtracted from that. Earning ~$25k a year, working part time while going to college part time

Sorry you are old and live in a more expensive state ;)

so your thinking is the Russians and the Chinese and the Islamic Republic of Iran don't take over America because they are just pretty cool laid back dudes, unh? go back to smoking weed my man :2 cents:

must be nice :thumbsup

This was the original conservative plan. I'm all for scrapping it, having basic free healthcare for all paid for by a tax and then allowing people to buy additional premium private insurance. You know, like most of the rest of the world

Ah ok the tank comment. Pretty sure tanks just sit in a warehouse these days. Drones ftw

Conservative plan...right.

Just as a reminder. From 2008-2010 democrats/liberals had control. Why didn't they do basic free healthcare. Like the rest of the world.

Rather they put this pile of garbage in place without even reading the law.

interesting concept...

hopefully the tanks will stay in the ware house and not be needed :2 cents:

look Minte, you work for a living... you have no rights

Democracy is a bitch (or lack of)?? But no idea. Get rid of citizens united maybe?

Lie of the Year: 'If you like your health care plan, you can keep it'
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-me...-plan-keep-it/

I'm lucky I guess, I live near a VA hospital and use them now, total cost last year was $260 for me. I can get on my Fiance's medical next year when we get married for nothing because her employer covers everything.

My best friend has had his insurance more than double for himself and his daughter with a large deductible.

As everyone knows, I have been against this since the beginning and I was right till someone proves me wrong. No one has proved me wrong, the only proof anyone has had that it's going to be a good thing was based on lies given out by the Obama Administration.

People who had insurance are paying more and get only two benefits. 1 the caps on total out of pocket expense are much lower than they had been (chance of being bankrupted by medical costs is down quite a bit), and 2 a friend or relative you know is now getting to go to the doctor unlike before...

The ONLY system that ever made sense is single payer basic and private supplemental insurance. This is the first incremental step toward that eventuality. How fast we get there is the real question.

It's good for me. YAY me!

Wait wait wait you are saying you are lucky because you are getting healthcare.... Provided by the government???

Also the VA is one of the biggest clusterfucks there is. Something doesn't make sense here... Anti brand new healthcare program but you like the VA?

30 million of your fellow countrymen that could not get insurance before can now.

The government won't say it, so I will.

THANK YOU for your contribution to the health of your country. Maybe it'll seem worth it in time.
