I'm ready to say fuck it and not pay for health insurance and tell them my name is ramon and everything I go in for is an emergency then bail out when I get better.

I give the rant a solid 8/10

I have heard more statements similar to this than I care to count. I understand why too. I believe the "fine/tax" for not having health coverage is around 800.00. You can still go to a hospital if sick or such. Why would one spend 5K annually if basically healthy for insurance when you could just pay the "fine/tax"?

As far as the big FU to anybody who supported Oblunder, Udall, Bennet and such I concur and also say thanks.

As for the rant I am giving it a 9 out of 10.
Context and articulation was good, with a brazen dash of profanity adding tastefully to the delivery.

Yeah, and this is not some mom-and-pop shop either. They have 150+ employees. I forgot to mention, we can choose the cheaper plan they now offer, only about $4k/year more then we pay now, but the coverage is about 1/3rd of the coverage we have now. Now isn't that nice of them to give us a special deal. Fuckers.

This was a very good plan with United Health Care which has been great for us while we had a baby and my wife had surgery among other things...but damn, so much for buying great insurance for our family. We'll now have to get the cheap ass insurance from my employer that doesn't cover shit.

The US Government - making sure hard working Americans take it in the ass.

Not to go along with the crowd, but I give it a........8.5.

Best I have heard in a while, and SO TRUE.

^^ You must be mistaken. Healthcare costs are going to be lower with Obamacare. [/sarcasm]

That's going to become one of the BIG lies...along the lines of, "The check is in the mail."

I'll still respect you in the morning...

I'll only put the tip in...

[hollohas]

Nope, insurance costs won't go down with a repeal. The damage is done. All I can hope for is that they increase pre-tax health care savings to offset some of the out-of-pocket costs.

Just a footnote to this. If you think just because some of us work for the fed that it has been all rosy guess again. Last two years. Pay frozen and my part of the premium has gone up by $140 per month not to mention all the price hikes on the co-pays.

And I still hear some workers tout how great he is.

No kidding. My employer is about as generous as they come, and they're covering 75% of our premiums as well. After another year working here, they'll cover 90% for me, but that only comes from being with the company for so long. Regardless of their generosity, I still have to pay $140.50 per month. That means my actual premiums are $562 per month, up from $96 per month in 2006, when I moved to CO. Granted my insurance company and policy has changed since then, my copays, out of pocket maximums, and the things that I actually remember, are all the same. This is ridiculous.

DAMN!! this free healthcare sure costs alot.

Healthcare is not a right.
