Only a buffoon would support the ACA. It is absolutely indefensible.
If a buffoon likes the ACA cause it no longer allows insurance companies to collect from you for years and then boot you out when you actually get sick than I am one BIG ****ING Buffoon! If a buffoon likes the ACA cause if you get sick and lose your job you can't be turned down then I am one big ****ing Buffoon. Of course there are things you cited that I don't like but the 2 things I cite protect me and my family and are truly insurance. I sir am a big ****ing Buffoon and have been called much worse.

You're a habitual appeaser. They "throw you a crumb and you kill 100 people for the crumb" type mentality.

You won't get it. You never will. The ACA wouldn't exist without the constantly cowed such as yourself.

Congrats. You're "guaranteed" to not lose everything. Even though Hospitals are shutting down and merging and doctors are retiring at a record pace.

F.uck it. Just as long as they "guarantee" I won't go broke.

It's funny people can defend this crippling disaster known as Obamacare.

A family member last year spent 9 days in the hospital for merely hpb. One of the highest rated hospitals in the state makes numerous mistakes for hbp.

Just a stroke of bad luck, I guess. I'm sure others have had wonderbra experiences with aca and health care in general. If they're not subsidized I'd love to hear their stories.

Or crickets chirping. Either/Or.

Had someone close to me get cancer last year. Paid about a grand out of pocket and still has health insurance. Treatment was basically 9 months including surgery/chemo/radiation. All on Unsubsidized policy.

That's wonderful.

I would just like for you to clarify that "guaranteed renewable" and "affordable care act" don't have to co-exist.

You see the latter is all about expanding the welfare state. You know about the debt. All of the guaranteed health coverage your heart desires isn't going to save you from less access and longer lines. It's coming.

Specialists are retiring at a rate that is unprecedented. Common sense would tell you that the "working" man's standard of care is going to be lowered. If the government is going to continue to use subsidies then it's natural that cash-strapped hospitals will choose those who are fully subsidized.

Oh well. It's all about screwing the flyover states. You know...rural folks.

Gotta get them all in cities. For some odd reason.

Just keep appeasing to the socialists, jms. We'll all be extinct soon enough. But at least you'll be right in the short term.

And when it doesn't happen "long term" we will all forget these posts were never written. Can't be wrong if you kick the decision point far enough down the road. The process was broke long before ACA at least now we are truly insured for catastrophic occurrences. See ya in the selections thread coach.

You're a better handicapper no need to subtly brag.


I think that's cowardice which is why I used cowed.

Keep shilling for more big gov.

Career military or federal employee are the best options for our youth.

Can't be repealed fast enough.

Yeah, this insurance stuff....just horrible.
I mean, just my hospital bill for end of may was over 16k. Surgeon, anesthesia, etc will be separate.
After the lousy united health care payment and contractual adjustment, i have to pay $553 total. 1/32nd of the bill.
Those bastards.

For the condescending:
My monthly insurance went from $625/mo for my family to over $1100/mo with a $10,000 deductible having no claims at all!

Having to change over to a policy now costing $780 a month and I swear the only difference is slimming down the hospital/physicians in the network.
