All the ACA did was allow kids to stay on their parents insurance until 26, instead of 21.

Duh.

Geeshus cripes.

So what happens with this requirement:
Does the private insurance company keep the cost the same since they are forced to allow this? or do they raise the cost of the insurance because of this requirement?

Wow. This law passed two years ago? You'd think people would take a little self-initiative, and take advantage of the pages and pages of accurate public information available to learn the facts about it.

Rather than doing a Cannon, and screaming that they have to pay for this, when they do not, etc.

Getting more people to purchase and pay for their own health insurance from a private company, as lobbied for by these very private insurance companies when the ACA was written - what a socialist, despicable thing!

I live in the real world and have seen the increases of health insurance from mandates like the one above. In the fantasy land that you seem to come from everybody gets everything and no one pays for it

Well, perhaps you should have lobbyied the private insurance carriers not to get that mandate in the ACA. They are very upset that they have gained 2.5 million more paying customers .... oh, wait. Never mind.

Not at all. But don't let that affect your desire to make the silly snarky comment.

He's right and you're wrong. But you're always wrong. Doesn't stop you though.

But this particular lobby is OK because it was approved by the King.

Right - that's why I was so angry at Obama for taking single payer off the table, and passing health care reform that mostly, for all the 40 million it newly ensures, is a giveaway to the lobbyists of the insurance companies and PhARMA
