    You just missed the point in another thread by a country fucking mile
    I think there's a HH copypasta for that.

    My doctor was giving me shit about insurance today. I said we really don't want to go there

    70$ cop pay and 60 bucks of pills cash. I think I'm up to 3 or 4 grand a month for insurance thanks to all the fixing that has happened

    He's like you're 62 now and you need it. I said I don't need a cabinet full of drugs like you did to my mom because she was old

    He also told me I am going to have a stroke so I relented to some high blood pressure medicine

    If I disappear you know why

    62? I think you're doing well since you can remember details of a doctor visit from 40 years ago
    That's in dog years. Uncle @RaceBannon is really 469 years old.

    Find me someone that has a good experience dealing with their health insurer

    Mine was awesome until about 2010. But I didn’t get to keep it.
    Mine was also awesome until about 2014 and then the price of it skyrocketed. $70 initially, ditched it at $500 a month, it's now well over $1k a month for the same insurance.

    And you're young

    Mine was a "free" as you could get because my employer paid for it. That went out the window

    All so we could move a few million off of one government program to another and claim victory

    Luckily my employer stepped up to the plate(privately owned company) and gave us great insurance(for now). $20k bill for my daughter's delivery. Paid $150 total.

    Of course, that has effectively locked me into my employer and ended my labor mobility(which I'm sure the president knew when he ponied up for the insurance, smart guy).

    Eh. I think if most owners/executives could do away with healthcare being at all the company's responsibility they would

    I’m still skeptical of her but this is a huge step in the right direction.

    This is why you're my favorite classy communist. You own it
    Agree completely. I disagree with APAG on piles of shit politically, but I respect the fact that he owns his positions, defends them, and doesn't whine like a bitch all the time like most of the other democratic socialists here.

    A lot of them have. @UW_Doog_Bot and I were worth it. There comes a time when it isn't

    I used to have the whole family covered and paid for by the boss. If I had stayed there we'd probably go 50/50 on the cost for me alone

    This is exactly why we should go to Medicare for all. Businesses need to find a way to profit more every year. And one way is to cut benefits from their workers.

    El oh El at Canadians flooding to hospitals in Seattle. Reminds me of Bob's claim that he sits in the ER for hours with a bunch of illegals.
