  1. I think a young person without insur. is terrible. Especially IF it is affordable for one to do so. It says if you can't depending on income, you will be subsidised.
    I feel if you are dumb enough to go without you deserve the fee tax whatever you want to call it. UNLESS you can prove you can afford a catastrophic situation. Car insurance can be done that way... you have so much in a savings.

    As far as wanting to purchase with out Lifetime or annual limits. The point in that is it supposed to be affordable without HAVING TO SHOP that way.

    #6 I have a family. I have always been taxed, treated as a single person though I don't even live like one. Everyone pays taxes for the greater good, SCHOOLS, FIRE, POLICE, ROADS, ETC. ridiculous argument. Yet people who do decide to breed and create even more of a burden on our society. Get nice sizable tax credits. Believe me I know what it costs to insur. a child, buy school clothes, pay extra for sporting activities that used to be free.
    Basically Josh Insur. is to spread the risk. Police, Fire.etc. Those larger group benefits you were proud you had when you had them. Why should this be any different? What changed your mind?

    My biggest problem with the mandates is For profit will get some, most of those new costumers. Then recieve more subsidies.

    His comments about Pharma well, You watch and see but I see us having to give more tax breaks as incentive to do their research on what we need instead of things like freaking VIAGRA etc. I listened to a thing on MRSA drug companies don't see much profit in more antibiotics that don't seem to work, or make as much money as VIAGRA. etc.
    I have more but I need to go to Taylors program. LOVE you talk to you later.

  2. Im not sure I follow you on what you referring to when you say I used to be proud of something? Maybe you can elaborate on that?

    Also, Viagra treats a legitimate medical issue. Usually the profits from lifestyle drugs such as Viagra subsidize the huge R&D costs for drugs that treat more acute conditions.

    As far as you being taxed as a single person when you have a family, this is one of our greatest modern day injustices. I think this is an example of what happens to people when people are allowed to legislate subjective morality. The difference between you and I is that I apply this thinking to all realms of life including healthcare. Thanks for your thoughts and I look forward to hearing your elaboration and response.

  3. Early on before the election. I believe even before Obama decided to run.
    You asked me what my biggest concerns were.
    Healthcare has been huge for me.
    Your reply was you didn't believe was actually a problem at all. I think you even compared it to Climate change fruad,(At the time was refered to as Global warming).
    The insur. offered by your company, even to your temperary employees at around $100.00 a month, because it was such a large group.
    Maybe proud was the wrong word.
    what has been you experience shopping for Health insur. for your young family ? Washington and Texas. Were you able to take your plan there hao does it work? I don't have a clue, I have always purchased thru employment that may offer 2 or three different options. I am switching to Kaiser in July. Mine has continued to go up both in premiums and out of pocket. Oh and I get taxed on that!
    I am grateful to be able to insur Torrey and Caya, but since we can't legally marry, I have to buy taxes on those benefits. Unlike the my hetero counter parts with 5 and 6 children.
    I need you to elaborate on what you mean by Legislate "subjective" morality, and your thinking on all realms of life including healthcare.
    By Subjective, you mean to leave it open to abolish Roe vs. Wade ? That if I recall correctly this is the only morality issue you would like to impose on those who might disagree.
    I don't want this to be a discussion about abortion but it is one of those moral issues you speak of, right?
