You say you want the penalty increased as an incentive to buy health insurance. Let's increase it to $2,400 a year. I get sick the government says hey your in luck. We took that money and bought a coverage for you. What better way to spend your money you gave us?! Boom problem solved. Everyone's insured. And its not government run?! I agree people will get denied whether its government or insurance. It's a fact of life. Only so much money to go around. The owner of my company just went and tried to get health care coverage because his wife lost her job. She worked for Pracs. He was denied coverage because of a "preexisting condition. " He previously went to rehab. Wonder how much his coverage will be once ObamaCare kicks in and they can no longer deny him. Maybe he'll just pay the penalty if its too high.

I knew that was your goal lol.
-
All I need is "basic" care. Doubt Altru or Sanford couldn't treat me. Insurance companies right now can deny things and are only required to do the "basic."
-
That's what happens now. Insurance companies determine your care. Rich people right now are still buying commercial and a gettingthe best care in the world. Didn't I just read most hospitals also already get millions from the federal government right now?

You know what most of these massive shootings/domestic attacks have in common that's not widely reported: serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Did you just link to this thread? That should be enough of a down payment.

Fightingsioux4life. Honest question. How do you think we stop the next one?
-
.The only relevative thing the media will talk about now is how to stop the next one. They've already mentioned increase homeland security, more drones, more surveillance.

The answer becomes and I know its not popular, but the government needs to take it out of your check. Everyone pays the same from life til death. Why do I pay for retirement right now but not health coverage. Almost seems backwards. If I get slapped with a million dollar health care bill, the last thing on my mind is how to pay for retirement.

Can insurance companies massively increase ones health care cost if they insure individual? This is a massive shift in this country that has never been seen before in our lives so there's a lot of unanswered questions. And it will be affecting me if not now 365 days from now. My point is most people claim bankruptcy because of doctor bills. Will this really slow that rate down? Say I owe a hospital $10,000 I'm likely to say. Sorry I'm not going to pay you. For right or wrong.

I'll take your average. Say my insurance coverage is $1000 a month. How much subsidy will the government provide? Probably not much? Without assistance that's half of Americans monthly take home. It's simply not sustainable. Secondly, if my medical self insured bill is only a hundred a month. Can and how much will mine increase if I get cancer? Could it increase to a $1,000 a month? I'm not sure the math. But what does the average person use in health care costs, even before they are forty? $15,000. A women on average has what two kids. How much is a baby? $6000? My mom and my bro both had appendix taken out. That's $36,000 for my mother. Plus other costs. My brother was under 18 at the time so my mother's insurance paid it.
-
Thought they didn't make such profits?
-
$500 to $1500 a month. Basically not affordable to most Americans making under $40,000. People can't afford to buy that insurance no matter how you slice it. Just file for bankruptcy. I believe I read the average Minnesotan has $100 a month left to spend after bills are paid.
-
Can you explain to me how preexisting conditions have to be covered now? I can't be denied coverage they say, but if I have cancer and go get insurance what's my payment $2,000 a month? They take out retirement for me. Make everyone buy insurance or get fined by the government. Might as well just take it out of my check like the others.

When I tell my auto body guy I had insurance the cost to fix a vehicle is $3,000. When I tell him I don't have insurance and I'm "getting quotes" its $2,000. I'm sure health care is the same way. Insurance companies are loving ObamaCare. Just got done filing my taxes. I was told by H & R block if I don't have insurance next year I will have to pay a fine of $300. And the year after that the fine jumps to $600.

And here I thought a spring game would be good to watch outside...oops. ha

I believe Altru was rated the worse customer satisfaction in the state. Article in the herald few months ago.

Body scanners at the library would have.

The point is being sub .500 doesn't make it not a success necessarily. Finishing third in the Big Sky conference in year one is a success.
