What happens after McCain dies? They'll eventually get what they want to destroy anything and everything Obama did those 8 yrs. The Dems. are the ones I blame for that fiasco. They cooked up a right-wing half measure Health Ins. scheme and it sucks take it from someone who has a policy we pay every month and it covers less then nothing. It's a very expensive emergency Ins. policy that only kicks in after you pay 6K worth of deductibles. Plus, it has huge co-pays on top of that. Did I say it sucks? It sucks! Oh by the way it sucks. The funny part is the GOP wants to replace it with NOTHING so it's better then that. How's that for a shitty deal? What will it take for us to finally get the wolves and other predators off our backs and let us have a Single Payer system like the rest of the planet? Got me?

I go ta similar shitty policy that covers nothing. I had $1500 out of pocket expenses over the last few months because I wanted to see a specialist. My insurance didn't recognize my claim and I got reimbursed $0. So I hear ya. I'm on a corporate policy too, from my wife. My mother used to say to me - don't get old. She was right.

Jim, thank God I have Medicare. My wife has five yrs. till then, so in the meantime, we're stuck buying her lousy policy and just praying she stays well. When she goes to the Dr. the Ins. company challenges everything. It's absurd, what do they cover? Nothing but major medical and then only after 6K worth of deductibles! No wonder there is so much anger about this crappy system. Maybe, the Dems. thought they were doing us all a favor? We need single payer or the next best thing Medicare for all, which by the way is NOT single payer either. You still need a supplemental policy with Medicare. Medicare is not as cheap as most people think. It's helluva a lot better then Ocare or Medicaid but its no panacea either. Right now a big chunk of our meager income pays for various Ins. policies its absurd, but you cannot live without them.
