7. Septembro 2011, 18:50:06 Temo: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! Modifita de Mort (7. Septembro 2011, 18:50:41) I'm on disability now from AT&T. Three years ago I was making $150,000 a year as a Global Account Manager for Cingular, then I had to go on disability shortly before AT&T took over. I paid for the best health coverage available and also always paid for supplemental disability insurance. I've been on disability and under medical treatment since then. You'd think with my career path, income and savings, and my commitment to always get the most and best insurance I could I should be in great shape, right? I'm now completely broke, I have no retirement savings left, can't pay for my kids college, and my copay on just ONE of my prescriptions has gone from $150 to $1254 for a one-month supply, so I can't even afford the prescription I need to stay alive. I don't care how good your job is, how secure it is, how great your insurance is, or how much you have in savings and retirement accounts, YOU ARE NOT COVERED. The contractors your company works with (i.e., United Healthcare for Medical Ins., Hewett for Benefits Mgmt., Sedgewick for Disability Mgmt., CVS for drug benefits, etc.) will pull every trick in the book to reduce/deny coverage. Their systems are set up to force you to monitor a constant barrage of paperwork and forms, and if you miss any required response notices, they will permanently drop you from benefits/coverage, and you're screwed, forever. WASHINGTON — The largest medical insurers and drug companies spent 41% more on lobbying this year as Congress began debate on an overhaul of health care, which may include a public insurance plan the industries oppose.

I say it was not Obama that caused companies to increase insurance costs in the USA, but the extra money the Health companies are spending on making sure they profit while people live in pain, go bankrupt.. or die. This is great that people in America (practising nimby's) love their neighbours!! 8. Septembro 2011, 01:43:06 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!!  (V): It's not the job of the government to steal money from people and give it to others. That's Robin Hood's job.  8. Septembro 2011, 02:05:41 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! Artful Dodger: Even Robin Hood must have taken a cut of the profits for himself and his merry men. You know, operating costs such as mutton, wine, and a little something to keep Maid Marian happy. Not exactly ethical for anyone to be acting as an unofficial middle man, but hey.. it's a living. 8. Septembro 2011, 02:27:16 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! Iamon lyme: Robin Hood only stole from the rich. I wonder if they were nasty rich people or just regular rich people? Anyway, Obama want's to steal from everyone. And why doesn't congress have to be on the same health insurance plan as we the people? If we're their bosses, why do they get to decide their own raises? They are the opposite of Robin. They steal from the working class and keep the money for themselves! 8. Septembro 2011, 03:09:20 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! Artful Dodger: Exactly. The causes they supposedly stand for are actually just conduits for what they are really after.. power and money. I know how cynical that sounds, but when I see it happening time after time after time, I can't come to any other conclusion. Al Gore selling his snake oil (carbon credits) for curing global warming. Obama trying to win favor with the left wingnuts who think health care funds grow on trees.. or should grow on trees, I don't know because I can't figure out how their minds work. Raising taxes for schools (do it for the children) when it's obvious that throwing money at the teachers unions has done nothing to actually help those kids do better in school.. the list goes on and on. The people at the top of this game know exactly what they are doing. It's the people they supposedly represent who wholeheartedly buy into it without thinking it through. 8. Septembro 2011, 03:46:51 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! Iamon lyme: The worst idea ever was public service employee unions. For a number of reasons, I'd like to see their power minimized. It's our $$ 8. Septembro 2011, 04:46:28 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! Artful Dodger: Would you say that if you were a member of public service employee unions? 8. Septembro 2011, 05:04:50 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! The Col: That's hardly the point. But in answer to your question, yes I would. 8. Septembro 2011, 01:52:42 Temo: Re: Death Panels in America... and the Con's supports it!! (V): "This is great that people in America love their neighbours!!" How do you figure it's 'loving your neighbour' if you don't have a choice? |
