Romney has paid back those who supported him AGAIN.
The corrupt slickster takes from people and gives to his contributers.
Just like the slickster's coverup of the BIGdig.

In particular, state-subsidized insurance packages offered to low-income residents have been so popular that the programs spending may exceed its budget by nearly $150 million. For now...

"Routine health and dental care should come out of your pocket or Health Savings Accounts. Insurance companies should only be able offer catastrophic coverage and not be able to exclude pre-existing conditions."
Thank you!! I've been sayin' this for years! People think I'm nutz for payin' out-of-pocket for the small-ticket healthcare items (checkups, meds, et cetera).
Government meddling into healthcare is the primary cause for the outrageous costs of care and insurance. Romney's "solution" was anything but.

Not if the health care you DON’T want will cost upwards of $6000, single coverage.

There are elements of the Massachusetts plan I like but the mandates need to go. The truth is Americans will not pay a great deal for health insurance. If the price tag is too high, they will turn it down.

“Particularly, insurers should not be able to deny coverage due to pre-existing conditions. Thats the main thing that people dont get. Even if you can afford it, you can be turned down for minor things.”
If you can wait until you are sick, it isn’t insurance. And insurers do not turn people down for minor things if prices are flexible. Furthermore, there is a guaranteed issue plan in every state by federal law. They tend to be more expensive as you are supposed to buy insurance before you get sick, but you can always get insurance that limits our out-of-pocket to say $6,000 a year no matter what is wrong with you.

You are hostile.
And I’m not a “sir.” Would that fact improve your manners any?
