WASHINGTON – Many middle-class Americans would still struggle to pay for health insurance despite efforts by President Barack Obama and Democrats to make coverage more affordable.

No free lunch.
Unless you’re an illegal alien peasant from Mesoamerica.
the more they mess things up, I am reassured we will take the 2010 elections. But, i am worried we may not be able to undo the mess they will create before the elections.
Sure, Chuckie, just like y'all made college educations "affordable" for the middle class.
Government has already destroyed the ability of middle class Americans to buy health insurance at affordable rates. Many states mandate that sniffles, vaccinations, baby well-checks, etc. be paid for. However, the expensive things, like surgeries often are covered after high deductibles and percentage splits (to make the policies reasonably affordable). So, you get your well-baby check “for free”, pay really high premiums, and still have high medical bills if someone has something catastrophic happen.
Wouldn’t it make so much more sense to pay the $100 for the annual well-baby check, the $200 for vaccinations every few years, $70 for the office visit and have cheaper catastrophic coverage? Why can’t the government allow us that freedom?
The poser messiah is only doing it because he loves you...NO...I mean himself.
I have heard that there are more than 135,000 pages of regulations to wade through if you take Medicare money. The cost of the paperwork must be even more than the cost of liability insurance. So the President promises to get the monkey off the back of medical care by putting another monkey on the back of the first monkey?
Yes.
Sure. That's why they are outlawing HSAs. Help my *ss.
“Why can’t the government allow us that freedom?”
Thanks, I’m certain you already are aware, but your post allows me a segue to a rant ;)
The goal of the Left, be they the obvious Democrat Left, Communist Left, Green Left, or the sleight of hand Leftist RINO is control of the masses and the money.
The Left see’s you and myself as nothing more than herd animals to keep, and maintain for their personal use, as in slavery, sustenance, and wealth. I’m not talking about Soylent Green when I say sustenance, but am referring to their natural egotistical need to feed off the power they gain by ability to control, and how many they individually control within their new World order will determine their status within their Leftist caste.
The Left has to be stopped, and the Left has to be condemned to obscurity from the politics of our lives. They are as a perpetual virus making life a miserable experience.
Glad I could assist in allowing you to seque! I agree.
This is not good for the poor or anyone else.
No sh!+? Really?
Boy, those news.yahoo.com folks are REALLY on top of things.
meanwhile, people that don't speak English come into the ER for their care that we have to wait for an appt to get.....
The new taxes they’re proposing will help give those illegals health insurance so they won’t have to use the ER. I guess WE will have to start using the ER.
