i’m ex military and i understand your issue...the problem is OBAMACARE not the military..the whole law is about DESTROYING medical insurance not the military...by adding druggies to 26 exposes all of us to obscene expenses...let those that are addicted GET their own insurance...or go to mexico for treatment...we hope obamacare will be repealled ...that was the point i was making not connectiveity
First I do not agree that we should HAVE to be responsible for our “kids” until 26—however, my kids will be fined if they don’t have health ins. But has anyone ever thought about these MILITARY BRATS-—the Medicaid KIDS can get free coverage having done nothing for our country but bleed it dry. our military Brats - have gone Christmas’, birthday, major life events with a parent gone serving this country. I have 3 brats in college - no financial assistance except what my BRATS EARNED as academic scholarships-—and I am proud of what they are accomplishing. M Brats are usually not finished with college at 23 since most have been held back, transferred to different schools mid year and other circumstances due to the good of the military. I called Humana this week because 2 of my kids are kicked out of Tricare (one is a SR but will turn 23 before she graduates and one just turned 21-but is only taking 10 credit hours while working full time and not considered Full time) and the premium for the 2 girls is over 8000.00 for TRICARE STANDARD. That is 1/2 my husbands retirement. I am going to have to change jobs where I can help my BRATS with insurance for the next 2 years, not because they play Xbox (we can’t afford one) but because my BRATS are good students that have sacrificed more than any MEDICAID BRAT will ever realize for them.
