“Gruber: Old people are stupid. “
It’s Obama through Gruber.
What a pyle. I hope when he gets to that age....well cannot say it here. Oh gruber did it occur to you maybe the cheaper plan doesn’t cover all the med needed?
Oh wait...no old people are stupid and need to die right gruber?
Gruber is stupid.
You will screw yourself mightily if you just pick the lowest cost plan and do not carefully check the formulary for the meds you actually take...You could pay big bucks for tier 4 meds, for example.
AND you have to check year after year.
Boy this guy is the gift that keeps on giving. I love these intellectual types that think their so smart they don’t have the common sense to see they’re sticking both feet in their mouths. Keep talking azzhat.
He is exempt from obamadeathcare isn’t he? I bet his parents get anything they need for healthcare.
Freedom of Choice, is what you’ve got.
Freedom from Choice, is what you want.

So the Nanny State should step into the equation - NOT.
I actually agree with him on this.
Due to decades of social-engineering and top-down central planning by Government, we make choices for retirement, income, taxes, investments, health-care, housing - EXTREMELY convoluted and complicated.
yeah - and they don’t choose ‘maternity” etc - insurance.
How dumb.
With OCare, they get and pay for it - like it or not
Old people don’t really need all the prescription medications the pharmaceutical industry pushes.Our grandparents did pretty well without being old junkies.Endless adverts on TV promoting pills for every perceived problem are for the enrichment of companies.I looked at the various plans available here and the deductible plus monthly premium add up to at least $750 annually best case.
When and why did Americans accept the idea that being older means taking a bunch of pills every day ?
Maybe under Obama, old people need to be DEAD unless they are union government retirees or employees.
The way Democrats are lately I don’t doubt it could be truly the way they think and Palin did call the death panels.
Now hold on a minute - with 50 different options who wouldn’t be confused? Systems should be designed for people, not people for systems. If Gruber can’t come up with a decision tree that illustrates his process, he doesn’t understand it either. Show us, bud.
Maybe I can schedule my health crises for only those years when I pay for the low deductible.
OTOH, if you are on maintenance meds, check into three-month deliveries, either by mail order or through some local pharmacies. My current health plan makes me pay two months of co-pays for three months of meds if I go through CVS. Not really fond of CVS but it will save me about $240 this way as opposed to monthly payments to my regular pharmacy.
I still pay for my drugs and eschew part D because I don't use medicare, but have an advantage plan.
The plan has a drug portion, but it is in my best interests to pay for my own drugs.
But, being stupid, I'm not sure if this is the right thing, I now have an email into Gruber and Associates to find out what I should do.
Face it, Americans do a terrible job electing leaders.
Ezekial Emmanual said a few weeks ago that the cut off age should be 75 yrs old..after that just drop dead..yeah that is the liberal mentality..too bad they don’t have the same belief for themselves
