Think...under this system, you’d have a 14-month waiting period for prenatal care (30 days for illegal alien mothers to facilitate birthright citizenship), but killing the baby is free, convenient, available every day of the year. If you decide to go the free pro-life charity care center, then you cannot do that either because it’ll be outlawed. The rich (or really the poor) can learn Spanish, go to Mexico, pay for doctors, and get real health care, but their babies, born outside the United States, would lack birthright citizenship. But only after paying 90% of their money to the government in taxes.
Ah, the yearning desire of the American people fulfilled at last. And I’m unfortunately not joking nor even exaggerating. This is what a large majority of millennial young adult voters, fully indoctrinated in atheistic communism in everything but name and mostly (yes, a majority) lacking parents (plural) who don’t abandon their children, want, even in the “red” states.
Older Americans never experienced the trauma and deep poverty of juveniles today. Sure, they can use better technology, and many posses unsurpassed material wealth. But they have no father, increasingly know not of God as Father, and so take government as their father. They know not the power of God, so they worship government as a god. Our colleges and universities and their graduates, who now teach in public schools all across this land, inculcate this barren spirituality into the youngest generation of Americans. Public schools will not teach religion, but they can teach insidiously if never explicitly materialism, sentimentalism, scientism, and various other antithesitic heresies as a veritable new religion that displaces effectively the adoration of the one True God. Our schools fail to inculcate basic logical reasoning into the youngest generation of Americans, primarily because such logic defeats plainly liberalism and all these false philosophies, and worse still for Satan, logic leads people to the Logos, God Incarnate, the Way, the Truth, the Life, Jesus Christ, who formed us in His Image.
Americans, especially young Americans, desperately long for God, whom they know not, and therefore fall into the trap of accepting big government as the false god of their lives, according the bureaucracy and the Democrats who sustain it the adulation that theistic societies reserve for God.
Other than evangelization, bringing people to God, getting these young adults into the Church, changing their materialistic worldview into a theocentric one, I can offer no practical solution.
So, rather than offer such insurance, the private companies that are still around just stopped offering health insurance? Because my broker, when I asked about private health insurance for my husband, told me that he should hang on for dear life to the insurance his company offers. And when I called USAA to inquire, they said they only have Marketplace and ONE private insurer. And the term is only for 3 months at a time.
I say we just burn the damn place down and start over... :(
Well said.
Yes, for the simple reason that insurance is a numbers game, and if the policy underwriters are unsure of the numbers, they don't play.
The big wildcard in Obamacare's mandatory minimum coverage was for pre-existing conditions. They had no idea how many pre-existing conditions they would suddenly be liable to pay out for, so they could not accurately price their product. So they didn't offer a product.
Bravo..!
Theoretically that would be a wash, as so many people have pre-existing conditions that as one moves from Company A to Company B, and the other vice-versa, they would offset.
In practice though insurers always try and cherry-pick the healthiest customers who are pure profit. We started the house of cards tumbling when we shoved all of the older customers they didn’t want onto Medicare. It’s just going to keep coming down at this point.
1) Continues to allow private "concierge" medicine,
2) Eliminates trial lawyer profiteering from malpractice suits.
3) Punishes hypochondriacs and high-risk lifestyle practitioners by restricting their access to the system.
Part 3 will be the hardest part for Democrats to swallow, since so many of their most active base supporters fall into that category. But the public would strongly support such a system - and the party who delivered it.
You ignore all of the people that had NO previous coverage, who suddenly could get coverage and have their pre-existing conditions covered. The cost of those new policyholders was the wildcard that nobody could reliably estimate, or hedge against. So the two choices is to radically raise premiums or not offer coverage at all.
They now control the state, with our homosexual Governor elect and control of both the State Senate and House, Sec. State, and AG.....
We're toast!
Socialists Won’t Rest Until We Have Single-Payer Health Care
And you imagine they will stop there sort of absolute power? hahahaha
