Others have probably asked this already, but...
If you’ve been here for five years, and “68gunswillneverdie” joined today, what was your former screen name?
In all seriousness, if you won’t answer that question you WILL get the zot. I’ve seen the Mods tolerate all sorts of tomfoolery from someone up until he deploys the “I’ve been a member here for years but can’t tell you who I am” gambit. Then the lightning goes forth.

"Why is Obmama's plan so bad?"Have you tried snake oil yet?
At least the latter has truth in advertising.

he is making plans to move to Seattle, WA so that he can get on their community insurance program. Great. Not to sound unkind, but I find it a bit annoying that out-of-staters come here to use MY tax dollars for health care.

The problem is — and this comment is not directed at the original poster — that many people want all the benefits of being a member of a close knit community with a strong support structure, but they aren’t willing to make the sacrifices associated with being part of that community. So they turn to the state with the presumption that it doesn’t matter if they skimp or free-ride on other aspects of their membership in the political community because all that matters is getting benefits.
But by far the worst thing that the post-FDR vision of the state has done is corrupt our ability to engage in charity. I know a lot of leftists who justify their lack of charitable giving (when they are not openly mocking me for tithing) by the fact that they vote for social programs. This idea that the state should take over the difficulties of personal sacrifice and charity seems to absolve them, in their minds, of the fact that they are not individually charitable.

Let’s assume for a moment that you’re for real.
In that case, the questions you’re asking are best answered by a discussion with an independent insurance agent (or your doctor) or Internet research.
However, there is one thing I can say with absolute certainty, and it applies whether you’re telling the truth or not: There is not one thing in HR 3200 or the Baucus bill that will help you or your family in any way. Not one bloody thing. If you doubt me, go here...

...or look up what happened when Hawaii adopted government health care...or what happened to cancer patients in Oregon when they did so.

Okay, no Viking Kitties or Ozone for you - yet.
You want some advice - here it is...
- Go to your State's Website. All states have a program for the 'un insurable'. You may need three formal rejection letters from insurance companies. Depends on the state.
- He's an adult so he nmay have to do this on his own. Depends on the state. And INCOME always plays into it. He may be able to get Medicaid
- Same for son #2. Check the state programs.
But the catch is in any case is that states run out of money for this 'un insurable program' early in the fiscal year and stop accepting applicants. oh and this isn't 'free', you're in a 'Insurance Pool', I don't know the premium cost
And here's some of the problems with Obama Deathcare
- He's destroying an entire system that only needs tweaking
- With Obama Deathcare son #1 would be told by his Death Panel if the Cancer comes back take a pill, your life isn't worth expensive treatment.
- Son #2 would get his medicine UNTIL something bad would happen, like needing an amputation (common). They'd let him die
- Obama Deathcare isn't "FREE", you still have to pay for it, just like any insurance. Except instead of 'dropping you' they really will 'Drop You' -- off into the oven you're not worthy of living.
- Its a combo of Communism and Fascism and pure Evil.
So there you have it 'newbie'.

I did try others first. This is the only one that really controls it with one pill a day. Otherwise I was living on Tums and being miserable anyway. Like I said, I can afford it, but it’s expensive.

I did help in post 82. I allayed him fears about the 2nd son not being able to get insurance down the road. Diabetics don't get turned down. I don't know about cancer patients.

My husband takes Nexium twice a day. There is no generic equivalent. Now that I am unemployed and do not have insurance it costs us $82 for a week's worth of pills. Does your husband notice much difference compared to OTC Prilosec ($22 for 42 capsules). It had been a few years since I reviewed the literature, but it was difficult at the time to find any experimental advantage of the higher-priced brand name prescription PPIs compared to Prilosec. I didn't notice any difference myself.

He was covered by my insurance as long as he stayed in college
I can only assume it was your employer sponsored insurance coverage. Based on that assumption, why didn't you continue his coverage under COBRA which means you would have had to pay the employer the applicable monthly premium for either 18 or 36 months, I forget which one.
