$2500 a year should be manageable to a family with 130,000 in income.
Here come the Obamacare sob stories. The Republicans need to extend the “temporary COVID” expansion of subsidies or else families will lose their health insurance and die!!!!
Don’t care, nothing that demands a service be provided of another is a right, it is slavery to force it.
Healthcare is not a right. End this government slavery and get back to actual charity and affordable private insurance if you really want to help the disadvantaged.
Never forget that Obamacare was passed on a Sunday, Christmas Eve, no less, without a single Republican vote in its favor.
Another epic sob story. It’s all the media know. It’s the go-to crutch to advance their propaganda.
“If the enhanced tax credit for Affordable Care Act customers is allowed to run out, they’ll have to pay an extra $2,500 a year.”
That’s not a lot of money when you consider that $2500 is the cost of a Big Mac Combo every day............
She and her husband have been at their jobs for 30 years?
And they have two young boys?
It could make sense ... but seems odd.
In any case, I don’t know why my tax dollars should pay for her health insurance.
What do we think of that?
Well, they can do what the illegals do - show up at an ER and expect to be treated. Problem is, unlike illegals - they’ll get a huge bill which may bankrupt them...
My daughter recently had a baby and everything was completely normal - she went home the next day. Cost = $50,000 (!!) - of which they had to pay a good part.
An illegal can go in, have a baby for free - and the baby has automatic American citizenship.
Something is very wrong with this picture...
Sorry, but that’s $2500 some other taxpayers don’t have to pay. If health insurance is important to you, buy it yourself. With an income of $130000, there’s more than enough slop in your spending to meet the new premiums. I live on my SS income and my health insurance eats up almost 25% of my total income. So, until your health care premiums reach almost $32,000 I have absolutely no sympathy for you.
A “log roller” huh? The jokes write themselves. I can see why she needs her neighbors to pay her bills.
My mom had eight children raised from the 1940s through 1950s into the 1960s; we never had health insurance. How in the hell did we survive!?!?!?
When the political class saw the average workers paycheck was paying out in deductions more for Healthcare insurance premiums than income taxes, the government was going to go into the health insurance game.
“If we’re going to cut some of our kids’ activities, my husband is looking at other places to work that would provide more funding toward health care — WE DON’T WANT TO DO THAT.”
Translation: We’re Socialist Democrats and we VOTED FOR THIS - but since we’re so dependent upon Mother Government to run our lives, we’re BAFFLED when we have to take charge of our own lives to make them work!
Idiots.
Stop with the sob stories. I don’t owe you shit, lady.
No sympathy.
With the increase in Medicare payments to 220 a month, my husband and I will be paying 5,280 dollars for our âÂÂhealth insurance â next year. And we make MUCH less than 130,000 a year. Sooooo, Boo-hooo!
Why does a family of four making 130,000 a year need government subsidized anything?
There will be a steady drumbeat of these sad stories all the way till Jan.
So people are already paying $2500 a year and have much less income.
Dig into the ownership of Channel3000.
Nuff said.
