[sheepishly] I kinda don’t have a problem with this, especially if medical debts = pharma debts. That whole system is an arrogant rogue blood-sucking travesty.
Maybe if I researched it more ... but on its face, I might be OK with it.
Part of what they’re saying is this- a tens of thousands per year per person deductible on top of a tens of thousands per year per person insurance bill on top of medical bills is too much for anyone paying for a mortgage on top of property taxes along with tens of thousands per year for a car and car insurance and repairs and a thousand per months to feed a family is too much for anyone to keep up with
In New York in particular where property taxes are 10 to 20 thousand a year
Bye in New York they allow people on government assistance to vote. Who thought of that?
And New York is about $80 billion in debt inviting non working foreign people to come and live off the government which has no money.
Actually, I could be wrong though, NY never used to report medical debt to the credit agencies. I think they only recently did start to report it - so she’s going to stop something that they just started to do...
My husband was always throwing away his med bills, LOL. I’d find a old stack sometimes, and pay those. But we had amazing insurance before obamacare, and not too bad after that crap was forced on us, so his/our med bills were little ones.
But not once did any of those unpaid bills end up on our credit history. Not until right before we fled NY 2 years ago, then I think there was a small one.
