To: Sweet Hour of Prayer
The Company I most recently worked for started offering all benefits now available to married couples to "partners" without specifying homo vs hetero. I would imagine that is probably the norm.

My problem with the whole thing is not the homosexual side of it, (that's really none of my business), my problem is that the liberals of the world have been pushing all inclusive health plans for so long that they have now become unaffordable to many, many businesses and people looking to buy individual policies.

An example is the amount of insurances that are required (many by state law) to cover birth control, or preventative medicine, or viagra, or weight loss, etc, ect.

I work in the medical billing field, and I know how expensive insurance is.

For all of those complaining about all of the uninsured, I say they only have themselves to blame. Insurance would be extremely affordable for all if it was truely insurance.

How many of us could afford car insurance if we demanded that our plans covered oil changes?

Sorry to rant on in a post that really isn't about health insurance but it is a killer issue for me.

Has anyone else noticed the "buzz" words already in play for the 2004 Presidential election from the Dems? You got it Universal Health Care, or a better euphanism...Single Pay System. For those who don't believe it will ever come, who thought that both sides would be fighting for a prescription drug program for seniors 10 years ago?

I predict that unless the War on Terror is still top and center in 2004, you will hear Universal Health Care, and guess what, it will be paid for by you via new taxes.
