There’s eleven billions in savings right there. I’m ticked because my copays and monthly payments went up which means I’m subsidizing people who are getting it for nothing. Does that make me hard-hearted - hell no.
People on welfare programs for their health care don’t have to pay co-pays. Nice, huh?
Currently there is a plan in place helping people get health care “for nothing.” With Obamacare eliminated we will be back to the legally mandated more expensive care in Emergency Rooms, and they will still get “something for nothing” but it will cost more and we will still pay for it.
“I’m subsidizing people who are getting it for nothing.”
Doesn’t that make all feel warm and fuzzy all over?
No...that does not make you hard hearted...it just makes you poor...just like them...and THAT makes you more dependent on the stinking government and THAT is what the plan was from the beginning...
When the government controls your purse strings they control your liberty.... It takes a strong man to disregard the economy of house, home and family in order to keep his freedom...
And as far as I know...it doesn't cost the stinking politician a single red cent of the best insurance coverage that your money can buy... What a county, right comrade..??
$3 Billion lost to Cancer drug waste.

What has got to be stopped is the ads for new drugs, they cost more than older proven ones. Useless drugs are another issue. FDA flagged drugs should be pulled from the market. Hospital test that should take 3 hrs take 5 and you are let go totally Dehydrated because no one is trained to spot it.
I have to have a new monthly script for the pain med I have to take, and it must contain the term CHRONIC PAIN or the Military Dispensary will only fill it for 2 weeks. I live chronic level 8/9 pain from several health conditions none of them fixable. Why do I need to see the Primary every 3 months just for script refills for some meds? Then need test to make sure they aren’t killing my liver or kidneys? It they are that dangerous why are they on the market?
Foreto the Osteoporosis drug is DOUBLE FDA Flagged, why is it still on the market and being pushed by doctors who don’t tell the patient the facts about it being flagged?
Saw my Primary Monday for script refills, as we are DOD MANDATED to use Military Base or Express Scripts, not all drugs are available at the base. You fill at the Base, but refill out of Pensacola for our area and the bottles for tiny pills are huge instead of fitting the medicine. Then you have the issue of what to do with the drugs that cause bad reactions that are very expensive with just 1 or 2 pills. Why not go to a trail dose to weed out this issue of having to throw away a $400 bottle of medicine because you had a horrid reaction to just 1 or 2 pills?
You can’t donate them to a health clinic for the poor even. If you dispose of them properly you have to take them to a private pharmacy as the Military Base won’t take them back.
Our co-pays went up last year, NO COLA raise this year, Medicare went up last year too. And we get less coverage thanks to the THIEVES in Congress stealing the money from Medicare and Tricare Life to fund Obamacare.
