As a nurse, I see what Obamacare has done. It was a tax on the wealthy and middle class to give to the “poor”- Obamas peeps. However, when you see the daily dose of the “poor” coming to the ER and getting admitted, they all have a problem list a mile long. They all have drug addictions, bad ( self induced) social situations, all are on some psychiatric med, they dont listen to medical advice, smoke cigs and drink alcohol. Their bad decisions make them unemployable and create medical problems. Obamacare extended coverage to these losers by managed plans run by private insurance companies. In order to recoup their losses by taking care of a bunch of losers, insurance companies are increasing the cost of coverage to the people who actually work. The losers dont pay a dime.
Insurance companies are not making a profit on these people.
I am waiting for retirement, because I deal with these people all day long, and it burns you out.

I hear you!
I have some family members that are just as you describe. In addition they are leeches and WILL suck anyone dry that displays an micro-ounce of compassion towards them. Money, (for their habits), food, shelter, etc. They only way to get free of them is to slam the door in their faces, refuse to answer the phone. etc. And in my wife and my own case... move as far away as possible from them.
And no we can’t afford any insurance either, so we pay as we go... cash on the barrel head and the Doctor is happy to see that. He told me that the insurance company has been as long as 120 days on paying for the billing to them.
