This is like having a toddler taking his first steps! If you let go of mommy's hand, you're on your own.
What an insult to those of us who HAVE done it on our own! I don't feel like a 'toddler' holding 'mommy's hand.' I am a grown adult woman who raised two children alone, and in the process put them through college and got 3 degrees of my own.
There is SUCH an entitlement mentality in this country. This medication I am on costs $100K/year. I have great insurance, but the drug company kept sending it out in little drips and drabs costing me an arm and a leg. Each time I tried to explain that my insurance wasn't being opptimized the person would say 'do you need assistance?' (This is not a medicine you can go down to your local pharmacy and buy.) Finaly, I let her have it and told her the ONLY assistance I need is for them to take the time and go to the trouble to optimize my health insurance. It was like chewing razors. She didn't even believe I had insurance that would allow me to only pay $70 for $25K worth of it. But I do. She found that out when she took the time to check it out. Every person I talked to at that company was so quick to ask if I needed assistance, and SO UNwilling to even check my benefits which I still go to work every day to EARN!
