Yes, he did.Wow, did you just make that up on the spot?More lies and personal insults. I keep my people away from "predatory lenders."
Demonizing insurance companies? No need. They do it to themselves.
60% of U.S. bankruptcies are caused by medical bills, and have you ever hear the term "pre-existing condition?"
Our system sucks. That is why it is failing.
Bullshit, most of those bankruptcies are because they were swimming in debt. Medical issues may have been the straw that broke the camels back, but lifestyle is the main issue.
It is a fuckin' bullshit lie! Where's this "60% of U.S. bankruptcies are caused by medical bills" come from?
NCHC | Facts About Healthcare - Health Insurance CostsA recent study by Harvard University researchers found that the average out-of-pocket medical debt for those who filed for bankruptcy was $12,000. The study noted that 68 percent of those who filed for bankruptcy had health insurance. In addition, the study found that 50 percent of all bankruptcy filings were partly the result of medical expenses
I've read enough of your posts to gather that you don't quite understand the concept of personal responsibility, but if $12 000 puts you into bankruptcy, then you have been living above your means.
Not to mention that the above study suggests it was a contributing factor in 50% of the filings. Not THE fucking reason for 60%!!
