You mean the insurance companies? By my reckoning, that's who the ACA was created to help.One question. Do the people that the aca was created to help have the 7000.00 dollars for each deductibleNo one is duped, that is just plain ignorant to say. Insurance commissioners are in every state protect the consumer. You are predisposed to believe that any profit is bad.
duped are those that believe donny.
Duped is anyone that believes a democrat or a republican and their campaign promises.
that's why i'm not a (D) ... but as far as healthcare is concerned - i'll believe that (D)s will deliver rather than the (R)s who tried some 60+ times to repeal the ACA - literally spending millions upon millions with no substitute ready to go.
I don't trust D's or R's to make anything better. The two parties are corrupt to the core. I don't believe anything they say nd they seem to screw up everything they do. My big issue with the ACA was it required a citizen to purchase a service or suffer a penalty. Government should not require any monetary payment to remain in good standing as a citizen. Thank you for the great conversation, we may not agree however it is good to get another perspective.
Seriously, if you want to help poor people, you don't need to socialize health insurance. Nor do you need to force everyone to buy in. Just expand the safety net. It'll be a lot cheaper and do less damage to the market.
He's been in office almost 4 years...
why hasn't he done that yet?
the ACA is in front of the SC right now - they will be deciding on whether the whole thing, including ALL the protections ( not just the pre existing condition protection ) go ba bye.
mandated yearly physicals,
vaccinations,
mammogram & colonoscopy coverage,
maternity care & well child care,
catastrophic cost protections,
annual coverage limit caps, lifetime caps,
children staying on their parents' policies until the age of 26...
just to name a few.
they all get wiped out.
Then the SC decides, not the President. So Will is correct. Thank you.
the case started in texas with donny's blessing. although fully aware - he has not weighed in to stop it; nor has mentioned anyting about it - thus duping his poorly educated deplorables even more.
wait till they find out after the fact. some will still say they are willing to die for him.
'merika! fuck ya!!!
So a Texas man has taken a law to the SC and the SC is going to rule on it. Trump has no power to stop it. If it is found to be unconstitutional the SC will strike it down. Trump has done nothing because it is going through a branch of government he is not apart of.
nooooooooooo............. it's the red republican donny supporting state of texas that got the ball rolling.
Anyone is allowed to challenge a law, Trump can’t stop this process because it is in the judicial branch of the government, just like Obama couldn’t stop the challenges that went to the SC for the ACA when he was President.
So Will is still correct and you are dead wrong after four tries.
so you equate ' weighing in ' with the ability to ' stop it '?
silly you - guess you missed comp class.
No the OP did.
So you equate not commenting on a subject as being for it?
Besides, Trump already has said he will push an EO requiring insurance to cover PECs.
uh-huh.
trump has already said that he would 'repeal & replace obamacare on DAY 1 '
trump said ' it's going to be so easy '

How does Trump end PEC’s if only the court can?The OP should be concentrated on why so many have preexisting conditions. Why do you keep deflecting?You’re missing the key point. We are the fattest and unhealthiest country. Maybe less fast food, fatty and you won’t have worry about pre-existing conditions. Doesn’t all your Jew hatred burn calories?Explain whyThat's the point of having insurance before something bad happens....
After all, you don't insure your house after it burns down, do you????
Piss poor analogy.
I already did. read the posts.
I'm sure the board members don't want to talk about me, so I refer you to the OP.
I know you are trying to derail this post so I reported you. This easy, if you vote for tramp gone are the Pec's. Why don't you start a thread on what causes PEC's.
So why didn’t you answer Will’s point? If he is going to end PEC’s, why hasn’t he done so already?
He is waiting on the Supreme Court, you know he is trying to end PEC's and the ACA.
Waiting for the SC to do what?
strike down the ACA in its entirety. the case b4 them now argues that since the mandated coverage has been ruled 'unconstitutional' then the whole law must be ruled that way.Right, and how does Trump end PEC’s if only the court can end it?
if PEC protections are eliminated, or rates are jacked up so much for those that fall into that category where they cannot afford a policy in any healthcare plan he signs - well there you have it.
by being allowed to sell crap plans that are illegal right now.
he'll tout how cheap they are..... lol....b ut WHY are they so cheap?

so do we. it's considered a 'cadillac' plan. of course it's inefficient. the profit motive is flawed from the start.
Well, the ACA did expand the safety net by increasing Medicaid availability. Or at least it tried because so many Republican states refused to expand it.You mean the insurance companies? By my reckoning, that's who the ACA was created to help.

That's the way government mandates work. Defy them. Go to jail. Don't be coy.why do you like giving CEOs millions of dollars to deny coverage?
Because it's my choice. CEO's can't have me arrested if I refuse to do business with them.
who's gonna arrest you?

I do not mind the "profit motive" what I do mind is all the inefficiencies. There has to be a better way.
It's not just poor people we are worried about, it's those with preexisting conditions who are not poor but cannot get affordable insurance since the market doesn't have a way to make them profitable.

^ 'Just expand the safety net. It'll be a lot cheaper and do less damage to the market.
the expanded medicaid portion of the ACA for any state that signs up for it is doing exactly that. for the 1st 5 years, 100% was on the gov'ment's dime, then 90% after that. why are some states still refusing, even after nearly a decade? oklahoma just signed up, which is great CONsidering so many covidiots live there.
It's not just poor people we are worried about, it's those with preexisting conditions who are not poor but cannot get affordable insurance since the market doesn't have a way to make them profitable.
If someone is already sick, they don't need health insurance. They need health care.
Once you start attacking the preexisting condition problem, there are cascading issues which result in the individual mandate.
Yes. The notion that insurance can, or should, cover people with pre-existing conditions is the core delusion hampering health care reform. Trying to indulge that delusion with blunt force legal mandates only creates more problems. We need leaders with the balls to tell people their expectations are insane.
If someone is sick, they need health care which is paid for by health insurance.
Preexisting coverage problems is a core issue in health care. Although it only affects some people, it is an increasing problem. Specifically because more and more Americans have preexisting conditions and fewer and fewer are being covered by employer based insurance which due to HIPAA back in 1996.
If someone is sick, they need health care which is paid for by health insurance.
This is your presumption, a presumption that the health insurance industry very much wants you to have, but it isn't true. Believe it or not insurance isn't the only way to pay for health care! Look it up.
In fact, insurance is a really bad way to pay for health care (or anything else, really) and should only be used for catastrophic situations.
Preexisting coverage problems is a core issue in health care. Although it only affects some people, it is an increasing problem. Specifically because more and more Americans have preexisting conditions and fewer and fewer are being covered by employer based insurance which due to HIPAA back in 1996.
The idea that insurance should cover preexisting conditions is delusional. It's betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of how insurance works. Trying to force insurance to work that way, essentially converting insurance into a social welfare program, creates more problems than it solves.

Depends on what you mean. Most people would be bankrupted by any serious illness. I suppose if you're independently wealthy, it's not a big deal but those are the people most likely to have health insurance.
Without coverage for preexisting conditions, more and more people will be excluded from the insurance market and there is no way to handle that without massive disruption to the market and poorer medical outcomes.
Obama's taking control of 1/5 of the private sector to save me money over doubled my insurance for half the care and a deductible that can never be met. My daughter had to wait to the emergency beeper in her heart pace maker was going off before they would change the battery. So what you say would make me laugh if my family hadn't lived the fucked up obama care bull shit including the death squad so peddle your bull shit to some ignorant bastard liberal that don't know better. My whole life I have taken care of my family's health and didn't need some power hungry ass hole to do it for me. Never would no family member be close to death before meeting his death squads requirements. Until that piece of shit is hanging from a rope will justice return to this country.for PECs. They are not only for the ACA, they help all insurances except what tramp came out with short term plans, they only cover you if your young and healthy.
Short term plans were created to help fill temporary gaps in coverage that can occur in certain situations. These types of plans are typically not good substitutes for traditional health plans. They do not have to adhere to ACA standards. They provide limited benefits with generally much higher costs.
What is Short Term Health Insurance? | Cigna
-------------------------------------
They are pretty much the same as cobra, except they don't cover you if your have a PEC. I know a lot of you are on Medicare, but don't you want people younger to have PEC's coverage, your children and your grandkids?
Be wary of signing up for Advantage Plans.
Say bye if you vote for tramp.

Sorry, MANY insurers bailed because of the losses. MANY agents were ruined because these companies cancelled all contracts and then pulled out. The ACA was NOT an improvement.
