Selling insurance across state lines is NOT the same thing as being able to sell insurance in any state they wish.
Insurance firms in each state are protected from interstate competition by the federal McCarran-Ferguson Act, which grants states the right to regulate health plans within their borders.
Health insurance companies are not allowed to sell insurance in any state they wish.
Fact.
Yes, which is why I have said from the get-go that ObamaCare was a bait and switch con.There is one, and only one, metric by which the success or failure of TrumpCare will be judged by the American people:
Cost.
If health care bills reach unprecedented levels, the GOP will pay a heavy, heavy penalty.
Period.
Health care bills have already reached unprecedented levels.
TrumpCare is shaping up to be the biggest hoax of all.
No, we're all in one pot. The only distinction is my wife, like thousands of other people, were covered under one policy when they got whatvever they got. My wife is fortunate enough that she never had a lapse in coverage, and is still covered without regard to pre-existing. However if you, Fox, ever got cancer and then had a change of employement, you would be a deplorable and uninsurable.The present bill would add 14K per year to my wife's insurance because she has rheumatoid arthritis. .And some GOP House members will die with it.Prediction, The House passes it, it dies in the Senate.
Won't happen, let's see Obama shut down the Govt and it was said Pubs would die a horrible death in the mid-terms. They took the House. Two year later, they took the Senate and now Hillary is knitting little sickies for Bill and Chelsea. No changes will take place until the powers that be decide they will take place. 2016 was a staged election so I'm not certain there will be any mid-terms.
So instead of you paying that 14K of expenses that are by all standards of common decency your responsibility, you want the rest of us to pay it for you? Sounds like you want to foist off that "pre-existing" condition on your fellow citizens and I for one don't appreciate you advocating the federal government holding a gun to my head and forcing me to pay for YOUR expenses.

HUGE difference.
GEICO can sell car insurance in any state they wish. NO health insurance company is allowed to do that.
They are prohibited by the McCarran-Ferguson Act.

As for cost, the gop is saying it will sweeten the pot. But more so, why should anyone who got cancer or had a stroke or had treatment for depression or had arthritis or had high blood pressure, or had a kid with heart disease somehow not be insurable?

So, answer this... you drive an $80k Corvette, you have no insurance other than liability and you total the car. You walk into Allstate and say "I just totaled my car, I need collision coverage so I can replace my car". How does this work? Allstate is on the hook for $80K after receiving $0 premiums?
So you're claiming that the fruits of my labor are yours and vice versa? Ok, when are you going to pony up and start paying some of my personal expenses? Sorry about your wife's condition, it's unfortunate but I have my own list of charitable causes that I want to service with the fruits of MY labor and your personal wants/needs/problems isn't on it as I'm sure mine are not on yours.No, we're all in one pot.The present bill would add 14K per year to my wife's insurance because she has rheumatoid arthritis. .And some GOP House members will die with it.Prediction, The House passes it, it dies in the Senate.

Ummm.. there's a difference, I don't want anything that I didn't earn, in other words I never have nor would I ever expect anybody else to pay for my personal expenses under ANY circumstances because doing so is both indecent and immoral.However if you, Fox, ever got cancer and then had a change of employement, you would be a deplorable and uninsurable.
The interstate commerce clause denies that little operation...Selling insurance across state lines is NOT the same thing as being able to sell insurance in any state they wish.

GEICO can sell car insurance in any state they wish. NO health insurance company is allowed to do that.
They are prohibited by the McCarran-Ferguson Act.
The act only give the states rights it doesn't mean that state cannot enact laws to sell across state lines.
You and I have been paying for coal miner healthcare for decades....So you're claiming that the fruits of my labor are yours and vice versa? Ok, when are you going to pony up and start paying some of my personal expenses?
