He is a very poor graduate student. His university requires that all students have health insurance, and if he cannot prove to them that he has insurance they will put him on their school insurance (at a cost to the family of $1,033).
Is it possible to get insurance at a lower cost than this? He really can't afford it since Iheonly earn $7,000 annually. How would I go about "shopping" for health insurance? Any piece of advice.
He can get it for himself with a subsidy. None issue, Teddy. Nice try!
Who will pay then?
None issue, Teddy. Step along.
Hey I hope nobody treats my issues that way.
I am struggling to stretch my salary to pay for all kinds of support for two communities
recovering from damages and abuses at the hands of govt. How are those costs any less
important to public security and RIGHTS and equal protections of the laws as health care which can be donated.
Saving the historic structures in my district to create a campus for PROVIDING accessible sustainable health care
is just as much needed to set up long term coverage for the public especially those who can't afford current plans.
Why aren't my expenses paying for that counted as my contribution? Why am I only allowed to buy INSURANCE as the ONLY WAY to qualify for exemption from a tax penalty (that will threaten to take money from two jobs needed to pay OTHER needs for families and volunteers). Health care is not the only urgent need.
If you cannot even pay for housing and cars to work and serve to rebuild our community after it has been decimated by wrongful evictions, demolitions, and desecration of burials and other historic landmarks,
why should we be forced to pay for corporate insurance we can't afford when we have more urgent immediate needs to pay for?
What about our Constitutional rights to assemble in secure, stable conditions, to use our salaries to FEED children in our neighborhood, and to cover costs of volunteer programs, in order to exercise our rights and freedoms.
I only saw one other mention of anyone bringing up the issue of other needs that the same salaries pay for.
Is anyone even listening or caring how this is affecting low income volunteers whose communities are riding on their salaries?
JakeStarkey are you really going to tell me this is a nonissue? Just "let them eat cake?"
