What happens when a person can't afford health insurance that the law now requires?
Answer:
They don't buy insurance, and end up getting slammed with a tax at the end of the year. Obamacare taxes the poor.
What happens when a person can only afford a plan with the highest possible deductible, in order to keep their monthly premium down?
Answer:
They can't afford to actually use their health insurance, because they have a little to no disposable income. Thus, they cannot afford the deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance costs associated with actually going to the doctor. Obamacare directly imposes financial hardships on low income people, which they cannot even benefit from.
What happens when a person can't afford to pay their deductibles, but they have an emergency medical problem and end up in the ER?
Answer:
They don't have the money, so they don't pay. Obamacare does absolutely nothing to address the problem of increasing costs of health care due to poor and low income people fail to pay medical bills.
So how is it exactly that Democrats can justify supporting this monstrosity?
Premiums cannot exceed 9.5% of income.
Are you suggesting that these people should remain uninsured?
prior to the ACA, they had healthcare available to them at the ER and other emergency clinics....at no cost to them.
We, the tax payer was fine with the cost to the taxpayer.
So enough with the "remain uninsured" crap. They may have not had insurance, but we, as a society made sure they had healthcare.
Do you disagree with this?
Absolutely. It is shortsighted thinking bordering on retarded thinking.
