    So if this plan is going to make premiums rise will you all support it just because it was done through republicans or will you reject it.

    There's more to paying for insurance than the premium. For instance, common sense says insurance should support wellness exams heavily; after all, if I'm actively looking out for my health before something goes wrong, its less costly for my insurance company to cover me, right? Last month, I paid nearly $700 out of pocket for a wellness procedure, after my doc told me, your insurance will likely cover this 100%. And they didn't even recognize it as going toward my deductable, which has doubled in the last 2 years.

    Honestly, I'm too busy working so that I can subsidize Healthcare for "the others" that I haven't had time to check it out. When I'm not working I damn sure not going to watch any of the shitty news and that includes fox. I did see where the GOP rejected the plan (as they probably should have) and I saw Randy Paul saying they won't approve any plan that keeps any part of the aca (as they should) so who knows.

    What will probably happen is like we have all said, once this thing took roots years ago it will be impossible to kill so we are stuck with it. Thanks Mobius. This shit is all your fault.

    So you don't think people with pre existing conditions should be covered? You're part of socialized medicine. What is your take on the military's care? Would you trade it?

    Look slappy, don't get cute with me and try to wordsmith. I wouldn't want to trade what I pay for my healthcare, an upgrade to the system would be okay. You libs don't understand redistribution of wealth and that is the premise of obamacare. It's bullshit.

    You and your politicians can't even come up with a plan to fix it. As I've said all along, it can't be fixed. Not realistically. I find it funny that you think that Healthcare was working before Obamacare. 10-20 percent increases annually. That's not sustainable. But who am I kidding. You don't want to talk about facts because as you just stated, you're ignorant to the issues. You want to pigeonhole me to a guy I never voted for and have insulted on this board for many of his policies, including Healthcare.

    Thanks for reminding me why I really don't post here any more. You don't want discussion, you want an echo chamber. Congratulations, you've got it.

    Oh Jesus, another one. All you libs have is pointing at shit in the past. If you were able to read you would see that I too said it won't be fixed. Mainly because none of them R or D can agree on who is going to let go of someone else's money. Oh and of course you didn't vote for him. No one did right? You just defend him at every turn to play Devils advocate. Got it

    LSU's baseball & basketball teams are playing and not a post on either game.
    Just the same old, tired bullshit discussions on politics.
