    Well said. Too many like @Rex equate health insurance with healthcare. That is ass backwards and why the cost of healthcare and insurance is so ridiculously high. I've pointed out a growing trend....free market medicine. Take away the paperwork mandated by insurance and government and doctors can deliver care at significantly lower cost. Here's another article. Note it isn't directed at wealthy consumers but poor to moderate people who can't afford today's premiums or Obamacare charges. Maybe if we paid for healthcare maintenance out of pocket instead of having the false impression that insurance provides free services. If people used insurance as it was meant to be a support for catastrophic problems then both out of pocket and total costs would drop.

    In this country, unless you're filthy rich, having decent healthcare and having health insurance are synonymous. It's not a situation I want, but neither you nor LSUPride123 know wtf you're talking about. Before the ACA, 45000 Americans per year were dying due to lack of health insurance, according to a Harvard study. You've heard of Harvard, right? The most prestigious university in the country, and probably in the entire world? Yes, lack of health insurance causes deaths that can be avoided.

    You lie, the very study you cited did not make the claim that lack of insurance caused the deaths. Fake news!



    I moved to an HSA account and noticed my doctor visits are much lower when I pay in cash from my HSA account. I moved my insurance plan to a high deductible. Basically for major/costly events.

    In a perfect world, I would select the exact coverage I want to cover serious costly emergencies and pay for the rest out of pocket, but you know, the GOVERNMENT wont let me.

    Put it to you this way. I have a wife and three kids; 8, 6, and 2. This past year I only paid $1,300 in doctor visits I didnt claim (Cash Price). Nothing major. THAT is doable. Its not doable with you add in the monthly premium I pay so I wont get fined.

    A catastrophic plan for a family could be as low as $50 a month if the government got the fuck out of the way. Instead they are forced to cover ALL VISITS....

    The world is getting top-heavy with govt dependents. Nothing wrong with pulling the plug on some things and let nature do what it do.

    War on children? Hey you genocidal Nazi socialist marxist ass since 1973 over 50,000,000 innocent precious children have been destroyed by genocidal heartless pricks like you. Your side worships racist Margaret Sanger who not only started the infanticide movement but called for increased infanticide for the poor and in particular blacks. You come here talking about a "war on children" yet infanticide pushed by your party happens every second.

    Want to know how I KNOW you really don't believe that abortion is infanticide? Want to know how I KNOW that you're full of shit? Don't you have guns? Haven't you on multiple occasions said here that you need your guns to fight government warfare against its citizens? Or to fight liberals who want to take away citizens' freedoms?

    So, with that background, do you want to know how I know you're full of shit?
