Hey Donald! I thought my prescription drug costs were going down. I just

[Raven]

got notice of an increase in my United Health Care Medicare RX plan from $60 to $80 a month. I assume other seniors go this happy news too.

1. Oh, that was just fake snail mail, tRump the Dofus will say. n/t

2. I change my Part D almost every

year because of this, Plans are scrapped, new ones come on-line from the same group of insurers. This constant monitoring so not to get screwed (if we can help it) is exhausting.

7. I have a real problem with it almost being a requirement to have an Rx plan.

I don't take any meds. I've been on Medicare for seven years. I knew that I could be penalized if I didn't carry at least a basic Rx plan as soon as I was eligible for Medicare. So I've been paying for a plan (yes, UHC's plan) for all these years and never used it.

8. Yeah, but that's how insurance works, right? Fortunately, there

is a 20-something dollar monthly plan in my area, not bad considering if one suddenly has a need it's there. If we could get it without penalty only when we needed it, costs would be exhorbitant. That was the argument with the ACA, folks not wanting to have to purchase it.

3. He just says he does things. He doesn't really.

All smoke and mirrors.

4. Two weeks.

He'll have a great plan in two weeks. (Until those two weeks are up, then it'll be another two weeks, etc.)

5. Oh damn

not yet we have not gotten this. Great.

6. Still waiting on that special tax cut for middle class that Donald promised just prior to

the 2018 mid-term election.

9. My mom has Obamacare. Her drugs went up from $12 to $36 a month
