FRACK Health Insurance Companies. I hope they "get sick" right now, die quick,

and I'll be right there to spit and dance on their stinking grave.


We desperately need a public option single payer universal health care system. Nothing else will do.

I just spent the last 2 1/2 hours on the phone with the 3 insurance companies with which I (supposedly) have coverage.

They are inefficient, full of shit (outright lying), vague, doublespeaking professional rip-off artists.

After 2 1/2 hours, I still have not gotten a straight answer from these mealymouthed weasels.

I'm now on a mission; totally on the warpath against these greedy lying scum. I swear I will not give up until either I'm dead or we have universal public single payer healthcare in the United States and these greedy lying crooks are out of business.

I have been blessed with health that has not required me to go toe to toe with the evil insurance companies (yet). I've often wondered how people with serious illness can possibly muster the strength necessary to deal with insurance matters. I truly think that the insurance companies know that their tactics result in many just saying to hell with it..... thus allowing them to get by without paying many legitimate claims.

Get a congress that will sign-on to single payer, or even a public option, and we'll get there.

I know this from personal experience, I refuse to applaud giving them full control of our system rather than doing something about actual health care.

Insurance reform is just another name it would seem for feeding the vultures your own constituents, It had/has nothing to do with fixing health CARE.

Just trying to get straight answers out of these forked tongue snakes commonly called health insurance companies is like trying to rope smoke. They need to be eliminated from public concern.
