Of course the KGOP "guarantees" coverage for pre-existing conditions AT 1000 times the price !!!

Which ... SUMMARILY .... kicks people like me off the insurance rolls cause I can't afford 20,000 a month for HCI !!!

These bastards !!!

They KNOW... KNOW some people will go into the "I got mine, sorry... die quick, ok" mode if they hear someone gets kicked off the rolls because they can't afford their insurance.

The M$M should be pinning the KGOP to the wall on this BUT the M$M mostly exhibit why most politicos think they're worthless; most of the time they're less informed than the avg political forum poster.


The KGOP is the party of treasonous bastards !!!

in my experience, most people don't understand this particular principle AT ALL. Definitely the M$M doesn't get it and folks that get insurance through an employer or use Medicare often don't get how devastating repeal of pre-existing condition protections will be for so many of us. The cruel joke of this potential repeal will be that IF it occurs, pre-existing condition protections will be repealed for EVERYBODY, not just folks buying their insurance through the ACA marketplace. Insurance corporations will jack up premiums and deductibles for anybody with insurance. While it will hit those of us who are not afforded the luxury of insurance through work or have Medicare very hard, it will hit everyone, make no mistake about it. Very large corporate entities will be able to negotiate better premiums but MOST businesses and individuals will see much higher premiums and deductibles. It will be a disaster for millions more than those who use the ACA for insurance. Even if you don't use the ACA marketplace for insurance, the basic principles of the ACA protect you anyway. We should all be fighting this repeal and demanding that it be improved and built up to be better.

Bottom line, Congress should not be afforded the benefit of health insurance paid for by the taxpayer. They have not earned it. These ungrateful bastards on both sides of the aisle don't even work full time. THINK about that people. They don't work full time and they have the finest health insurance offered anywhere. CALL THEM OUT ON IT.
