Medical Savings Accounts?

[TankLV]

Of course, if you believe the average american makes $200,000 a year, no wonder the think people have spare change to put into a fucking saving acount!

Most people - I'd say a HIGH majority - have credit card DEBT, and have NO savings!

How the hell are we supposed to put money into a fucking savings account with money WE DON'T HAVE?!?!?!

1. See they want you to have 2000-4000 dollar deductibles to lower the

cost of health care for the companies. People making 8-9 dollars an hour can't afford it.

2. I have one

Do you know what it's like trying to get your money back? They don't want to part with it. Better yet, if you don't use it, you lose it.

3. They would make the individual deductible $2000-3000 instead of $10.

And every time I've seen them, the money is only set aside for one year - after that the insurance company gets it.

Just another scam.

4. They've been trying to push these on us for years.

They are designed for people who don't need much medical care and do have a lot of disposable income.

The Christian Coalition tried to push this a few years back, and the issue seemed to fade. Now Bush is recycling it -- oy! What a snake-oil salesman.
