Obamacare

[Tim_T]

I had just heard on the news that our health insurance companies as of today, can no longer cancel a policy due to a policy holder having a major illness with a major expense. Well, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that means they will be paying out more claims. Hello! And who is going to pay for those claims? Yep, you and me and the rest of the working class people. They will raise the premiums in order to pay the claims and bank some profit. Doesn’t Nobama see these things? He must be deaf, dumb and blind, is all I can say.

Tim, am I understanding what you are saying? Do you mean to tell me that just because my wife and I have spent the last 20 years paying insurance premiums on the same plan, while rarely recovering anything (we are rarely sick so we rarely have to use our insurance) if myself or my wife got cancer or something that our insurance should be able to cancel us?

It doesn't sound right does it. I doubt you and I would get turned down our first time out....but over the course of time????? I'm kind of like you, I have healthcare coverage nine ways to Sunday but never use it. But you and I both know that insurance (auto, home, life, health) is one of the biggest rip offs there ever was. Check out ABCNEWS.COM...some insurance companies in the past have put caps on what they're willing to pay.
