...the fuck?

"it's other peoples' financial burden"

You sound greedy. If money is your first priority, then I don't think you need to comment about health issues since your wallet will come first. Thinking about your wallet won't help people live healthy lives.

...or my household income is $90k a year so I'm in the tax bracket that got the hardest by Obamacare at the same time that Obamacare pissed all over the US Constitution and made my affordable healthcare illegal so now I'm getting fined for not having healthcare and can't get my insulin refilled and have a bill for $196k because I had to go to the emergency room when I went into a coma last month and probably have to file a chapter 11 bankruptcy. Yes, money and health and healthcare are very much tied together in my mind and right at the forefront right now.

I think anon is just bitter 'cause "Gub'mint stoled my punctuations!" :P

(...Seriously, to me, that comment reads like they're saying it all in one breath.)

More like I worked very hard to never be in this position and got fucked over in the extreme and my life literally ruined even though I COULD afford to get my insulin refilled but no doctor would see me because my president took my healthcare away.

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, so let's pretend that your story is true (it's not).

You do realize that this was happening to people who ALSO worked very hard to never be in that position before Obamacare was passed, right? People would get sick as shit and their insurance would drop them. A full 2/3 of bankruptcies in this country have been due to medical bills for years, and a decent chunk of those people were doing just fine financially before they got sick.

This is not a problem that was created by Obamacare. This is a problem that wasn't fixed by Obamacare. Important difference.

[(Anonymous)]

Right. Even healthy people can get sick, you know. There is no 100 percent way to prevent every illness, so it's pretty shitty to say, "lol fuck em for being poor, they deserve to die!" Because that's a shitty thing to say, and does make you shitty for thinking it.

[(Anonymous)]

Wait, what?

You can always pay out of pocket for a doctor's visit, if that's all you need for your insulin. $100 is much cheaper than hundreds of thousands of dollars. That's what I had to do when I was uninsured. I've never made anywhere NEAR 90K.

It's called taking responsibility for your condition. Which you're telling others to do, but not doing it yourself. Bravo.

[(Anonymous)]

...except you haven't been fined because the time frame to get coverage for people who've lost insurance due to this very issue has been extended multiple times now.

Also, I find it very hard to believe that you don't get insurance through your employer, given the sort of job you must have. I also kind it hard to believe that you've been charged $196,000, which is more than most people who go through chemo get charged.

You are making shit up. Stop.

[(Anonymous)]

Sell a couple of the Jags, bro.

[(Anonymous)]

This is a pretty astonishing argument to make from someone on the side of "you have a duty to take care of yourself b/c insurance means your health is a financial burden on others."

Because if your health insurance got cancelled, that means that it was almost certainly really, really shitty health insurance, not fit to purpose, and by your own logic it was appropriate to chuck you off it because it did not do its job of preserving your health and made you a financial burden on others. If your point of view is that taking care of health is a responsibility, then it is perfectly licit for the government to cancel an insurance program that does not accomplish that end. Sort your fucking arguments out.

(In addition to valid points made by others re: yr story)

[(Anonymous)]

Oh boo hoo. If you make $90k a year you can afford healthcare with no issues. Try paying $600/month on $35k a year because that's the only insurance plan that will accept you due to a preexisting condition... that's controlled by a generic drug that costs $10 a month.
