Republicans may support universal healthcare if abortion is explicitly excluded

I'm wondering how many people who are for the Obam-care program... or Gov. controlled Healthcare in general are prepared to pay higher premiums within a year?

*please respond I want to know what you are thinking

My premiums are already on their way up, 9%.

I'm starting to actually have evil thoughts against all of you who sit on your high horse with your employer provided coverage.

I'm not on a high horse.

Me neither. My horse is quite low. Sickly, in fact. Poor thing doesn't have insurance. But I don't sweat it. There are other horses out there. When this one dies or becomes otherwise unable to provide me with the services I desire, I shall simply cast it away. I have the right to be serviced as long as I can pay for it, with that right comes no obligation to tend to past horses in my employ.

Rising premiums are a fact of life. Actual increases tend to be in the double digit percentages, employees usually see 10% or less because employers have been absorbing the rest.

That they are. Which is why our coverage limits are going down.

Pretty soon they will be selling portable chemotherapy kits in CVS so you can self-treat the early stages of most cancers.

Well, my husband has employer-provided health care, for the entire family, which has saved us, because my company's health insurance just increased TWENTY ONE PER CENT..... We are very fortunate to be able to drop the kids from my insurance and put them on his. However, should he lose his job or the insurance change, we won't have a choice but to go back to mine.

Not even... I'll just start using lab kits that say NOT FOR CLINICAL USE for clinical use.

Wow... 20%.

So that Socialist Obama's plan would end up costing even more through the life of those terms?

Answer:

Nope.

I do not believe that health insurance will be more expensive if a government option is added to the mix as proposed, much less if a single payer system was adopted. All indications from international comparison suggest that the fractured, incomplete, inefficient and profit driven system we are currently enslaved to comes with the heftiest price tag possible. Rising premiums are a given if we continue on the path we're on. I'm not prepared to keep sitting around and accept the unacceptable.

You don't want to pay the very people tasked with the job of keeping you and your family healthy?

They should reinstitute the USSR for commies like you.

Not a bad idea...

Or at-home ultrasound kits... Do-It-Yourself MRIs...

They could even sell it in the $1 stores.

At home ultrasounds. That would be fun if your kid had some horrible defect. I saw one of the cases on thefetus.net where amniotic bands had decapitated the fetal head. Things I had no idea were possible. Thanks interwebz!

Seriously though...

In other countries where you can buy birth control & commonplace antibiotics & topical medicines over the counter... it is pretty helpful when you know what you need and are able to get it w/o seeing a doc...

What's an amniotic band?

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

It's the band you decapitate fetuses with.
