Its a shame some people can't put themselves in someone else's shoes when pondering policy...but when faced with an emergency, then they get it.

But, whats worse is that about half the state s didn't expand medicaid,

Which means thousands are still stuck with no coverages and no way to get
it
Including this a**hole here in Florida, Gov. Med Fraud err Scott!

i was wondering how long until this fly showed up in the ointment...


maybe this will move us to single payer that much more quickly.
the law didn't get everyone covered, is too convoluted, and ultimately, too expensive.
and it's too expensive because there was nothing in the law to do a thing about cost.
we are a clear number one in cost of health care...but not even close to that in terms of actual care to our citizens.
put everyone on medicare.
thus, no more medicaid, everyone gets basic coverages, and insurers can sell supplements to whomever like they do now with seniors.
no more with care tied to jobs, no more with these crap corporations keeping their staff under 30 hours to avoid health care rules, no more bs with filing taxes and subsidies, and did you get married/divorced, have a kid, kid turn 18, get a raise-oh, you're making 1000 more a year, that'll cost you 2000 from your subsidy (yes, that happens).

I would like to find a breakdown of the uninsured state by state. I thought I read or heard that Louisiana was like 60% uninsured
