Who do you think is going to pay for those extra people insured? Look in the mirror because it is you. Dont feel bad though because a bunch of perfectly heathy 18-25 year olds now have coverage because of you!

Sorry. Nice try. But those healthy 18-25 year olds are being paid for by their parents insurance premiums. Not you.

Oh so everybodys daddy is paying for them now?

Now if this is true AND the HMO's are forced BY LAW to spend 80% of their income on patients then why exactly are they raising premiums? Oh that right because they were the ones behind writing the laws so that they had free reign to raise rates as much as they wanted. So essentially the average working person gets a huge increase in their premium, a bunch of people who dont need coverage get covered, HMO's are making a ton more income so their bonuses stay the same or go up despite the new law and fools praise this as a great deal...

The ultimate irony is that as 18-25 year olds increase coverage (despite little need for this age bracket) the 26-35 age bracket has less coveage than they did 2 years ago. So a group that needs coverage more is less covered. Brilliant

Yup. They can't afford private health insurance. And people like you sure as hell don't want them to get health benefits through their freeloading public service jobs.

Single payer.

People like me? Who is that? People who understand that nothing is free and that the someone who is going to pay is me? People who understand that in a world where people 26-35 are decreasing coverage and 18-25 are increasing in coverage, things arent getting better but they do cost more.
People like me who are sick of people like you telling us that we should be happy to pay more or "sacrifice" for the people who arent coveredand if we arent then somehow we are bad people because we dont agree with your socialistic view of the world? People who understand that single payer is an impossibility in this country unless we REALLY soak people who own businesses or kill the vast majority of personal injury lawyers? Or change laws that REDUCE the rights of citizens?

In Riot's world everything is for free! Just don't work, buy a house you can't afford, sit on your couch all day (or set up a sex tent in a public park) and the government will take care of it all paid for by those criminal rich people!

Nope. Not in the least.

I know your victim whine doesn't work unless you falsely characterize those you wish to demonize. You should try taking your own advice, and stop blaming everyone else for your little discomfits in life.

People like you who whine that they are paying for stuff they aren't. And bitch and moan about others, before they even have a clue what they are talking about.

But hey - why let truth or reality get in the way of what you "know".

So who is paying for it?

You live in a dream world where Barak Obama is one of our greatest Presidents (your words more or less), every GOP politician is on Koch Brothers payroll, every OWS person arrested was "brutalized", Unions are good for people other than those actually IN unions, etc...

Nope. Private insurance, paid for only by the insured.
