Discussion: What If There's No Affordable Health Insurance To Buy?

coming soon… RepubsNOcare… unaffordable, limited coverage, not offered in your area…

No, no, no. Access to plans across state lines will allow everyone to purchase RaceToTheBottomCare. High rates, low coverage but better than nothing…Or not.

Trump supporters…you are so easy to con that Donnie and friends will have your house, your boat, and your car before you wake up!

The solution for the bottom 90% in healthcare: Medicare for all based on an income adjusted scale…and placing the President, his staff, the congress, and the SCOTUS under the same plan that everyone else gets!

The median household income in US is something between $40 and 50K/yr, say $4K/month. It household = 2, then per capita is about $2K/mo. Half of Americans earn less than $2K/ month.

after losing money. "

Given the truly astonishing cost of health insurance, I need to understand why insurance companies can be losing money. Any health insurance representatives here who can speak up?

This article lays out the best argument to take insurers out of the equation. They are not reliable and only have a profit motive that drives their decision making. Single payer is the only equitable solution.

Simple solution to ACA problems.

Raise subside levels.
Increase penalties for not having insurance.
Lower the age of Medicare eligibility to 60.

Will it happen? Not until we have a Democratic Congress.
