He did pay for it himself. How many years did he pay for the plan without access to it? Now he has access to it and is able to use it, and is still paying. on top of that, he is now paying about 96 dollars per month (I believe) to increase his coverage.
The average individual health insurance plan in the country runs 183 dollars per month, per individual.
Your 40K figure means That catastrophic event cant happen within 19 years of policy inception or insurance provider will lose money as well.
As to your hypocritical statements...nevermind...it isn't worth the effort.You would not see it even if I drew a picture.
You just want the system changed...you don't care how it is changed...just change it...oh, except tort reform and insurance competition across state lines....but it needed changed...anything...just not those issues.
You want the government to control health insurance...how has that added cost helped the EU? 1 country in default and several bailed out.....
There is no fix to this without changing how everyone does business. Period. There are ways to get your insurance cheaper. I work part time a couple nights a week and that covers my entire family's insurance as well as tucks a good portion away in a matching company 401 K.
You actually make more money than I do, based off your comments on this forum, and you whine about the premiums while I do not.
The reason....You outlook is a socialist mentality.
$183/month? Where did you come up with that BS number? My wife's group plan costs us almost $500/month. Talk about pulling stuff out of your rear.
I showed you the numbers. Average $50K/year for 30 years only comes up to around $40K total input into the system. Oooh, $96/month. Still wouldn't cover the costs of a major sugery. You're totally missing the point. That's the fallacy behinf Medicare. You have millions of people on it, and absolutely no way to fund it without the recipients paying more to supplement the costs. You're trying to defend current Medicare recipents, yet decry Obamacare that essentially is the same format with the exception that anyone signing up for that program will have to pay something to help circumvent the costs. Again, hypocrisy.
You keep talking about this magical health insurance plan that you have that gives you this great coverage, and now a 401K just by working part time. Please, please, tell me who this magical company is. We can use that as a model for your new healthcare reform plan. My daughter has interviewed with a multitude of companies here in San Antonio for a part-time job, and NONE of them have hinted or offered health insurance or 401K plans. I presume you're talking about Wally World?
You mean this great health plan?

Oops, looks like you're one of the lucky part-timers. Seems Walmart is now taking the Republican approach, and any new employees working 24 hours a week or less will not be offered any health insurance, and those working 24 to 33 hours can't include their spouse.
