Regarding "rolling back the healthcare bill"

[SHRED]

Which part(s) do the Pugs plan on "rolling back"?

“Are the repubs going to tell seniors that they can't have free colonoscopies and mamograms and other preventative medicine?

Are they going to proudly open the doughnut hole back up?

Are they going to tell the person trying to survive cancer that her high risk pool is gone and she must now stop treatment?

Are they going to bring back lifetime maximums on benefits?

Are they going to bring back yearly maximums on benefits?

Are they going to get rid of the yearly out of pocket maximum?

Are they going to bring back co-pays for mamograms?

Are they going to bring back co-pays for colonoscopies?

Are they going to allow insurance companies to cancel your coverage as soon as you get sick, again?

Are they going to allow insurance companies to kick adult children off of the family plan, again?

Are they going to allow insurance companies to deny children coverage, again?

Are they going to allow insurance companies to deny people due to pre-existing conditions, again?

Are they going to remove the requirement for insurance companies to spend 80 cents of every premium dollar on actual care?

Are they going to make congress use the same plan they give us, as the democrats did? Actual language in the bill says congress will use the new exchanges.”

4. my husband said they are increasing the cost of health insurance at his work.

$230 every two weeks for a plan that has a high deductible before they pay 80/20. they cited specifically the healthcare law as their reason. which i call as bullshit. just using it as an excuse. we are on the state health insurance thankfully, family health plus with kids on child health plus and medicaid for the youngest two. bob and i had a nice discussion about this.

11. Anthem and Kaizer reps came to my workplace

The Anthem rep said the same thing.

This in direct violation of the empty and hollow "threat" from Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius;

"Writing to the head of America's Health Insurance Plans, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said insurers that hike rates for consumer unjustifiably may be locked out from the state exchanges due to be set up by 2014. These exchanges will be the primary means by which small groups and individuals will purchase coverage. Being excluded from these marketplaces could be devastating to insurers."

LOL...apparently Ms. Sebelius doesn't understand who runs the show.

5. Yes

because all those things cost their corporate masters money.

6. Most or all of it.

Is this supposed to suggest that they wouldn't dare doing those things?

Sorry, but they would dare. They would dare in their sleep and twice on Sundays.

7. They had better do all of that, or I will be disappointed.

That is what they ran on, that is what the majority of the voters seem to what, and damn it, I think they should keep their promises. Maybe that is what will save this country from all our ills and make bubble come out of all of our asses.

Sorry, folks, I'm a tad disgusted right now.

9. If that's what their corporate owners say,

that's what they will do.
