How Insurers Are Hiding Obamacare Benefits From Customers

That's a separate issue and not necessarily an accurate portrayal of the consequences of such a policy.

 

So specifically what are your objections to the talkingpointsmemo.com article?

 

It is drawing entirely false conclusions because they have no supporting data. There are numerous instances of people loosing great coverall policies out there. Pick one and I will use it to conclude that Obamacare is there solely to tax people for a reduction in health care. That is as absurd as your article.

 

I told you before...I don't read cut/paste Liberal shill articles. I'll never get those minutes of my life back.

 

So, you've verified this is true? You've spoken to the lady or are you simply taking the word of the author? Anecdotal at best & we all know what you think of anecdotal evidence, don't we?

 

Try opening your mind just a little. Let a crack of sunlight in. The truth shall set you free. Amen and halleluiah!

 

So you've moved from the picture now? Good for you. It's a start.

 

Simply moving along with you....searching for any shred of evidence that would indicate there's any truth to the story. I gotta say, it's not looking good for you at this point.

 

Joe, How do you relate Responsibility to Privilege?

 

How do you equate Responsibility to Greed?

Money doesn't make you more responsible. Money doesn't make you a better American. Money doesn't make you a better human being. Money doesn't make you a better Christian(worse in fact). It only makes you richer. None of that translates to being more "responsible".

Money is a funny deity to have. Jesus would totally agree with that.

 

Really depends on your ability to actually read doesn't it?

 

Yep, I what I read from you & your far left blogs really set off the BS meter!

 

Question for you all, why can you not sell across state lines? That has to be anti compition right there?

 

Each state has their own insurance regulations. The US Government could standardize insurance industry regulation under the Commerce Clause of the US Constitution, but that doesn't appeal to Democrats. Once you get past all the rhetoric, you'll discover that the Democratic party in the United States is run by, and for the benefit, of trial lawyers. Free market competition and Tort Reform to a Democrat is like garlic to a vampire.

 

This is kinda confusing to me. A policy that complies with all Federal Mandates are not necessarily compliant with in all respects to every state mandate. Once policies are sold beyond state borders then those policies would have to be universally compliant. The only way this could be accomplished is by building a policy based on the strictest mandates for each aspect aspect from every state.

 

Insurance was rule not to be interstate commerce. The federal government only has a say in interstate commerce and the states control there own intrastate commerce. Each state with their own rules. That is why it is so confusing how Obamacare ware rule constitutional or at least so far.

 

Interesting...I thought the Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare designated healthcare as interstate commerce. I stand corrected.

 

You missed it. I am not sure just how they ruled on health care (if they did), but insurance is not yet counted as interstate commerce. That is the only way states can control it and each state have their own insurance commission/agency.

 

...or ask the Governors of each state to work with each other and their respective Legislatures to develop a regulatory standard that can be adopted nationwide. Perhaps not something that will produce results right away, but it can't hurt getting folks talking...beyond the Federal level.

I realize this may sound like crazy talk, but if some adjacent states (e.g. New York and New Jersey) can develop a standard between themselves, perhaps other adjacent states (e.g. Connecticut or Pennsylvania) might see the benefit of evolving toward a similar standard...over time.

 

US vs South-Eastern Underwriters ?
