How did Romney put Trump in power? When did he ever make excuses for him or back him up? He’s on the record as saying:

“Their lords?” What does that even mean?

I was thinking the same thing. Romney’s been calling out Trump on his crap for a long time, pretty much ever since Trump announced he was running. He’s not some Johnny-come-lately to the anti-Trump camp.

How about allowing insurance companies to compete across state lines? That’s the number one most common-sense solution that isn’t being tried that would drive down costs very quickly.

Unless you have an open sore or other kind of dermal puncture on the part of your bum making contact with the seat, those toilet seat covers are just a placebo.

I genuinely hope so! Keep up the good work.

No. That’s not what I said. They told us they were going to make a change a couple of months before they made the change. I made no mention of when that change coincided with the new laws taking effect. We were well ahead of the deadline and they shopped around a lot, but our premiums still went up dramatically. The…

Sorry if I missed something in your post, but I’m in a hurry and your whole post seems to be based on a misunderstanding of what I tried to say.

THANK YOU. I wish more people would listen when people speak. It’s like some people put blinders on and won’t even consider contrary opinions. “Millions more insured!” What about the people that didn’t WANT to be insured? What about the people whose coverage was needlessly messed up because someone thousands of miles…

In my case it is attributable directly to the ACA. No one in the company was undergoing any sort of ongoing medical condition. The bump in premiums occurred as a direct result of us being forced to change plans because the plan we were all on and were all happy with wasn’t ok according to the ACA. In fact the company…

Yes, they were catastrophic coverage plans and that’s what I wanted. That’s what most healthy young people want, if they want coverage at all. I’d rather keep more of my money in my pocket every month and pay out more in the case of a major medical expense than to shell out hundreds upon hundreds month after month for…

It seems like a lot of people like the idea of “Question Authority” unless it happens to be their authority you’re questioning. I say question everything, but always be open-minded. As I’ve pointed out elsewhere, it doesn’t matter to me one little bit if a genuine transgendered person wants to use a particular toilet,…

From statements issued by the HR department/person at the time (which was an outsourced position handled by a professional HR firm) they made it sound like the plan we were all on wasn’t compliant with the new ACA requirements and they had to get another plan that cost more. I don’t know where you’re seeing…

I don’t pretend to understand the ins and outs of why they went up, but my company was not taking advantage. To the contrary. They ended up forking out tens of thousands of additional dollars every year to voluntarily cover a larger portion of the premiums their employees would be forced to pay. It was a small…

My wife always packs children’s ibuprofen and tylenol when we go on trips now because we’ve had twins get sick with a fever on a cruise ship before and those two medicines SAVED us by at least giving our kids a few less-miserable hours per day and a few hours at night where they could sleep.

Are they going to go up as much as they did back when the ACA passed? My premiums nearly doubled in the space of a couple of months and I was a healthy young student at the time. The company I worked for generously offered to pay a greater share of the premiums to help us out, but I still ended up paying hundreds more…

Well said. Obviously hospitals, doctors, pharma companies should make money commensurate to the value they add to the marketplace and consumers’ lives, but there is price gouging in a lot of places that should definitely be addressed.

They’re embiggening our premiums? Nooooooo!

If anyone ISN’T afraid of a nuclear war at this point it’s because they’re just ignoring the news. Seriously, people, get food, water, and cash to get you by for at least a couple of weeks. All it takes is a wide-spread power outage and suddenly you can’t use your credit card anymore. Do you have enough cash to buy…

There’s actually a simple fix for that.
