Wow, they sure do love their Bobby Flay cookbooks.
RA and MS? Jeez, I’m so sorry. Hope you feel OK.
And all of that while screaming that they’re christians and support a “culture of life!!1!” It’s fucking nauseating.
That’s what I don’t understand. We’re a society that means we take care of each other. We take care of others and in return get taken care of when we need it. Where does this whole everyone-sucks-and-I’m-the-only-one-that-matters attitude come from?
It’s deeply imperfect, and was known at the time as being deeply imperfect - it was even known at the time to be a modified Romneycare plan and a former Heritage Institute policy paper. It is a big fucking gift to Insurance companies... It was also meant to be a platform to build on and modify... It was also meant to…
Wow. Somebody who was negatively affected by the ACA and is actually sane, reasonable, and mature in their response to the impact? Are you sure you even exist?
I wonder if we would have more democrates in congress if politicians critized the failures of the ACA more. There are a lot of people who have valid issues with the ACA and, to my knowledge, no one ran loudly proclaiming an agenda to fix it*. I lose my access to health care in July. I’m on ACA but my husband’s job…
You nailed it.
Well of course, I found an old lamp and when the genie asked what I wanted I said “rheumatoid arthritis, MS, and a constant need to explain these conditions to everyone all the time.”
My kid was being monitored before birth for a few conditions (he’s fine), including one similar to what Kimmel’s son has. I was fortunate to have amazing health care at the time and paid nothing for all my prenatal monitoring. Under Republicans, had my kid been sick I could have a) gone nearly bankrupt for my prenatal…
I’m very much hoping President Kamala Harris will usher in a public option.
It’s hard to criticize the ACA when so many people want to take it away, but it really is a deeply imperfect thing. It’s amazing how people seem to think it’s a product of Obama’s “super-liberal” (he was a moderate) agenda, but it’s just a national version of Romneycare—which was the Republican plan for healthcare.…
Yesterday while I was getting my tires rotated, Fox News was on and they commentator was going on and on about how 5% of Americans use 50% of health care dollars and why should some healthy 25 year old pay for that? Well Dick, maybe because one day that health 25 year old will be a 57 year old with cancer who’s…
I used to work for a health insurance company, and I paid about $30 a paycheck for gold standard insurance. My coworker was a single mom with 1 child and complained that her coverage was about $80 a paycheck. It’s hard now to even fathom that was something to complain about once upon a time.
I was very privileged in my health care for a long time. My husband is in a labor union and had was is considered a Cadillac health plan. Unfortunately some rules in ACA would have imposed addiontal taxes on these types of health plans in a few years. This was meant to affect high income executive types and blue…
I have nationalised health care where I live now and couldn’t be happier with it. People see it as a public service (like the fire dept or police) which is how it should be. I feel sick even thinking about taking my kids back to the US just because of the healthcare situation.
I know we’re supposed to hate Jimmy bc he spoke out against the Gawker Stalker like a million years ago, but fuck that, I love him, he’s hilarious and charming, and kind, and I’m so happy his son is ok.
Lately I’ve noticed a lot of gay couples on House Hunters and some of the other shows, and I’ve wondered if it’s to offset this. To me Waco looks like a hellish place to live. Given the influence of Baylor, a heavily Christian university, I doubt it’s very welcoming to anyone is not heterosexual and Christian. But…
