A doctor from South Africa that treats me on Obamacare is far better than a doctor that won't treat me, regardless of qualifcations.

Just great.

So that's what we're left with. And in the process ya'll managed to **** it up for everyone else involved.

So, yea. Wreck the entire system so as to make it "fair". Everyone is worse off for it, but indeed it's fair.

Dumbing down America, one socialist policy at a time.

But...It is not fair. How can it be fair for me to be forced to have to pay $740 per month for a 5k deductible plan? Basically Im paying close to 9 grand for the same crappy basic policy that before the ACA that I paid $3600 for. How is that fair?
...and please...no one try and tell my that policy would be 9 grand today without the ACA. No fcking way that would have happened...no fcking way.

Yea, rather poorly worded on my part.

I meant "fair" as in now we ALL get to experience the same crap coverage, no matter what we pay. I carried very good, what would be called "platinum" today, or what was vilified as a "Cadillac" plan for me, my family and employees. As if we were somehow getting away with something, to somebody elses detriment

NOW? Well, I'm apparently not supposed to be able to carry coverage any substantially better, or at less cost or lower OOP than the guy that mows my lawn and clips the shrubbery.

Cause that wasn't "fair" to him. It's his right to have the same insurance as I do, and if HE can't afford it,. well then I should pay for him, too.

Hope that helps. You and I are suddenly in very much the same situation. We must have really been getting away with something for all those years prior...
