Yes racists mainly! > We have a supreme court justice that keeps saying so. http://www.theguardian.com/commentis...-supreme-court When will there be enough women on the United States supreme court? Supreme court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg says when all nine seats are filled by female judges: "So now the perception is, yes, women are here to stay. And when I'm sometimes asked when will there be enough [women on the supreme court]? And I say when there are nine, people are shocked. But there'd been nine men, and nobody's ever raised a question about that." Ginsburg's comments, which were made last month, ruffled some feathers – but "...but..." ?!?!?!?!? My God! |

Doesn't matter. It's not going anywhere unless I want to have potentially dangerous surgery. The body tissue grows them in place. Just like when you have cataract surgery, the body tissue grows over the edges. Janet US |

So how much is your annual premium? We paid nothing monthly until I got disability. And now I am required to get Medicare. Insurance costs nothing right now for husband and daughter. That will change when she turns 18. |

That's what the citizens who vote against their own self-interest don't understand. They are manipulated into thinking that the people who "can't" actually "won't" and they are *takers*. Never mind they are in the "taker" category, they have been brainwashed to think that Takers are someone else who deserves their scorn. To prove my point, all you need to do is Google which states TAKE the most Federal "handout" dollars vs how much they contribute in taxes and how many of them are red (Republican dominated) states. -- sf |

Is it safe to say then that it isn't the wealthy or the very poor that suffer with these costs, rather it is the middle class (or however you wish to refer to them) that's getting shafted here? |

That's why I'm grateful to have my husband's employer pay half the cost. The insurance company makes out like a bandit on me, since I consume virtually no health care services. They don't do as well with my husband, who has multiple prescriptions and numerous doctor visits per year. Cindy Hamilton |

Those ads are designed to invoke fear and make one think they should immediately (a) contact a lawyer or (b) bother their doctor even though last follow-up, you're doing very well. I keep seeing ads saying I should switch my car insurance. Liberty Mutual will give me new car replacement! Except I don't have a new car. Even if I bought one tomorrow I'm 99% sure I wouldn't crash it in the next year and need them to replace it. I'd like to know who they're writing auto policies for so I can avoid those people on my way to the grocery store.  Jill |

Not at all, it must be infuriating to the Taliban to see her on tv, getting a peace prize etc. |

It's the same one that I work for now. My health insurance was paid completely for family coverage by the company. Then when I became a single parent and needed more flexible time, I quit and started my own business. Health care started out costing me $85 per month for me and my daughter (suscriber and one minor) and deductible was only $100 per year for each of us. Co-pay of prescriptions was never offered either. Over the next 14-15 years, we rarely went to the doctor so the insurance company never paid a penny for out health care...not one cent. Even though we cost them nothing, they constantly raised the rates and/or the annual deductible every couple of years. When I turned age 50, the new policy jumped to $425 per month and $1500 deductible. Keep in mind too that we never even met the deductible so I was paying all that insurance money and getting nothing back. That's when I dropped it. I literally couldn't afford it. My ignorant father (who has govt. paid insurance help) mumbled that I couldn't afford NOT to have it. Idiot. I told him, "Dad, I can't pay the premium if it's not in my bank account." He had no clue since his was supplimented. So anyway, almost 20 years to the day, my business was hurting so I went back to the old company that gave me so many benefits. Father was out of it and his worthless son had taken over. Very little benefits since then. The son wants all the money for himself. He would make a good exec for Walmart. heheh I've gone almost 13 years now without health insurance. At my age, it's like playing "Russian Roulette." These are the very years that I should have it. I've "saved" a ton of insurance money (assuming I could have paid it, but I couldn't). Many people have employer provided insurance to some extent. They often run to the doctor for every little sniffle since they only have to pay $20 per visit and meds are cheap. These are the people that run up the insurance/medical costs. Anyone that doesn't believe me...go try to buy insurance on your own with no company co-pay. What ever they charge you, you'll get no returns unless some very serious hospitalization is required. Again though...I'm not sitting here wringing my hands and crying that it's not fair. Nobody owes me anything. I made my decisions in life (right or wrong). I make lots of sacrifices to accept and deal with my situation. I'm not resentful at all. And as I said, like many without insurance, I'll probably die someday for something stupid just because I can't afford to get it fixed. I'm just one of the worthless and the world will go on fine without me.. oh man! ;o Hey... :-D I take life one day at a time. |

If I had that procedure done and then see there's a class action law suit going on, I would at least ask my doctor about it the next time I went. Often, current medical procedures are found to be not so good down the road. No need to panic but I would still ask my doc about it. |

When Kennedy was running, because he was > Catholic, it was said that to vote for him meant that the Pope would > be running the U.S. The Kennedys were the US version of a royalty vote...the Camelot thing. In my tin hat thoughts though are that the US govt (the career govt agencies) didn't want them... JFK was a loose cannon, they had him killed Robert was next in line, they killed him too Edward was disgraced to win the presidency but was allowed to serve as a Senator for too many years. Then came JFK junior...he was looking too good to be a future presidential candidate. He died in a plane crash. I don't believe that was an accident It's just too ironic how ALL the Kennedy potential president candidates met an untimely death or scandal. |

I often see stats for the number of people in the US who have no insurance, people just like you, circumstances, and it is quite shocking to us anyway. Even though I know many like to point fingers at us and say it is 'socialised' health care, if it is, who cares. Stay healthy Gary, we made basically a similar choice. When David retired the Blue Cross he'd had all his working days (for frills really, things like a private room if in hospital etc) wanted to charge him $400 per month, lot of money then. So we decided he would drop it and just use what the gubermint supplied and I would gamble that I would stay in good health until I was 65. The gamble worked fine as it turned out. So now I pay $434 per year and that covers any drugs I might need, which could be very expensive. Bugger Blue Cross they took advantage of knowing what his medical condition was. |

A friend had a hip replacement light years ago, when they first started doing them, it was only later as a result of seeing notice of a class action against porcelain replacement hips that she knew anything could be amiss. When she checked with her doctor, he checked, found she did indeed have a porcelain one and she had another replacement before perhaps she fell and shattered the thing. |
