That's stupid (silly kinda stupid) because your premiums are already so freakin' high because YOU ALREADY ARE paying for the unsinsured.

You obviously don't understand the system we have right now and the systems being proposed.
The system being proposed by the Democrats will force people to buy their own health insurance. The government just negotiates the lower premiums with private companies by extending the same benefits those in Congress get to the average citizen. This helps insure that more people are covered and thereby reduce the costs being passed down to all of US in higher premiums. DUH!
Do you really believe you and I should pay for the uninsured in higher and every rising premiums?

I happen to know a little something about insurance, and when it comes to group coverage pre-existing conditions are not a reason to exclude someone from the policy. Typically, new employees have so long to join the plan. If they don't, then they have to qualify for the coverage. Also, there is a yearly open enrollment period for those who didn't sign up when they had the chance.

Most of the time it's just part of forum life, but lately it seems to have gotten more personal in nature. My guess is he's getting to the point that he feels defensive before he even posts anything because he knows someone is going to start calling him names.

Rico, in this thread on personal responsibility he refused prayer, requested a hand out and twisted the words of those opposing expanding governemnt to suggest that some here hate poor people.
THIS THREAD.
I just got here today so I cant tell you about other threads but it seems to me that current performance is some indication of past performance.
Ask DT he knows about that kind of stuff....

Again, I would reiterate what MOE said, it isn't what you say, but how it is said!
I think she gave wise advice.
