64. I am sick to death that no one cares to end the suffering
Fri Sep 27, 2013, 12:02 AM

Just because they won't be among the majority of people the insurance scams will be nearly impossible to afford to use.

It is good that people that can afford the co-pays and deductibles such as yourself and rich liberals get to save money.
It is incredibly great that more very poor people will be able to get actual care as well (a liberal not conservative insurance first idea - Medicaid).

I am sick to death of fighting conservative Republicans and wealthy conservative liberals that are just fine with the majority of work for a wage people living from paycheck to paycheck not being able to afford the care because of the need of insurance to collect a premium and charge thousands a year in addition from any one that dares try to receive care. You pretend to not know such people just don't have the money to give them and can't borrow it anymore so will simply go without care! Or maybe you don't know such unwashed people and really are that clueless about the complete lack of money left over after the bills are almost but not quite payed, we can't just go to the bank like you you know.

Selfish conservatives just don't care because they will have more to spend on a second suv and a trip to wine country, the rest of us just don't matter to any of you do they?

The only thing truly good to come of this is that the very poor, will benefit.
It is Nice that well to do suburbanites that can actually afford the deductibles and co-pays save money, nice, but not the great accomplishment you think it is as it is actually bad for the majority of ever increasing working poor that will have to be fucked to save you money.

People like you are dancing on my wife's grave as far as I see it, I am glad those not in the suburbs amuse you with the fact that although they are the majority, they will only be able to afford the premiums and not the care. Keep applauding that and hating me for daring to mention how your beloved insurance companies destroyed my life, you are merely annoyed by that and prefer to just pretend it was a minor imperfection and tho the destruction of lives will continue apace, you enjoy the fun of lecturing me for mentioning it and not being happy the same things will continue to destroy millions of lives.

It is clear to me it is a class issue, and being below the suburbanites, we simply don't matter and you have the nerve to applaud that we still won't and don't matter to your class.

People in your class are incredibly selfish and uncaring, but at least our misfortune can bring a smile to your face.
