160. It is difficult for me to read something when every other word is ...

FUCK.

As for losing people in one's life, I've had more than my share and I never said FUCK because any which one of them died, never.

ACA forces everyone to purchase from these same bad actors (for profit insurers) nt	Romulox	Jun 2014	#20
Incorrect.	riqster	Jun 2014	#28
OK. But the ACA also GUARANTEES fat margins for Aetna, the company you singled out...	Romulox	Jun 2014	#29
It also requires them to spend more on care, and less on denying care.	riqster	Jun 2014	#34
Every red cent that Aetna makes, they make from denying care. That's how they work. nt	Romulox	Jun 2014	#36
OK, so you are against the ACA? Yes or No?	riqster	Jun 2014	#37
The ACA LIMITS their margins	yodermon	Jun 2014	#74
Very good point.	riqster	Jun 2014	#84
And, a big chunk of the 20% goes for administrative costs, marketing, maintaining systems, etc.	Hoyt	Jun 2014	#101
