Chaffetz: Poor people would have health coverage if they didn't spend money on that new iPhone

92. Total fucking idiot!

The cost of an I-Phone might cover expenses for 1 primary care visit, labs and x-ray, and a specialist consult, that's it, for the most expensive I-Phone! It would not pay for any treatment, any therapy, any rx costs. He's an ignorant rich congress-critter who obviously doesn't understand a damn thing at all about medicine. He probably pays less than the cost of an I-Phone for his coverage because he's got the Lexus version and we tax payers subsidize his and the rest of Congress' expense. He has no clue that a 3 day hospital stay can be $100,000 in patient costs but the insurance companies only would pay $3000 due to their favorable contracts. So, the consumer forgoes the phone and has the visits that pays for. What would they do to raise the other $100,000 it would cost them for surgery, therapy and drugs, not get them and die?

these folks are total retards, they don't know the facts and totally don't care as long as they help the rich and fuck us.
