As I was told by one of the anti folks, WE DONT CARE ABOUT YOUR PROPERTY VALUE GOING DOWN. Hand to God, the poster actually posted that.

GD, the only reason you attacked CC and myself in this thread is because all your preaching about how the tea party tells you taxes should be reformed has proved a dismal failure in the states of Kansas and Louisiana. And you hate that it has come to light.

First off, I do not look to the government for anything more then you do, things like roads, etc., nada, zilch. Second, I am not envious of successful people, my husband and I both were/are successful in our careers. In fact, the jealousy I have encountered has come from right leaners. And I mean, I have run into a lot of jealousy. Please retain this information because it is a fact so you can refrain from telling me how I am when you don't even know me. Cutting funding on education doesn't mean a reduction in quality? Not sure now you arrived at that conclusion. It is also untrue th

I take exception to Trumps slogan, about him making America great again, America always has been, and always will be great. You can buy the glorification of Trump but I will not.

It wasn't a very hard hitting interview. Seemed more like an entertainment interview than a political interview.

I agree. I also agree that it's a great recipe. Next time we have people over, I'm making it for a nosh.

Has her first prime time special, a la Babba tonight at 8:00. The Donald will be one of her guests. ETA, it's on Fox.

I don't understand the outrage about regulation on healthcare. We've already seen how the insurance companies would conduct business if left to their own rules. Just the pre existing conditions clause was enough of a brick wall for me. Think about all the diabetics in this country. It's not perfect but I'm convinced it's better than what we had. Politics don't belong in healthcare.

You must be proactive with your healthcare. Don't take no for an answer. This is your healthcare and you need to be diligent about it. Here is some additional info. On how to get around it. https://www.ehealthmedicare.com/faq-what-are-prior-authorizations-quantity-limits-and-step-therapy/?redirectFormHTTP Good luck.

Obamacare did not make them illegal. They made themselves illegal by not agreeing to provide coverage for coverages like pre existing conditions and lifetime limits. Not for nothing, the right did nothing about this when they had the chance, but once Obama got involved.......boy, all of the sudden.....they were a house on fire! I don't pretend to have all the answers but what I do know is that people should be cared for by the medical community and that care should not be based on profit. It's my bedtime. Have a good night.

My point is that you now have Medicare as well. When you were working you were part of a huge guaranteed pool of insurers so of course it would be lower. I doubt your premiums would have gone down when you had to go to the individual sector because of retirement.

Healthcare is different. Healthcare is very different. Healthcare is life and death and quality of life and needs to be regulated. Obamacare is not anything but regulation. Your coverage is still controlled by private enterprise. They either play within the rules or they don't. They are still making plenty of money. They just want more, more, more. Not when it comes to life and death.

Oh Jeeze.......for a second I thought you were posting about me and my heart broke a little bit. But you weren't, so it's all good.

No incentive? For doctors? Not clear on that. You are equating healthcare to clothes, auto insurance and grocery costs. They are the same?

How much did that have to do with your retirement?

I'm not sure everyone else is paying so much more. You look at the Internet boards and you see outrageous quotes from people. Not sure that's correct. Everyone seems to forget that premiums never did anything but increase. Healthcare will continue to increase until we tell them what they can and can't get away with. WE are writing the checks.

The rich will always get the best. Money talks and ........ The burden comes from the less fortunate and the less than less fortunate. I don't believe any healthcare professional would be willing to just let a person die. So, they need care. The way it was before worked so that those people would use the ER as their doctors. That's costs big money, big money. Under this act at least they would have a policy in place and would pay at least something, i.e. Tax refund towards their healthcare.

I agree that the VA is a joke. I am not convinced healthcare for the private sector is the same. So..........you want that the richest get the best healthcare? You think that's right?

Just seemed a bit curious that it happened now and not when you were telling folks that you could see the runway from a subdivision that's like down the road from me.

GD so run healthcare like auto insurance? Compete? For healthcare? Make it all about profits? For healthcare? Healthcare for profit is bad enough now, it doesn't need to get worse.

The money that comes from seasoned advisers. I presented a question, don't try and trap me into a back and forth that puts me into a position that confirms something that I am not willing to say.

First off getting all the states to agree to the same terms would be really tough. What makes you think it would work?

Pre existing conditions, lifetime limits, people not having to go into bankruptcy in order to have a quality of life with their healthcare expenses. Just because you haven't gone through this type of issue does not mean it doesn't happen. It does and we should have better in this country. Life.......it's a beautiful thing.

Well clearly they have gotten help with that Jibjar video. I would think anyway. Gee, wonder if it has anything to do with the election process going on.
