Health isnurance for profit is AMORAL!

I find element of Brad's story incredible.

In 2014 he said this:





Compare that testimony with his statements in this thread.

I agree that his whining is very disingenuous, when compared to his support and pandering for the ACA; but like I said, just because Jarod is an ass doesn't mean his wife is a bad person.

There's no question regarding the character of his wife before us.

Let us focus on the apparent inconsistencies in the testimony of the accused.
 
Perhaps he is a psychopathic liar. Some people (like his idol HRC) have been known to lie about inconsequential things for no apparent benefit.

His motivation isn't the issue. It's not the intent of the accused we are examining, it's the facts of the case.

Fair point.

For the time being I will accept that his wife's breasts have betrayed her. I do however doubt his story about the insurance company not paying for a mastectomy. A mastectomy is pretty standard of care for breast cancer. It isn't like it is an investigational, non FDA approved medicine or procedure. So I have serious doubts about that part of the story.

The other thing I question is how Brad is choosing to spend his time right now. If my bride God forbid was diagnosed with breast cancer, I surely wouldn't be spending my time on a lowly trafficked message board. Would you?

I would be spending time getting her appropriate treatment. I would't wait for any insurance company to pay or not pay in order for her to get the treatment she needed.

I would like to send her my "thoughts and prayers", but the left said we aren't allowed to do that anymore.

There are many elements of the testimony of the accused that would reasonably cause suspicion.

True, she may not be a bad person, but one does have to question her judgement given who she chose to spend the rest of her life with.

On further reflection, I will send her my "thoughts and prayers". I also pray that her treatment is not delayed due to the frugality of her husband and the time he is spending on a lowly trafficked message board

How can they stop you? :dunno:
 
Me erring on the side of compassion, isn't going to be detrimental to me and is just good KARMA (IMHO).

I'll enter your act of humane compassion into the record, and I trust your kindness will not be disabused by the findings of this tribunal

Men and Women seem to stick with other people, regardless of what kind of ass they are; because of love and generally for what they saw in that person, in the beginning.
 
So don't move, and keep bitching about the price of medicine. :dunno:

What the fuck is wrong with you? My wife did not choose to get leukemia. Mccain did not choose brain cancer. It is an internet sport for an asshole like you, but healthcare in the US is a real and serious problem. Your flippant answers are so revealing about you. Bit you have no answers. Just smart as remarks.

Two separate issues.

Like I said - Just because Jarod is an arrogant, self-centered, self-righteous ass; doesn't mean his wife is one also.

But liberals said and supported the idea that the ACA was going to be all that and a bag of chips!!

Or is this now somehow Trumps fault? :palm:

I don't think anyone said that your wife "asked" to get leukemia.

Healthcare in the US is the best in the world. How we pay for healthcare leaves a lot to be desired. There are those who think that others should pay for their healthcare and that while they want all that modern medicine can provide, they don't mind rationing others care. It is basic human nature.

I have plenty of answers. Answers that would really work. But, I don't think you are interested in answers. I think you are interested in just complaining.

whatever you do, don't listen to Rat claiming Humira can be used for her leukemia. Nothing could be worse. It would be like adding gasoline to a fire.
 
Gentlemen, let us compare these statements made by the accused.

Before Obamacare she was uninsurable due to a PEC.

She was only diagnosed two weeks ago. I am saying when I left my job 9 years ago, we lost that insurance and were uninstallable due to other pre-existing issues.

We had Cobra for a while, until it ran out.

So why didn't you have insurance for her, BEFORE she had the PEC??


Why didn't you mention your wife's supposed PEC back in 2014 when you sang the praises of the insurance you boasted of having?

Silly was not relevant, but I really don’t care what you think.

Please note, gentlemen, that the accused has stated that his wife's supposed PEC was not relevant, yet in his earlier testimony, he included a specific reference to his own:

The ACA has helped me in three ways.

1) I was able to get insurance, previously I was excluded for a history of high Cholesterol.
2) My employees insurance, which I pay 100% of, went down about $300 a month.
3) My family's insurance went down $90 a month, and now I am covered.

Oh, and a fourth way.... Many more of my fellow Americans are now insured and that makes my nation more healthy both physically and financially. It takes the stress off the healthcare system and will lower medical care costs drastically in the long run.

1) That is true, I went without health insurance before the ACA passed. (Then I had a provisional program called the PCIP, and now I have regular health insurance)
2) I combined us all into one policy.
3) I got no subsidies.

If you're going to cry, I can allow a brief recess.

We have seen that before. Most reasonable people believe that Hillary should have divorced Bill for cause, yet she did not.
 
false corporatist fool.

Whiny little spoiled bitch. Can't take no for an answer?

You fuss because you say your insurance isn't paying what they contracted to pay, although you haven't shown proof of that contract, yet the thread is about health insurance for profit in a general sense.

Are you saying those that don't have a contract for an insurance provider should get coverage anyway?
