....For the second time in as many years.
We got letters in the mail stating that Kentucky Health Co-op was shutting down and our policies would not be renewed in 2016. This was after getting letters about double digit rate increases.
Now, for me to insure my family, it costs more than my mortgage payment every month. If I DO use the policy, my share is $6800 in deductible... a year....so BEFORE my "affordable care" pays the very first dime of claims, I will have spent the equivalent of the sticker price of a brand new Hyundai.... every single year.
What an ignorant mindset that produces the "progressive" ideology that has now made it more profitable to be destitute than to be middle class. Math was never their strong suit. How long do they honestly think folks will go on slaving away to carry the burden for everyone else?
The ACA is organized Thievery. Nothing more, nothing less. Those of us in the middle class pay twice over. I now pay 400% more in premiums and deductibles and on top of this, my Liberal Overlords are printing more cash by the second to loan out to prop up the Health Insurance industry thereby increasing Inflation and lowering the purchasing power of my EARNED WAGES.
I would be better off quitting my skilled trade and get a job at MinimumWageIncorporated. Then I can get food, rent, and healthcare subsidies and I can spend my $1000 a month in wages on XBox, IPhone, WiFi, Cable.
I wonder what these complete fools are going to do when the min wage hits $15 an hour and their $400 a month healthcare subsidy turns into $20 a month. Or zero.
Its hard to look my kids in the eye and say 'Go to College' or even 'Stay in school'. If I had known I would be punished for being driven and working hard to get a degree or learn a trade, I would have quit highschool in 1984 and surfed out of my van for the next 30 yrs. WTF is the point in trying anymore? Being successful no longer is a source of pride. Success is now the scapegoat for the world's problems. It reaps resentment, envy, accusations, venom, and financial punishment from our "leaders" and our victim classes alike.
I've seen a fundamental shift in this country of our mindset. We scorn competition and intellectual property and then expect people to still be innovative and productive even when it can't be sustained financially. Because Altruism. A Socialist thinks that the poor don't have the benefits of material wealth because the rich are hoarding all the cash. At least this is the pile of dookie they sell to the public. Socialists KNOW that nothing comes free so they always suggest that the labors of the skilled and driven ("priveledged" according to some) be used ("redistributed") to finance the whims and poor decision making of the unskilled or lesser driven ("under priveledged").....when this doesn't work, the hard line socialist resorts to merely lowering the living standards of ALL people ("equality") so that when nobody is jealous of their neighbor anymore because the whole neighborhood is starving and destitute (like the USSR) they can claim Victory and Equality for all!
Equally broke or equally prosperous. The only word they are interested in is Equal.
How long before poor folks stop making deals with the devil at the polling booth? How long will the middle class let themselves be robbed and vilified? How long before someone figures out that we have had a National minimum wage since 1938......and yet there is still poverty. Its been raised time and time again. The wage may change but poverty remains. Socialism has been tried time and again and yet poverty is the result not only for the citizen but their government s as well. The end result of every socialist program or government is always bankruptcy. There are no current Socialist success stories and even the best managed are deeply in debt the world over. When do people realize how fruitless this idea?
Besides, you can't blame the rich for hoarding money. Our money is infinite according to your Federal Reserve and the presses have been churning out worthless ducats since lord knows when. You can only hoard what is finite and the dollar hasn't been finite in decades. I know of nine trillion pieces of proof to this effect.
