Hell, why stop there.
Mine is a sophomore in college, he can always use a little extra spending money.
Who new leftists were so generous with their own funds.
History tells us that wasn’t always the case.
Same with unions and female production rights…
If I remember correctly that poster has complained here often about being poor, so I don’t know where he is going to get the money to pay. It’s almost like it was nothing more than a talking point by someone who is likely to be on the receiving rather than the distribution end of wealth redistribution.
Well no…that wasnt my point and you know it…knock it off…
Do you feel the same was about Medicare coverage? Most recipients will receive far more in benefits then they contributed. Is this not wealth redistribution?
He’s not poor, and you’re suddenly pretending that paying insurance premiums, which the company will use to pay other people’s health care, should include paying your co-pays and deductibles. That’s ridiculous and you know it.
Should Medicare cover pre-existing conditions? If so, why?
If you don’t want to pay for other people’s kids on your company’s health insurance plan - you can drop your coverage and buy an individual plan just for you and your spouse. Problem solved.
I can’t wait for the day the Cons do away with that provision of ACA, along with pre-existing condition provision. That wouid be some Winning!!!
I think the age needs to be raised substantially, until it is no longer in the red.
Yes, we know, that’s why it was so important to democrats after all, it gives them one more way to buy votes.
It’s in the red because many of the recipients have expensive, pre-existing conditions… Should we not cover pre-existing conditions with Medicare?
Short term plans have been around prior to ObamaCare and afterwards. They are less expensive for some and make more sense financially. There are actually some pretty good plans, but you have to study them, what is and is not covered and do the financial math, weight the pro’s and con’s.
No, it’s in the red because when it was initially established, the age at which it began was pretty close to the average age most people died. It was supposed to care for the aged and infirm who were no longer capable of working, not last for thirty years for many people who are perfectly capable of working.
So we should raise the age to what? Why do we cover pre-existing conditions with Medicare? Should we charge those with pre-existing conditions more?
Another winner of an idea by a Con.
Insurance companies are not run by dumb people. They are not in the business of losing money.
Who is going to sell insurance to old people that isn’t exorbitantly expensive?
We have Medicare for that very reason. No one would insure them.
Notice how the the thread became all about how awful short term insurance is and what appear to be people calling you a bad father.
I think some of the outrage is more about the threat of giving choices back to people and undermining ObamaCare. Protecting the “people” from themselves as the government knows what is best for you.
Perhaps even a lack of understanding of short term policies and what they cover depending upon the plan you select, co-pay and max out of pocket.
Not everyone wants to pay for preexisting conditions (because they don’t have any) and all of the ACA requirements.

Trumpsters and the GOP who abhor the idea of poor people getting good healthcare.
Let’s just rename Medicare Trumpcare and then say Trumpcare for all. Trumpsters would get on board in a heartbeat.

I don’t want to pay for preexisting conditions of Medicare recipients… Should be eliminate preexisting condtions from Medicare?
Hmm. Sounds like you did your research and made an educated decision all on your own 
Yes, because offering someone who doesn’t have a preexisting condition a healthcare policy that doesn’t cover a preexisting condition, is the EXACT same thing as predatory lending that the ALMIGHTY big brother did nothing to stop.
I guess if ■■■■ was tied up in a big ooe socialist bow some of you would be asking for seconds.
