My insurance has been going up since the first Bush was in office. Obamacare may have sped up the process for some but this isn't some new issue


Mine went up $12 over the course of 4 yrs, before Obamacare. In one increase, this past January 1, it went up 58% and tripled basically, my deductible and yearly out of pocket.

The reason? Because everyone has to be entitled to pediatric services and maternity, nevermind I am not married and have no children. Forward with entitlements though.

My company doesn't buy me condoms.

I guess you shouldn't feel so entitled to have cheap insurance amiright?

So women shouldn't expect reasonable coverage for insurance they pay for at least in part. Damn those entitled women.

I pay 100% of my insurance. Why should I have to carry insurance on pediatric and maternity when it will never, ever become an issue? Why should my carrier and myself be FORCED to do away with an agreed to plan in place of one that is more expensive?

Reasonable coverage. Reasonable gun control. Reasonable speech. Everything is relative to one's own reason. When it infringes on others, it becomes unreasonable. Healthcare isn't a right, and it isn't something that employers should be forced to provide. Employees have the freedom to find jobs that provide them with the benefits they want. Or they can remain at the jobs they are at and accept what is offered to them, above and beyond their compensation for their services.

Just pay for the birth control and you don't have to worry about those.

I'm not married and I don't have kids either. Like anything else, sometimes there are things you have to pay for as part of the package when you don't want to.

Don't really care about the issue, but do not like any ruling that exempts any company from any law due to any religious beliefs whatsoever.

Pretty much all Feminist-driven policy is about extracting resources from all men, and giving them nothing in return. This frees up women to take no self-agency in most areas.

You know, like taking responsibility for yourself, paying for your own contraception, etc. How dare you expect female adults to pay for their own contraception, you fricking Nazi.

Again, my insurance provider and myself had contracted a plan that didn't provide those 2 things and both parties were happy with it. So, why.. should I now be forced to pay for it?

The funny thing about health insurance is probably 90% of what it covers you'll also never use.

So, your argument is "life isn't fair, deal with it"?

Oh the irony

Yet before, I could choose to opt out of certain things. Now, I cannot. And pay more for it, and have less coverage.

It's unfortunate but it happens. I'm paying for the same thing.

There's a 98% chance that no one on this board is more fiscally conservative than I am so let me throw this out there for ranting:

Can someone please tell me how healthcare is a right? With that said I wish everyone had good healthcare but a right.....just no.

It didn't happen until the current administration made it happen and convinced enough people they were entitled to something, just because they breathe.
