In response to the "Obama I don't really care about your Health Kill Granny plan" we have already seen rates go up substantially and now I read that many Insurance Co. are dropping Child policies to avoid the new rules.
This tells me the best course is for a more pragmatic Health Care plan that doen't have 13 or more new taxes hidden in 2000 plus pages, of garbage.
The republicans actually have a better idea for after we get rid of the Obama plan after the Nov. Election.
I only hope they follow through with what they are saying now. We could see much of the damage of the last two plus years reversed with a little luck.
There use to be a thread in the "Health Care" forum that provided a link to all the health care reform proposals prior to what eventually became law, but it's gone none...made part of the forum archieves I suppose. Point is, from what I read of Republican proposals they weren't that much different that what we actually received. In fact, IMO, they didn't go far enough to address many of the issues listed in the OP that patients have had to deal with for years from the health insurance industry.
Frankly, I'd much rather have the issues that were addressed in what the Dems passed than to continue having to deal with those issues where Republican proposals fell short.
