I specifically referred to those without insurance yet can afford it.
This is a lie.
You did not specify.
Read your post that I quoted.
So you are saying I never said that in this thread then?

Maybe the post isn't there anymore if you were up to your usual tricks, demeaning other members and name calling.

You called my question stupid. What exactly did you mean by that.
You have repeatedly called posters stupid. The post that I quoted you on at the beginning of this was removed by a mod because you asked this of the poster that you were responding to:
Are you retarded?
No, you haven't called anyone stupid.
Crawl back under the bridge.

Where is your post that specifically differentiated between the uninsured which are poor and those that can afford it?
Things. Yes, like demean other members when you can't man up to your lies.

It means I no longer have to chip in for people who choose not to buy insurance. It means the same for you. You do not seem to have a clue here.edit on 6-7-2012 by habitforming because: (no reason given)
You claimed I said that poor people will be chipping in.

Do you read poor into that statement of yours somewhere?
The words poor or afford doesn't occur.
I thought you had 'things' to do.

No, you made a simple, blanket statement that covered anyone who did not buy insurance.
By doing so, you included the poor that are uninsured.
reply to post by habitforming
Anyone that chooses not to buy insurance. I was quite clear about that. You are trying not to see it.

Interesting word, 'anyone'.
Many may 'choose' not to buy insurance for the simple reason that they can not afford it.
A lot of people use cost to guide their choice of whether or not they purchase a product, no? Most people use this method to decide whether or not they buy something, whether they are rich or poor.

What system do you use?

You are correct, it doesn't change what you said.
Your original statement did not differentiate between rich and poor, or anything about choice.
You later added something about choosing.
You included everyone in your original statement, even the poor.
I say we will still pay for the poor, plus another layer of government bureaucracy. The working class loses. It won't affect the rich.
not if you are for Obamacare.
Same argument I am making
live daily life with an abundance of preventative measures. i know plenty that have succeeded.
How does one plan for the expense of cancer?
you never made any such reference, nice twist and turn but no go.
I specifically referred to those without insurance yet can afford it.
so, how does the above work ??
I for one, am sick of paying too much for my treatment just to cover someone else. Now they will have to cover their own ass and I can go back to just paying for me.
I've already done that.
Cool beans. Let me know when you can read my post and have something to say in response to me.
