I don't know how this got switched to the topic of shoulders to the cost of insurance, but absolutely... we are all paying for Obamacare and people who are on Obamacare are getting screwed as well.
For those of us who have worked and have insurance for working [versus Medicaid services, which is called different things in different states] have higher co-pays for medications and deductibles and co-pays for procedures. I learned years ago that this country is falling apart from the inside out; meaning the government is taking more and more of our rights away. This very same thing happened to the Roman Empire. That lasted a little over 800 years and we are barely at 250 years old. Very very very sad. I am a libertarian and proud of it. Layman's terms for what a Libertarian is -- keep the government out of my face. ~Lori On Fri, Feb 19, 2016 at 10:16 PM, Larry Willis <[email protected]> wrote: > I know what you are saying, Carolyn.
