My problem is that I cannot afford the medicare supplement costs. Between medicare deducted from your SS and medicare part D and supplement, I am going to the poor house real fast. Could not get a cost of living raise in SS fro 2 years but the congress voted itself a raise of $4000.00 per year because they needed it. Think I will run for congress, they get free everything.

Re: [Felvtalk] O T
Long ago, around 1985, just after my dad passed away, I had a minor health issue and a lot of health worries. At that time I had insurance through Met Life because I was self employed. Unfortunately, the insurance (always read the fine print) did not cover a basic glucose tolerance test, a thyroid test, or a Pap smear. It did cover a broken bone, various sprains and other injuries. The problem was I was afraid of adult onset diabetes since my dad's entire family had it and one brother died at age 50 when he went into a diabetic coma. I had to spend a whole lot of money to get the tests I needed. Fortunately, no diabetes. I do have hypoglycemia and that was what was making me woozy and unsettled. But it cost me over a thousand dollars to find this out. Mom said not to cancel the Met Life policy because I drive and she was afraid I would have an accident and tremendous health cost to get patched up and glued together. Well, every 6 months they raised the premium until I was paying over $1,000 every six months. I cancelled and did not have health coverage until recently when I became eligible for Medicare. This is why small businesses fail, in my opinion, because people are looking for jobs that give benefits and health insurance coverage and small businesses just can't afford to insure two or three workers. This also effects the care of our rescued cats and dogs. If we are paying thousands of dollars for our own health insurance or issues we can't usually afford to give them the treatments they need, the yearly physical exams to catch issues like beginning renal problems, elevated glucose, etc.. Then in a year or two it becomes a major veterinary expense because the problem has gotten worse. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too!

I learned that lesson the hard way many years ago.. IF anyone cares enough to go outside of Snopes.com to research the information below to see if it is true ~ your choice. Why would this person not be telling the truth anymore than Snopes.com? My point is why should anyone believe Snopes.com. Who are they really.and. the truth has to be searched for, not provided by a ghost on line. Just my two cents~ **Read below** (I did not write this, but it sure has me wondering) SNOPES NO MORE - A MUST READ I HOPE THIS OPENS EYES AND MINDS. I HAVE FORWARDED SOMETHING AND SOMEONE WOULD WRITE ME BACK AND SAY SNOPES SAID IT WAS FALSE. Many of the emails that I have sent or forwarded that had any anti-Obama in it were negated by Snopes. I thought that was odd. Check this out. Snopes, Soros and the Supreme Court’s Kagan. We-l-l-l-l now, I guess the time has come to check out Snopes! Ya' don't suppose it might not be a good time to take a second look at some of the stuff that got kicked in the ditch by Snopes, do ya'? We've known that it was owned by a lefty couple, but hadn't known it to be financed by Soros! Snopes is heavily financed by George Soros; a big time supporter of Obama! In our Search for the Truth department, we find what I have suspected on many occasions. I went to Snopes to check something about the dockets of the new Supreme Court Justice, Elena Kagan who Obama appointed and Snopes said the email was false and there were no such dockets so I Googled the Supreme Court, typed in Obama-Kagan, and guess what? Yep, you got it; Snopes Lied! Everyone of those dockets are there. So Here is what I wrote to Snopes: Referencing the article about Elena Kagan and Barack Obama dockets: The information you have posted stating that there were no such cases as claimed and the examples you gave are blatantly false. I went directly to the Supreme Courts website, typed in Obama Kagan and immediately came up with all of the dockets that the article made reference to. I have long suspected that you really slant things but this was really shocking. Thank You! I hope you will be much more truthful in the future, but I doubt it. That being said, I’ll bet you didn't know this: Kagan was representing Obama in all the petitions to prove his citizenship. Now she may help rule on them. Folks, this is really ugly. Chicago Politics; and the beat goes on and on and on. Once again the US Senate sold us out! Now we know why Obama nominated Elena Kagan for the Supreme Court. Pull up the Supreme Courts website, go to the docket and search for Obama. She was the Solicitor General for all the suits against him filed with the Supreme Court to show proof of natural born citizenship. He owed her big time. All of the requests were denied of course. They were never heard. It just keeps getting deeper and deeper, doesn't it? The American people mean nothing any longer. It's all about payback time for those who compromised themselves to elect someone who really has no true right to even be there. Here are some websites of the Supreme Court Docket: You can look up some of these hearings and guess what? Elena Kagan is the attorney representing Obama! Check out these examples: http://www.supremecourt.gov/Search.aspx?FileName=/docketfiles/09-8857.htm http://www.supremecourt.gov/Search.aspx?FileName=/docketfiles/09-6790.htm http://www.supremecourt.gov/Search.aspx?FileName=/docketfiles/09-724.htm If you are not interested in justice or in truth, simply delete. However, if you hold sacred the freedoms granted to you by the U.S. Constitution; by all means, PASS it ON! There truly is tyranny afoot. Valerie Barnes Office Manager/Bookkeeper G.W.

Re: [Felvtalk] O T
I have health insurance through the state-run high risk pool . It's relatively expensive and there is a lot it doesn't pay for -- I am currently paying off $295 for a regular doctor's visit and labs because I have a pre-existing condition so no visit is EVER just an annual checkup by their definition (which would have been free). That's in addition to $326 a month with a $5500 deductible, which is the "low income" premium. Its major advantage is on the drug co-pay, and they get you a *little* off your doctor bills. I have a temp job, 5 paid days off a year, no bennies. I would have gone under long ago if my housemate weren't extraordinarily generous (and received a decent inheritance a few years back). I have a friend who has a number of health issues, including panic disorder, for which she was taking a number of meds, with meds to counteract the side effects of those meds, you know how that goes. She had a bad patch, lost her full-time job and benefits, and was also using this shared-risk insurance. It was increasingly difficult coming up with the monthly premiums. Several years ago she married and moved to England, and gets every prescription for under $10 (our money) and now is making inroads into her panic with a psychologist. She is miles better off there than she was here. Y'all may not all be fans of Michael Moore, but his film Sicko was an eye-opener. He goes around Europe and finds out that the drugs are cheap, the doctors aren't greedy, paid sick days and vacations are plentiful and *mandated* -- much more compassionate than here, where those of us without paid sick days either get into financial trouble or suck it up and work sick. He also took a bunch of sick people, many of them first-responders on 9/11, by boat to Gitmo, since the medical care there is supposed to be great, to demand equal treatment for US citizens as prisoners of war get. They couldn't land on Gitmo and diverted to Cuba, where each and every person was evaluated and prescribed meds which were actually better than they were getting in the States, and those meds cost a fraction of the price. One woman was going bankrupt at home to pay for her inhaler for her 9/11 lung damage, I think in the states she was charged something like $120, and in Cuba that inhaler cost something like $5. The thing about health care is that if the costs can be brought under control, a LOT of our country's economic and social problems get solved, and the federal government is the only entity with enough power to do that. The individual states aren't up to it.
