We're going to hell in a hand basket and fast. This health care plan will be the death of us.

what is better do nothing? I lose my health insurance next month, cause ill be divorced.the only plan i can get will cost me $500.00 a month and i am healthy as an ox.I wont spent that money for shit health care.Ill be uninsured. or go in the Er like the mexicans do.Lets see what kind of plan there is for me,and ill take it from there. To do nothing like GW bush did is so fuckin stupid.Something had to be done.Lets see what happens. Blowing health insurance companies didnt work

[stevew2]

Parfait, I am not arguing people should eat better, or should exercise. That is a no brainer. But most jobs don't lend time for exercise, and junkfood is all around. Have you ever been to a teacher's lounge? I avoid it myself, except to pick up mail. There is always cupcakes, and junkfood. Many offices have the same issues. I am just saying to ween people off of poor diets is easier said than done. Education would help a younger generation learn to eat better than their parents do, and infomercials teaching good habits would be good as well, that is mainly my point.

How many of you grew up in the clean your plate generation? Starving children in Africa and all.........don't be wasteful. That was all I heard as a child. Now I don't do that, nor do I encourage my children to do that. But I heard lots of parents tell their children the same.

And portions at restaraunts are ridiculous. My husband and I share a meal, and I know it pisses the owner off, but we cannot possibly eat all that they serve.

I am just saying old habits die hard. People need to be re trained to eat better.

Meeee!! And I hated mashed potato's, they made me gag!! My mother tried anything
and everything to get me to eat them ...including putting them in an icecream cone, yes ma'am!!

Mashed potatoes in an icecream cone? LOL! Well your mom was creative. My dad used to make me eat olive loaf. For those so fortunate to not know what this is I will tell you. It is Bologna with green olives and pimentos all through it. I am sure knowing my dad, it was economical, and he liked it. I used to gag at the thought of it. He made me eat it, and it came back up every time. I guess he gave up after a while, watching it come up in reverse was affecting his desire for it. LOL! Blech.

i like that shit along with barbaque loaf

This can't really be considered health care reform. It's more some health insurance reform.
There is a long way to go to really reforming health care, but at least this is one step in the right direction.

Yup, totally true - but I don't think you got the point of my post. It's more that the consequences you take in the mall, grocery shop etc, impacts a lot more people than yourself. That's my point (One of 'em at least. I'm not judging you, Ginger. ). I'm really passionate about this, and I think more should be to be honest.

I got two girl's phone number on my morning run today. Latinos are just amazingly beautiful! Still waiting for MG's number though...

[portland]

but then, again, if you were to say things any other way then MG wouldn't have anyone to love & she would hafta go back to loving Steveo.

awww ...he really is a great guy!!


Steveo's an ass ...

and a fat ass

Deano said I'm starting to sound like you!!!

Steveo's ok ...sometimes!!

Did you just acknowlege me?
Unacceptable!

hes okay, just a fat ass with a fucked up avatar, along with portland and gaybot, what happened with the hot avatars? At least deano is constant {within the last 30 days}

I happen to think my AV is just fine....it's not all about you SteveW2!!!!

I tried one on today for the heck of it - the sign said it would add 2 cup sizes. I called b.s.
I said "no way, I don't even have enough skin for that." And I was wrong.

Wow! There's no way that would work on me, I guarantee it!

that's what I said.

uh. it worked.

ACTUALLY ADDS 2 CUP SIZES??

Dude, they have NOTHING left to run on. This is their only chance...to hope for dropping poll numbers of the president and the Dem Congress. I imagine he'll come in and show an article from the WSJ, or National Review, or some right leaning fishwrap stating some obvious right winged garbage and try tp pass it off as legitimate news, but it doesn't work any longer. They're fucked, no other way to put it. I wasn't going to gloat or as Dan put it, "prance around saying hahahahahaha" but after seeing their childish behaviour, complete with whining and promises of repeal and lawsuits, I say it's all fair game now. FF is going to wish he never came here.

And you made some valid points too parfait, but I was just saying old habits die hard. People need to learn to cook and shop and eat more efficiantly. If you were raised on fried chicken, white gravy, fried okra, fried most everything.........you need to learn to change cooking habits. It would also be good if you could be trained to cook more lean and healthy.
People are not born knowing what to eat. Mom's could use help learning how to cook more economically and healthy meals.
I never felt you were judgeing me Parfait. I just was trying to say it is hard for people who don't know how to change to change. I don't think that many people really want to be fat or unhealthy.

First of all, I had NO IDEA you went that way {if you know what I mean } (here's a clue: latina )

Second of all, guess what's as good as the people!! The FOOD!!!!!!!!!!! Yum!! If you are still in Florida, you should try a cuban place, or a good south american place. Flavor, flavor flavor!! No bland crap! Try telling one of those beautiful men/women about your diet and how you feel about food and weight! Latinas like food, latinas like curves and Latinas are not into whole grains and lemon fish, I can guarantee you that But then again, if they are just going to be one of the "whore" kind of women, like the one you peed on, then I guess what they eat won't matter

question... gosh 23 pages... now... have we fixed the problem???

My question is this... if you have your co pay for doctor visits...at 20.00- 40.00 or whatever the price end up being.. in the future with the govt plan... what if you need real care ER type services, surgerys, tonsels, knee replacements.. MRI, catscans... what type of coverage will we get... you know with your own insurance.... some have 90-10... some have 80-20... up to a certain amount..... HOW MUCH WILL COME OUT OF OUR POCKET FOR THESE TYPES OF SERVICES...

I had new insurance as of the beginning of this month. The deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses are higher. However, the premiums are lower and the overall coverage is just as good or better than before. Typically, the more you pay out-of-pocket, the better your coverage is down the road, at least that's been my experience. We also have what is effectively a health savings account that my employer contributes to that we can use to pay those out-of-pocket expenses throughout the year. There is a maximum that will cover but it's a good benefit.

We have that too, for the stuff that shows up under deductible on an EOB, we just have to submit it and we get reimbursed.

Oh but see that's the problem with our system now, we shouldn't have to pay for healthcare (a private industry) out of pocket, right? Insurance is supposed to cover ALL of it, at ALL times right? Why should we pay evil doctors for their private services? Isn't that what this new wonderful "bill" is for?
