How do you have such in-depth knowledge of the parking rules and potential punishments at SAIT from so far away?

Nothing says better like 20million+ people losing their health insurance.

The San Antonio Institute of Technology is not what we're talking about.

Wrong again Alpine Fisher.

"The Kaiser study shows that average family premiums rose 20% from 2011 to 2016. That rate of increase is actually much lower than the previous five years (up 31% from 2006 to 2011) and the five years before that (up 63% from 2001 to 2006)."

http://time.com/money/4503325/obama-...sts-obamacare/

The ACA was actually a drag on healthcare costs. What happens when you remove the legislation on insurance companies? Costs go through the roof. What happens when you let the market dominate healthcare decisions? You have epi-pens jump 500% over night. But don't worry, the market will rescue you. The mortuaries will battle for your business when you have to bury a loved one because you couldn't afford the healthcare to save their life.

Are you going to respond to us pointing out the falsehood you posted earlier or are you choosing just to move on with a new one?

Well I hate to argue with someone that knows everything

My BCBS premiums in 2016 were $1130/month for a family of 4. My 2017 premiums increased to $1689/month - An increase of $559/month or 49% increase. Not only that my deductible raised and my coverage went to the less desirable HMO from PPO.

I mean you should know by now how aggressive this board is at outing returning posters, conservative, liberal or otherwise.

Should everyone be passive-aggressive instead? Sad.

If you post honestly, and admit when statements you make are proven incorrect. I would welcome some good faith comments from Conservatives.

Funny/ Sad. GOP Senator Lindsey Graham thought Trump might nominate a TV Judge- I bet Judge Judy could afford to buy the post if she wanted.

And whose fault is that? Your insurance company and your employer. No one else. If anything the ACA helped keep costs lower because they injected more insured into the pool to spread costs out. Imagine how costs would be without those insured in the system? Imagine what will happen when you take 12 million out of the insured pool and those with policies have to cover the premiums to make up? Do you know what happens? Prices don't come down. That is just straight math. Or don't they have that in Texas/NE Calgary either?
