I'm one of the few conservatives that believes that heath care is a right now a privilege. I don't like the plan we're being forced into because it doesn't help everyone, it doesn't cover everyone. The plan was suppose to lower rates and it hasn't and like I said in my OP is that I make barely too much to get government help but make too little to afford it on my own. So I will get a $700 tax/fine this year for not having health insurance.
It sucks because I don't get any other form of government help except pell grants to go with my student loans. I live on my own, pay my car payment, house payment, car insurance, and I don't get another dime from out government. So why is someone like me busting my ass to get through school and not getting any help punished?
Oh well, after I graduate I will be 29k in debt for student loans and about 67k in medical bills.. I've been paying what little I can on my medical bills but realistically I will end up probably having to file a BK on them in a few years because I just wont be able to afford it.
