I didn’t miss it. I’m just astounded by the glibness in some of the posts about this topic. (Not necessarily just yours.) How about these simple concepts for starters? Make every insurance company that deals with Medicare/Medicaid/ACA either be non-profit, or use a non-profit arm of the company. Do away with ‘children’ 26 and under being able to stay on their parent’s plan. Set the age lower. 26 is ridiculous. Allow ANYONE to purchase a catastrophic plan with a high deductibles/OOP, no routine doctor visit coverage, testing, or prescriptions, and it must include preexisting coverage. Basically, an umbrella policy that pays nothing until you hit a large $$$. Set different ranges that cost different amounts per range. Prescription coverage could be totally separate plans. Look at their formulary, and pick the best one for your needs. Or, pick none. To me, insurance companies shouldn’t be for-profit anyway. If the law requires us to have the insurance, a for-profit company shouldn’t be able to insure it.

Kiffin to LSU rumors heating up. Supposedly Ole Miss gave him an ultimatum to make a decision. How could he leave when his team is most likely going to be in the playoff?

I think you missed the part where I said I think everyone needs to have health insurance available. i also said I don’t have an answer. Something does need to change. There’s a single mom that works for the same company I do. She pays insurance premiums out of her paycheck, and has two kids that are sick a lot. The doctor visits cost around $150 a kid, they’re usually both sick at the same time so that’s a $300 doctor visit. She told me that the last couple times her kids were sick she took them to the ER to avoid paying the Dr…..while not right, she could not afford to go to the doctor die to the high deductibles.

Yeah, that is the point. They know not what they say.
-
Well they talk about CT 50 defense. I’m just trying understand the difference they are talking about. 50 would be an odd front.

If you knew when you were going to need it, what for, and how much, you wouldn't need it. You could save up for it yourself. What you're proposing would require everyone to submit to a prescreening and lifestyle questionnaire before being accepted on an insurance plan. You'd also need to submit to regular screenings. Then, the insurance company could accurately gauge risk. This would have to include employer-based plans as well for the risk pool. How would you feel about that? You'd have to be acceptable to cover for medical insurance before you were hired... Not sure you'd be happy with that policy. My wife developed chemical engineering processes that many of you use every day in your lives when you use toothpaste that whitens your teeth, environmentally friendly cleaners/detergents/disinfectants, healthcare uses, and even fuel for rockets. Now--as y'all know--she is basically helpless on her own because of something totally out of her control. What would you do? Just throw her to the curb since we can't work any more? After a productive career that helped us all, it's now Logan's Run time? Some of you need to count your blessings you have your health. You may not have it tomorrow.

I am not sure I follow you. WOS runs an odd front base which includes a 50 depending on who they are playing. I don't believe I have ever discussed the "Cornel Thompson 50". I have discussed the WOS fans that have no idea what they are talking about when they are complaining about WOS current coaching staff and the defense that they run.

WE have collected a lot of money off the tariffs - and it may take a while to feel results. He is changing global trading, that does not happen overnight.

Could you give us a break down on the Cornel Thompson 50? What does WOS run now?
-
All district teams will cover this. Or is this a thread for dad's and uncle's to post their kids names that may not get this lol
-
I see the tariff strategy. I just don’t have confidence in it. It may take years to see the fruits of this strategy, if it works. You’re asking a lot out of the American public to say hang in there, trust me, things will get better.

I think strategy confuses democrats, almost as much as the truth.

Thanks for that! May give them a try then!
