hmmmm 95$ opt out fee..let's see that comes to .26, per day and i'm thinking you can find .26 by just looking around on the ground..cry me a river next time you go out partying or make a buy..
Wow Shy ( may I call you shy?), you don't come across as that flippant over other people's property to me usually. Why do you feel it's OK to force a college kid to pay
anything
he doesn't need to pay and why do you feel you have that right?
Being a healthcare worker I've bitched about insurance for almost 20 years now (and pharmaceuticals). If you understand what Obamacare is, it further entrenches insurance companies, Big Pharma and the hospital cartel into our health care system. This is what we need to moving away from, not toward.
I work with a doc from Turkey. He says they diagnose, the pharmacist decides what drugs to use (except specialties). It's illegal to do that here because of gov controls. I know many GPs and trust me, your pharmacist understands drug interactions better. There is so many things we can do to lower costs in health care but each layer of gov we add only increases costs. You understand why don't you? To lower costs we need to get AWAY from our current 3rd party payer system not further entrench it.
P.S.
Because something is subsidized it doesn't mean that it costs less.
