A 64-year-old smoker buys health insurance

Boehner

He had a little trouble at first, but you know how these old guys are with modern technology.

I just read that article....O M G!!

Do people really pay that much for health insurance? What a ripoff.

I'm glad I don't, and never will have health insurance.

Hahaha, tell that to jatki99. $16 million in health care bills to date, paid thanks to insurance and (more recently) Medicare.

We'll take care of CowboyKell too if he too loses the health lottery and has to declare bankruptcy. Shame he's unwilling to help us back.

Not surprising though, as he has confessed here to being a tax cheat (lives in California, claims Tennessee residency for tax purposes, hasn't been in Tennessee in years (basically a craftier Bob Dancer)).

NOTE: When people write "I" in a post like CowboyKell did here, making his comment about himself and how he does things, it's entirely fair to raise other issues that the person has described about themselves in prior posts, to compare and contrast.

I am guessing that DC exchange has a lot of companies offering plans because that is where are the politicians are. Must be nice only one company offers plans in my zipcode, and as I understand it that is how it is in a lot of rural areas.

I feel terrible for Weeper of the House, John Boehner. That new tanning bed tax is gonna set him back quite a bit.

It's a crazy thing.

It's pure idiocy what you wrote. At least 95% of our health as adults is determined by what we eat and to a lesser degree how much exercise we get. The only health insurance anyone in the US should carry is catastrophic. Insuring anything beyond a health catastrophe is like insuring the air conditioner in your house or the engine in your car.

So health insurance and auto insurance is crazy?

What a sad mess.
