Lost her job and is sorry

“

Mea Maxima Culpa  I see a recidivist When voters fired her boss in the 2010 elections, she had to get another job and that meant she had to shop for health care, too. Three years ago, she got a plan that cost $225 a month with a $2,500 deductible. But then her health care company sent a letter a few weeks ago. “Blue Cross,” she said, “stated my current coverage would expire on Dec. 31, and here are my options: I can have a plan with similar benefits for $647.12 [or] I can have a plan with similar [but higher] pricing for $322.32 but with a $6,500 deductible.” She went on, “Blue Cross also tells me that if I don’t pick one of the options, they will just assume I want the one for $647. … Someone please tell me why my premium in January will be $356 more than in December?” … “And I was excited that previously uninsured people could now get insurance on the open market. But this is not affordable to me.” First, I am not invoking any  schadenfreude here; I feel sorry for her plight.  But, JFC!— why is she now (too late) sorry for her role in getting it passed?  Because SHE lost her job; because SHE will pay through the nose—if she can afford it—for less coverage than she had before.  I don't hear her apologizing to the millions—yes millions—who have lost, or will lose their full time employment because of Obamacare.  She's just another kind hearted person who thought she,  and Liberals like her, have a responsibility to make me do what's best for me.  Because I am  just too selfish,  and too short-sighted to do what's right.  I would not bet that she's learned that lesson.  I see a recidivist. Road to hell.  Paved.  Good intenentions.  Stupid people.
