I recently had a physical a few weeks ago, and I just received a voicemail from the doctor's office saying that I needed to come in for a follow-up appointment about my blood test results. This doctor usually doesn't make you come into the office unless your results are abnormal, so they probably found something in me. This whole health insurance thing couldn't have come at a better time--I might actually need it now. 
I hope it is nothing, Crystal, but if you continue to act the way you do it will inevitably become something. Inevitably.

Crystal G said: So first you complain because a family making $450 a week might not be able to afford so and so payments, and now you're complaining because these families will be exempt from making payments.
learn to read, they'll be exempted from having to have insurance and exempted from fines for not having it, as I asked, where's their medical coverage?
I already answered your question, that for FAMILIES who are exempt due to poverty, they are already on Medicaid and already have their medical bills covered. Which is why they are exempt from having medical coverage.
except that you didnt, you even stated in this thread that you knew people that qualified but were not given medicaid... unless of course you're saying that those on medicaid dont have to worry about but now that brings up the fact that there's so many that need medicaid but cant get it even though they qualify, where does it leave them?

Crystal G said: This is incorrect. I know this because I tried applying for medicaid twice, once while I was in college and once when I was not in college (but was working under the table making roughly $800 a month, which I declared as my income). Both times I was denied medicaid, and I was not a dependent either of these times.
I also knew of a college student who was PREGNANT and didn't even qualify for medicaid or food stamps, because she was receiving $5K a semester in grants. I thought that was pretty terrible.
Quote:
I actually asked this exact question at the Medicaid office... whether single fathers are eligible for Medicaid, and for some reason they said no. Only if the father is wed legally to the mother, and if the mother is eligible for Medicaid, then the entire family can get on Medicaid (including the father). Don't ask me why, for some reason Medicaid works like that.
sex based discrimination at it's finest... so where does obamacare come into play to insure single fathers and their children when they cant get covered by medicaid as you've once again so clearly stated

As for being an illegal immigrant, um, no. If you don't have at least a green card or a social security number you do not receive any benefits.

Nobody has to pay anything a month unless it is through government taxation. Which comes from their provate income. Is there any other kind, Komrade? And I find it outrageous that somebody has to pay thousands of dollars a month for other people's.

Quote:
In 2012, total health care spending in Canada is expected to reach $207 billion, averaging $5,948 per person.
The total federal budget for Canada is expected to be around $270B http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/03/21/federal-budget-2013-full-text/
Clearly the health care in Canada is NOT paid for by the federal Canadian government
