Insured RN Suffering from Incurable Disease

I agree.


So much of the fault is placed on the 'evil' insurance company when a VERY large portion of it lies with the employer for choosing the plan and/or passing on the costs to their employees.

Also, people who are receiving disability usually also qualify for Medicare/Medicaid. I think there is far more to the posted story than is told.

Why doesn't the government give every family and homeless person a house? There are lots of people that have 2 homes, they can't live in both of them at once! Take the greed out of the housing-industrial complex! Why doesn't the government give food to it's citizens rather than let those greedy food companies make money off of it? People need food to live! It would greatly diminish their quality of life if they didn't get enough! Why can't we do that too?

Why don't we do those things too? Having private, for-profit food manufacturers or home and property sales is just as bad as having private, for-profit health care, isn't it? You simply cannot live without food and shelter, so these things shouldn't be for profit or private should they?

How far down this "socialized" rabbit hole do we need to go?

Does government need to take over these businesses too, out of its obligation to protect and take care of its citizens? There's a lot of risque stuff on television and the internet nowadays.... should the government also censor some of this in order to "protect and take care of its citizens"?

Tell me where the line between government responsibility ends and individual responsibility begins.

Finally, I was wondering when someone was going to look past the surface. If she is truly disabled, as she claims, She'd be collecting LTD & medicaid. Paying BCBS? Why?

There's more to this story........

Ok...I just watched the you tube video link in the OP.

Is that a Steinway she's playing?
She's lived in her home for 30 years.....should be paid for by now, homes in her neighborhood go for an average of $360,000.00.

Why?
Her story doesn't add up.
Work in a hospital long enough & you can smell a lie a mile away.
Watch her eyes as she tells her story, watch her shift her gaze......there's more here than she's letting on.

How is reforming healthcare going to un-debilitate her?

I'm all for reform.
Sustainable reform.
I'm yet to see a bill that is sustainable. When one comes down the pike, I'll jump on the bandwagon.
