A war within the party would be delightful, especially if they start fragging each other and end up in mutual destruction. I'm tired of them just being assholes that want to micro-manage everyone's lives as control freaks.

My small biz - ins. agency and I handle ACA pols for clients. Seeing lots of examples of premium costs going up 3x, 4x, 10x. On-exchange Silver premiums are increasing more than off-exchange silver plan premiums. We are entering "death spiral" territory for premiums and plans.

Small business-owner here. My premium is going from 1450/mo with some tax credit to $2300/mo. due to both rate increase and loss of tax credit. That's for 2 people. Total cost of premium + med bills if we hit our max OOPS again - $47,500! Uninsurable without ACA. Prior cover was state pool.

Is being assigned to cover the White House still the plum reporting assignment, or are they finally really it's currently more equivalent to traffic reporting, since no one can actually act as a reporter and ask real questions?

I have come to the opinion that her show should be tagged as "Bizarro News". Any clip from it that I see is the opposite of truth.

This dumbass is in charge of CMS, which regulates Medicare and Healthcare.gov. OMG, I have to takes lots of certifications to sell them, but this DF can be in charge of it with no freaking knowledge about how it works. And they just keep increasing the requirements on us while he gets dumber.

What’s the point of this? It’s no more suburban than other sides of town. Just wanting to increase the imbalance of city services and investment that already exists?

Maybe, but those senators can f off. I'm tired of them not giving a shit about what their constituents think.

I don’t believe the voters would agree to this. The councilors perhaps, but not the populace (the opinions that should matter).

Exactly. increases in costs have too, but the health insurance model currently resembles the flood insurance model. For the most part, only those that need it, purchase it. Flood insurance is nearly 100% government subsidized, but no one realizes why that's signals a problem.

No, the current iteration has required additional subsidies because the actions taken 2016-2020 killed the actuarial model that was making it more affordable for many and subsidized for low income.

That can be with insurance, if it's subject to your deductible. Insurance may not cover it if its not on their formulary list.

They already tainted the risk pool when they dismantled the mandatory purchase requirement, which created an adverse selection pool. Suggesting it’s money laundering is preposterous. Aside from executive pay, why do they think premiums go up so much?

Did you ever see which insurance company filed the first suit in the Grant fire? Baist shows Indianapolis Life was on that block around that time, but There isn't one late enough to see which companies were there in the 1970s. It wasn't Indiana Ins. or American States. FB was close but on next block

I forgot about the Cosmopolitan fire. That was a large conflagration, but mostly because it was still just all just wood with nothing to slow it down. I need to pull out my mint coin set that was in a large fire, inside a safe and it partially melted and the coins discolored from the heat.

Has any subsequent fire been considered larger than this one? The Athletic Club fire was large and tragic, but I think it was confined to 1 building.

Some religious-based food banks require recipients to sit through prayer services to receive assistance. Not all do, but none should. It’s not an opportunity for forced prostylization.
