Be aware, the Republican plan for healthcare is to let the insurance companies call the shots without controls. if you have a pre-existing condition, a term made up by the insurance industry, then you are screwed. Anything you’ve ever had healthcare for will be a pre-existing condition

of course they did. It’s the way it works. Without a proper opposition party, the Republicans will just keep drifting to the right. They aren’t going to stop themselves.

It’s my hope that the voters of Illinois will take care of the problem
I hadn't realized that Durbin has been the Democratic whip since 2005 (!!). That's just too long to be in that position (or any leadership position), his caucus should vote him out (the resulting Aaron Sorkin movie will have him receiving the news on a blue slip)

more down is up and up is down bullshit. It will be up to the citizens of Maine what happens to Angus King
US senators will say anything. "Standing up to donald trump gave him more power." No it didn't. That isn't true.
This is what bullies want you to think, and it's why they get stronger

Welcome to “justice” in Donald Trump’s America.
I hold our lawmakers responsible for attaching the word Medicare to these plans. Doing so was pure evil as many Americans had already been burned and voted with their feet to get off managed care plans. There would not be all these commercials were the insurance companies not racking up profits.
The deceptively named ‘medicare advantage’ plans are NOT MEDICARE, I repeat, not Medicare. If you are 65, the age to enter Medicare, these plans are a scam!! This is managed care through insurance companies & should never carry the word Medicare. Half the elderly have been suckered into buying them

all those commercials for Medicare advantage should be a dead giveaway to Americans that there’s money to be made or the insurance companies wouldn’t be running them. If you can, watch John Oliver‘s piece on Medicare advantage as it is revealing.

yes, that is what I mean!
Do you mean get on regular Medicare and then buy a supplemental policy? I'm just this week getting ready to do the work on this. Because I received that letter canceling my policy, it seems I have a month longer to take care of things.

I have regular Medicare which does cost more to carry but I am also a two-time ovarian cancer survivor. I know that life can change in an instant because I’ve been there. Three years ago, a Medicare advantage salesman was honest with me and told me I should never give up my Medicare.
We signed my wife up for this, with plans to sign me up when eligible. Do you have any suggestions for an alternate route?

I don’t have one at all. I went on regular Medicare. I’ve had ovarian cancer twice but been in remission a long time. Three years ago, a salesman for Medicare advantage was honest and told me I should never give up my Medicare. It’s all fine on some plans until illness comes calling
As a retiree, I have the Medicare advantage plan. It may not be perfect, but it sure is better than having to pay for all the things I would have been charged if I didn’t have it. A $90 copay is much better for one of my medicines than the thousands it would have cost me. Do you just have a bad one?

It’s ironic cost is why people gravitate toward it & unfortunate costs of care under it become problematic when illness comes calling. I’ve had ovarian cancer twice & learned lifes circumstances can change in an instant. If you can find a way to afford it get on Medicare before something happens

Trump thinks he can throw some money at the voters and they will get off his back. I hope he’s wrong.

I consume a massive amount of political news. And in every story the reporter contacts the specific Trump admin spokesperson for comment and the response is always a venomous personal insult followed by praise for Trump or a cabinet official. I realize that has always been standard journalistic
