Why hasn't the financing of this Ponzi scheme Health Care bill not been addressed?
--------------------
It has. People have been complaining about it for months, but just get brushed aside as being "teabaggers" and "unamerican". Actually, 60 cents on the dollar for the government is better than average. Usually, you get nothing for taxes paid.

How much should health insurance cost me?
I am 22 years old, male, Student in college, homeowner, single
--------------------
Well, this is open to debate... The U.S. is about the only industrialized nation where health insurance costs anything out of pocket. Most other advanced nations have implemented universal health insurance a long time ago, so in those countries health insurance per se is free (i.e., the cost of it is paid by the government out of tax revenues)... On a more practical note, your insurance premium will depend on whether you want an HMO or a PPO, as well as on the deductible you choose. The lower the deductible, the higher the premium.

Is it a lot harder to sell health insurance since our economy has gotten worse?
Im an considering pursing this but am terrified by a job that is solely commision based
--------------------
Selling in the employer-based market is exrtremely competitive, and it always will be. Working solely for commission is always a bit scary, but can also be a great motivator. In this economy, employers are looking for new ideas, new concepts to help them balance the cost to the quality of the benefits. The purpose of employee benefits is to attract and retain quality employees. It is not an entitlement, but rather an incentive to keep the business' clients happy with the quality of their products and service. Good Luck. P.S. I agree with the NASE comment above.

Does Sanate bill exempt illegal immigrants from fines in case they fail to purchase health insurance?
Is it true that only American citizens and legal immigrants will be fined, and then jailed?
--------------------
Probably - and we pay for them too. Sure, it's doesn't say they are paid for but if they don't check, they are paid for. Obama is a LIAR! Joe Wilson was correct.

Are health insurance companies making more medical decisions today than in the past?
Do you know anyone who has been short changed on medical care because of an insurance company?
--------------------
Actually, some suit in a chair is making medical decisions that doctors should be making. In my case, I take medication for blood pressure and my doctor wants me to take an ace inhibitor to help protect my kidneys (i am diabetic also). Well, I had a mild allergic reaction to ace inhibitors about 10 years ago, so my doctor prescribed another class of drugs that works similar to ace inhibitors and protects my kidneys. The insurance company won't pay for it because the next "step"on my drug regimen was the ace inhibitors and I skipped that step. Even though my doctor has written to them that I am allergic to the ace inhibitor, they want me to try a different ace inhibitor before they will pay for the other drug. My doctor is afraid that I will have a worse reaction than before so won't prescribe this drug so I am paying $77 a month for a drug rather than the $10 co pay. Fortunately for me, the doc is writ ting my rx for a high strength and I take 1/2 tablet so the scrip lasts longer.

Do health insurance companies cover homebirth?
What has been your experience/knowledge? Would the insurance company pay for the midwife or for equipment? Or would they claim it was too much of a risk and only pay for a hospital birth?
--------------------
I guess you're in the States. I've had two homebirths in Ontario, Canada and our health plan took care of everything. I think to know for sure, you're going to have to contact your insurance company, as I'm sure they all have different policies. It seems ridiculous to me that they would not cover it, as statistically speaking, homebirth is safer then a hospital birth, especially when you get into post-birth complications or infections from being in a foreign germ ridden environment (the hospital that is, not your home). You naturally don't use pain meds, so there's a huge savings right there.

I don't have health insurance...which Presidential candidate will help me the most and why?
We have our own business and I just got the health insurance quotes today. In order to have health insurance it will cost us the same as our mortgage payments. We budgeted in our mortgage payments as if they were to be our largest payment. I guess we were wrong. Is it that way for everyone?
--------------------
probably hillary clinton, she's really big about universal health care. she likes the idea of making it free for everyone, if she can.
