Bonercare?

Ironically, Boehnercare is also the name of submitter's mom's small business.

Cewley: bonercare.

sorry, viagra isn't covered. Here's a popsicle stick and some scotch tape.

John Boehner has way too much makeup on in that picture. His eyes look ridiculous. Although, to be fair, his eyes are less ridiculous than his health care 'plan'

TFA: Under the GOP plan, insurance companies will not be banned from denying individuals coverage on the basis of pre-existing conditions however. Instead, those with preexisting conditions would become part of a "high-risk" pool of individuals to be insured, Boehner explained.

So, eventually, everyone gets into the high-risk pool.

Fantastic!

trickle down health care policy

So the GOP unveils a plan that once again fails to help anyone? Par for the course.

This is probably the worst liberal twist of conservative agenda I have ever heard. I can't believe they posted TFA. Wow, some people will just believe whatever they read on the internet.

"Gentlemen, the plan is do nothing."

Wow... a plan so full of fail that you would almost expect had been put together by Democrats as a strawman Republican plan. Seriously... I realize the Republicans don't want more government involvement in healthcare but this plan is off the deep end. We all love the deregulated credit card industry so much that we want the same with health insurance? WTF?

I fail to understand why we can't just have a stupid public option. Would that be so hard? If the free market is really all it's cracked up to be, wouldn't the private insurers be able to handle it? Except the weakest ones? Isn't that Social Darwinism in action?

So, the Republicans are still on their plan of "don't get sick, and if you do, die quickly." Boehnercare indeed.

To paraphrase "It is better to have no healthcare plan and to be thought of as a moran than to show a healthcare plan and prove you are a moran."

I really dont understand why your penis has three balls

"In my plan Eda's prescription plans would be covered. Under my opponent's plan, her house would be burned to the ground."

I hope I don't get sick, but if I do, I will do the following:

1. Go to the GOP, tell them how as a sick person "ObamaCare" makes my life worse.
2. Get invited to speak at the GOP convention (preferably 2012).
3. Tell the crowd that in order to drive costs down for everyone else, I will remove myself from the insurance market.
4. Off myself on stage.

The Rest of Hitler's Mustache: "In my plan Eda's prescription plans would be covered. Under my opponent's plan, her house would be burned to the ground."

The author of this piece assumes insurance providers all will "race to the bottom", ignoring that there will be market incentives to offer something better than the other guy to attract customers. If this were true, all restaurants would provide nothing more than a burger dollar menu to match MacDonalds. You would have no choice in the menu, no matter where you went. This isn't how the market works.

If all insurance companies can sell across all state lines, some will race to the bottom. They will be the cut rate providers offering the cheapest package with minimal coverage, but it would probably be better than nothing. Not everyone wants just cheap coverage. Enough people will demand decent coverage for a fair price that companies will offer it. Some will offer crap and tie it up in too much mumbo jumbo in the contract so you don't realize you are signing up for crap. These companies will be found out quickly enough and soon learn the power of the internet tied with word-of-mouth.

The first year of a free market in health care insurance will be a farking mess. It will sort itself out, though, and everyone will be better off -- except for a few sleazy businesses who will either go out of business or scrap along with the left-over crumbs.

That whooshing sound you will hear will be all the insurance companies sending folks to the new head office location in the state with the most lax laws. No doubt about it. Whats good for the credit card companies is good for the insurance companies too.
Stupid republitard.
