I don't know about you guys, but I'm losing my healthcare if ACA goes under

I'm not. You know why? I'm a grown up with a job.

I don't ask for shit from this country BUT for healthcare.

A dubious claim given the content and tone of virtually all of your posts.

I do not believe it is in my family's best interest to have to choose between financial ruin, and letting me die because it's "cheaper" on the family's finances.

When you say "my family" are you talking about your mom? Aren't you an adult? If by family you mean your own wife and kids, I'll stand corrected, but I'm pretty sure you're talking about people who have already taken care of you long enough.

Second, how is anyone 'letting you die'? Do you have some kind of terminal illness?

financial ruin at the hands of the Healthcare Industry

I know just how you feel man. I felt the same way when ACA went into effect. See, I'm one of those people who did just fine under the old system, and felt the financial pain when I started having to pay for grown up babies like you.

It's nice to know that I was right to believe that the Republicans would fuck me over

Right, that was the plan all along. Fuck Jimmy. Go ahead, let's hear you rant about how the extra money your paying is only going to some doctor's beach house. Tell us all about how the mean old corporations and the 1% are just sadistic ass holes who pick on poor people for fun.

Oh and my brother, works as a mail distribution clerk at a community college. Makes about $30,000 a year, with some benefits because after 10 years of working as a Part-Time Temp, he got promoted to Full-time worker.

I'm sorry, does this community college OWN your brother? Is slavery still legal in your state? Sounds to me like he CHOSE to work as a part time temp for 10 years. Guess what, he's not allowed to complain about not climbing the ladder fast enough.

(Ironically, I worked in that same mail room, I was thusly laid off, as a result of his promotion due to nepotism policies.)

There is definitely more to that story. Not really interested though. If I look through all your posts, it seems you've lost ALOT of jobs. The only consistent factor in all of your disappointing relationships, is YOU.

The new Republican governor who replaced the Democrat, just announced major cuts in funding for all colleges in Missouri.

Well, what did you do to piss him off?

To finance this cut in funding, my brother, along with every other employee at the college, is facing a mandatory 3% pay cut,

Ouch. Maybe he should look for another job. Unemployment in missouri is under 6%. Shouldn't be hard, unless he's a moron.

so he's losing about $1,000 a year and he's not even wealthy to begin with.

So the school should have only cut salaries of the rich people?

Yep, I can't say for you guys, but I can admit my family is going to get FUCKED under this new wave of Republican politicians.

Unless......

Nah... it's too crazy.....


Although... it just might work
