health insurance company political contributions

My situation: I'm among the millions and millions of Americans without health insurance. I am 27 and very healthy. Almost never get sick. I eat healthy. Exercise. I am not overweight (all!). I do not use any recipe. I am a user who is not the snuff. I completely, 100% LOW RISK with one exception. 5 years ago, I had a about melanoma on my back. I go to the dermatologist to get checked twice a year. If I have more of melanoma is likely to be caught very early, and will be a thing very small (a small surgery to remove the cash and a 2 section "about it) because it was the last time.

Any history melanoma = Automatic decline for ALL insurance companies. And even in "high risk pools" such as "plan HIPUtah Utah" my melanoma is excluded for a minimum of 12 months. This means that even if I sign this ridiculous policy, which covers very little and is very expensive (over $ 400/month even reasonable coverage!), if within 12 months of coverage, I have another point of melanoma, there are no associated costs to be covered. Any costs associated with even get tested for melanoma within that period of 12 months will not be covered. "Insurance companies do not want to receive preventive care, and potentially allow what otherwise would be a very minor thing turn into something potentially far more serious, just to not have to cover? The simple answer is YES! They really do not give a shit about me. Only a shit its bottom line.

I am self-employed. I am a realtor, and an "independent contractor". I have a pattern based on the choice for health care. Even if it did, my "preexisting condition" would still be excluded for a fixed period of time. I was surfing online today, and found an article that had the headline: "REALTORS Cloudy limited by NAR With New Health Insurance Program. "sounds pretty good – right? Well, it turns out that by" limited "really means" COVERS nothing. "They are basically taking the money for almost nothing. The list of" Plan Limitations and exclusions applicable to all benefits "is so long it took me almost an hour to read and digest. One of the "exclusions" reads as follows: Treatment or removal of warts, boils, spots skin or birthmarks, bunions, acne, corns, calluses, cutting and trimming of toenails, care for flat feet, fallen arches or chronic foot stress; I called an agent of the company that administers the plan, and told him my situation. He rudely told me: "No, not covered". No not only that covers me, will not let anyone get in his plan to control or treatment for melanoma. Verification of melanoma involves the collection and testing of lunar abnormal in the future. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, but is almost 100% curable if detected early. These people would prefer if Get Checked I Do not Even! Wow … I think the "free market" about health insurance. Pad baseline. Screw the patient!

Under the plan Obama, no discrimination against people with preexisting conditions (ie ME!). Insurance companies could not cover persons when sick. It would create an insurance market, "La Bolsa", which would create a real competitive market. This would be a public choice (hallelujah!) For people like me! Would immediately provide low-cost coverage for people with preexisting conditions (ie, ME). This meaningless AGO! This is not just about me. There are millions and millions of Americans in similar situations. However, some ass hole in Congress are fighting tooth and nail to block the plan. They are so deep in the pockets of the insurance reception is disgusting. They are treacherous spreading lies and propaganda, and using the same old BS 'tactic fear "to try to block a real reform from happening. One of them even had the audacity to actually call out from the House," Liar! "A Barrack Obama as he spoke. This is definitely a new low in American politics, and is so disrespectful is beyond words.

So here's my request, to everyone reading this: please, please, call your congressmen. Tell them you plan to support Obama, and make real change. This can not wait.

title = "Obama"> Click here for details on the plan and send a letter to their congressmen.

title = "Rob Miller"> Click here to contribute to the campaign by Rob Miller. Help defeat Dick head Joe Wilson, who had the temerity to heckle Obama as president of the house, floor.

Participate in events and vigils to help pass real health reform. And if lawmakers do not listen, vote against it in the next election! ORGANIZE for their opponents. Donate to the campaigns of their opponents. That is something that captures your attention.

Please pardon my language in this post, and can certainly tell if 've read this far, this is something I'm very emotional about. As always, feel free to make comments.
