Just like the bunny, you go on and on and on. Why don't you go
on someplace
else?

It's amusing to see how you behave when someone deflates your
theories by asking you a question you're too stupid to answer.
I have one of the toughest skins in this entire group. You on the
other hand have one of the weakest skins.

You believe you are owed a response to every question you pose.
You need to get over that hang-up and just deal with USENET as it
is, a place where you can come and talk with, BS with and ignore
anyone you want.

Tell me what the least expensive family health insurance plan
costs in Rochester NY. At least take a guess.
Why?
Your "why" was answered yesterday. You cannot make claims involving
numbers unless you have the numbers. You will now disagree,
something that's sadly predictable.

Because insurance costs in Rochester, New York only concern someone
who lives there. And so you are the only one here who gives a crap
about Rochester insurance costs. Do your own work,

He made a general statement which applied to the entire nation.
Without knowing specifics, his statement was meaningless. Try reading
more of the messages in a thread before commenting.

I read the thread. He probably cares less what insurance costs in
Rochester. Maybe Frostbite runs up the rates. Or winter alcoholism.
He may be able to look up policies in his area with some interest.

Whatever. It's about $675.00, unless you're on NY's poverty plan. Not
funny.
That doesn't seem to be out of line for what you get in case of an
emergency or life threatening situation.


True, but if I recall, the poverty plan becomes available at an income
level of 42K. While it may seem that a family with maybe 2 kids should be
able to manage on (picking a number here) 45K, there are families whose
lifestyles were based on let's say 75K, but their employers shut down.
So, suddenly, the "opportunity" to pay for the insurance no longer
exists. Here, Kodak is an example.

Nothing is forever, and I have gone from good job to wondering where my
next paycheck is coming from 4 times in my career.

Back in '02 I was laid off in late February and my wife was laid off three
weeks later. Going from two paychecks in the high tech arena to no
paychecks was a shocker but, we regrouped and went out looking for new
jobs. Albeit we were lucky enough to have a large employer base in our
area. We have stayed in the DC area for just that reason.

Pick yourself up and make some plans and make some decisions and get on
with your life.

I'm not talking about me. I'm talking about a few million people who have a
lapse of even a few months without health insurance. Unless you're a seer of
some kind, you can't predict when you'll be in a horrific car accident and
rack up $20-$30k worth of medical bills.
