Talking point alert!!
Conservatives keep harping on this notion that no premiums have been paid as if that is relevant at this point.

Today, January 15, 2014, is the first due date for premiums.

Tomorrow you can start your whining.

Guess what it is either ACA or Single Payer no body is getting off this train

yeah the GOP alternative is portability and "patient centered care"

whatever phuck that is...

I know what it is ...show up at the ER with a broken leg and no insurance that is what that is.

And your premiums and ours will rise to cover the cost of his cast, etc.

More extensions from the insurers themselves? That does not bode well.

I'm still waiting for somebody...anybody from the right, politicians or just plain old ignoramus ideologue private citizens...to provide their alternative that ends the international embarrassment of 30 million American citizens without health care coverage and 40,000 of them needlessly dead every year.

Until I hear that, they have nothing to say that interests me in the least.

Not all of it...not yet. But it's doing goddamn well more of it than anything we've heard suggested from the right. Of course all we've heard from the right is partisan pissing and moaning, along with an endless procession of 57-1/2 ft. trailerloads of disingenuousness and baldfaced lies.

I know I'm pissing in the wind, as both faces of the monster have their fingers in the pie (actually grapping with both hands), but a top down audit/review of the entire mess of health care regulations is I believe in order.
