Thursday, February 02, 2006 Healthcare Savings Accounts? How Can You Afford It? NEVER Get Sick! Yes, Universal Healthcare is the "thing" for every other industrialized country... but not America-- the great heartless "Christian" nation. This was passed along to me via Grandpa Eddie. Please check out 'Bush’s plan for less health care': "At the center of the Bush admin’s scheme is a plan to promote Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). These high-deductible insurance policies cover only extreme medical expenses--participants would deposit money, tax-free, into special savings accounts to cover other medical bills. If you actually need health care, this plan would greatly increase your out-of-pocket spending. But for those who can already afford high health-care costs, the plan works out to be a big fat tax break. "Since wealthy people can afford insurance policies with high deductibles, and since HSA tax breaks are most beneficial for people in high tax brackets, the president's proposal will provide the most help for those who need it the least," says Ron Pollack, executive director of the health care watchdog group Families USA." Imagine all that... those who need it the least will benefit the most from it. I guess that's why they want to get rid of contraceptives and abortion: They need to repopulate the US as most of us drop like flies b/c we can't afford healthcare. |
