Current AA retiree health insurance ?

[MCI transplant]

The problem with Obama care is they let it get watered down by the Insurance companies. Why force people to buy insurance from private providors who make a profit off it? Insurance companies are an added layer of profit taking from the suffering of people. I have no problem with Doctors making a lot of money, they should, but when you add in the Drug companies, Hospitals and Insurance companies there are too many hands in the till. Socialized medicine takes out the insurance companies , their main purpose is to take our money and skim off it for profit taking and making lawyers rich. They rape the patients and the Doctors and are a huge part of the total cost of our system and pretty much an unneccissary part. Thousands upon thousands of lawyers are getting rich off the Medical system and proceedures that are especially risky such as Childbirth are seeing fewer and fewer Doctors wishing to go into this field.

Oh I agree,we need a National health care program.------- Just not this one!!! And are you kidding me when you say the problem with Obamacare is--------? First of all we can't afford it! But it's not that it covers "Health Care", but what about the other things it does cover that are buryed in it that have nothing to do with "health care" such as the 3.8% realestate tax you'll now have to pay the Feds when you sell your house http://reaganiterepu...e-includes.html that will bite us all in the tail feathers! And God knows what else is in that thing? ------ As Pelosi said:" We'll have to pass this bill to find out what's in it!"!

Uh OH....MCI,
I find you a good ol' dude(like This good 'OL' dude) (ME), but methinks you may be a 'Republican-Union Man', which is the equivilant of a 5-wheeled car.
God help me, but I hope I'm Wrong !

Republican-union man? Isn't that another term for pilot?

LOL, that's a good question.

Or; what color is your collar, blue or white ?

In the end, regarding retiree health benefits, we get it in the end.

Depends on the day and situation being asked.

Well you'll get an argument from me on Obamacare. I support it, and think it will be OK.
(NO Morons on Fox News....do my Thinking for me) !
However MCI, where you've got a valid point IMHO, is that a lot of places will "take the $$ penalty" as thier "easiest $$ way out".

And that little fact my friend may bit us all in the tail feathers!!!

Yea, IORFA, I do have a pilot's license! But I turned a wrench for a living. 40 years in fact. I earned my keep! And I don't expect the Government ,or AA, to give me anything that I didn't earn!

No, they both like to take more than they should of what you do earn!!

Speaking of retirement medical, what do you suppose is the delay on the Judge decision on the 1114 medical issue?

 

[MCI transplant]

No, they both like to take more than they should of what you do earn!!

I think it's just a matter of how you were bought up! I was taught that in real life, there is no "free lunch", and you have to work for everything you get.------- Hey, I worked tell I was 68 years old to get my little grass shack on the beach in the Virgin Islands! And if you want to be my neighbor, you can do the same!!! But, I don't want any polition, Democrat, of Repuplican, in Washington, telling me, "for the good of the masses" what I can, or can't do!
