I don't know I'm no legal expert. However I'm old and remember well the Brady bill, the assault weapon ban, the starting of the background checks and there was huge talk of guns being protected by the 2nd amendment, but lots of talks from legislators saying that didn't apply to ammunition and...

Talked to a guy in Israel tonight on Ham radio. He didn't mention anything about it and was just everything is normal I guess. He was running a contest to get as many out of country contacts as he could.

No I literally got shingles. Then in response to the virus I got ADEM which is temporary and related to MS. It produces lesions in your brain (now gone on the MRI) and they short circuit which partially paralyzes you. It also causes your brain to swell which confuses you and makes you dizzy. I...

I'm sure what you say is correct. I also am sure that's why I have an assistant/secretary to take care of shit like that. I have other shit to do than sucks someones dick to get them to do their job. I'm not a bigshot in my field. I just not going to sit around and kiss ass to pamper some...

Tired now I"ll have to get into it tomorrow again. Fixing to go out and blow off steam and bush hog and shoot for a while. I didn't udnerstand why the maxium out of pocket on the silver plan was 1/4 what the the gold plan was and they're from the same company. I'll have to read the fine print...

Yeah I'm not picking anything related to getting a subsidy. Doesn't matter all the choices even with a subsidy aren't worth paying for. There's no platinum and the gold coverage has network coverage, but I wouldn't even actually be in their network and would have to drive 1-1/2 hours to see any...

Jeeze it's like the keystone cops. The guy said he had finished my application and was giving me the options and I told him I would look on the net after he finished my application. While he was entering whatever on the computer another person called me back to tell me they couldn't unlock my...

I'm no longer in TX, I moved at the start of the year to take the job that offered insurance lol. Anyway finally got thru to a guy who wanted to help and he unlocked my app. But he never could get the income deal right so he just put in $0.00 and told me to go with that and offered me a...

Gonna get my secretary to deal with it. Normally I try and not get her involved in personal shit but my patience has run out and she gets paid to be patient with idiots on the phone. I gotta call the FCC and deal with a license issue, lucky me day.

That's all right. I can do without insurance if I have to before I kiss ass to someone that was fucking handing out fliers at the mall a couple of months ago. Done with it for now. Looked it up, I have till August 28th or something around then to get on Cobra. I'll probably go with that for...

I can't find one that lets you come in personally. I called and they have the same info the national healchare line has, the application is locked. They can't start a new one or open the old one. I'm just going to skip it today. I really didn't think this would take all day. Sorry I'm not...

How can I determine if it's a piece of shit when they they just flat say "We don't know how to finish your application and we are now locked out of my application". Period. End of story. I've been working on this for approximatley 3 hours and nobody has said "We can finish the application" or...

One of the upstanding "citizens" I got literally could not speak english. I didn't even know what language it was, it wasn't spanish. I don't know how you people deal with this shit. I never have to deal with these types of people. I deal with people that get shit done and that's the most...

I'm trying but I can't find one. The only thing I have found so far or had recomended from the healthcare site or off the phone is 6 hours away. The last genius I talked to asked "why you be calling now enrollment be closed" even tho the previous genius said I would qualify for enrollment.

No. So far with 3 people at the ACA who are "specialist" the answer has ended "We don't know what to do next, have a nice day". They literally can't go any further when they find out you don't qualify for a subsidy and can't prove income even with supplied information.

Great

Well I finally got someone, she be like trying to work hard and lucnh is coming up. When I asked for someone that knew how to speak proper english she hung on me.

Great neither the website or the represenative on the phone could positively ID me or my income. So they pretty much said "ummm I don't know what to do". When I told them I didn't qualify for a subsidy let's move on that blew their mind, they literally didn't know what to do if they couldn't...

I'm going to look into it tomorrow, that's on the agenda. I won't get a subsidy, I know that and that's fine with me. Grrr ever get to the point of so long without sleep you can't shut it down to get to sleep. I really would want to avoid a suit. I don't want the company to get involved...

I didn't move and they can't even tell me where they sent it. I still get Cobra enrollment letters and they keep pushing the enrollment date back ever new one they send. However if they aren't going to cover what I had done during the gap what's the point of paying $2800 for 2 months of...

It was 45 days, and apparently the entire time they were sending it to who knows where. It's not TX. I had insurance in TX on the high risk pool until the first and I moved out of state to get this job with the group insurance. So basically the day before my procedure my insurance expired at...

Trust me I condensed it down a lot. I really thought it was over when I got the Cobra deal finally, only to find out that even tho they make you pay for the past 2 months, you technically are "covered" but they don't cover anything you had done during that period. I mean I guess I'm lucky in...

Dude when the hospital calls the insurance company and they say you have insurance and schedule it for the next day and it expired that day the insurance doesn't tell the hospital that. So you go in the ext day and then you find out it expired the previous day and you have no insurance to cover...

I didn't find out till almost 2 months or whatever it was that my policy had ended. I had already had the work done at the hospital and they assumed I stll had insurance as did I. It wasn't till a few weeks later (I probably would have gotten a bill sooner or later from the hospial, and I did)...

While I'm complainging about healthcare.... I think insurance should cover bail money as well. I had a Dr. examine me for 2 minutes, look at my MRI for 30 seconds and declare "You'll never be better than today, you have massive brain damage, I don't expect you to walk again or regain use...

But here's my complaint, if the ACA had not passed my previous insurance that I had for years wouldn't have poofed. Then when I actually got sick they would have covered it and I could continue on that insurance even today. Instead I had to change to a group policy, then lost the group policy...

Each insurer may have had high risk pool and increased premiums, but when TX passed the state sponsored high risk pool insurance all that disappeared overnight. It was run thru blue cross/blue shield but the state set the price of it by legilslative act and adjusted it each year by law...

I haven't looked, the private plans I could buy before disappeared when the high risk pool came out. I'm assuming now that people can go thru the ACA and get pre existing coverage that they aren't offering it either now. My high risk pool wasn't all that expensive, at least I thought. It just...

Maybe I didn't spell out the time line correctly. Maybe up to 7 years ago I had regular insurance like everyone else and had it since around 1989. Just shopped for a policy and paid 100% of the premium myself. Then the state started the high risk pool and I got thrown into that. When the high...

DC now is going full reciprocity for conceal carry. https://www.facebook.com/EmilyMillerDC

Except it was fine one day, then the law went into effect and suddenly I became uninsurable to any carrier in the state because the state was now setting the premium price. One day you get competitive quotes from numerous companies and the next nope, it's set by the state now. Then that poofed...

Well as much as I hate to I guess I'm going to have to shop for a policy. Before ACA came about I had a policy I liked and it poofed Jan 1 when the ACA rolled out. Then I got company coverage but now I have to switch over to Cobra. My Cobra cost per month is $2800, I'm 43 and I was the youngest...

Yeah but we wouldn't be going 70 on the interstate either. Only one of which has an impact on my daily life. The last time I looked which was also probably about 15 years ago there were more deaths in TX where the contributing factor was listed as vehicle moving too slow than there were those...

I'm suprised they have copper in them being vacant. That includes wire, they'll normally grab the copper pipe and the wire, then they burn the wire to get the insulation off of it and take it to the scrap yard. I run into them a lot because when they can't find a place to rip stuff out of...

I never have panic attakcs, but at age 43 I've planned my whole life around avoiding people in general. For 25 years I worked at home being self employed. For about 10 years of that I lived in a town of 112 people and the only person I saw on a regular basis was my landlord who would come out to...

I did 1000mg of cortasteroids for 5 days. While I was doing it, it was great. I could have worked out in the field or shop for 10 hours a day for at least those 5 days. About 2-3 days after I finished I was pretty much hating life. Couldn't hardly move I was so sore, sore in places I literally...

Sadly I realise almost all of my fishing pictures predate the proliferatino of the digital camera. That's sad. I've got album after album of salmon I caught in AK, Halibut I caught in AK, largemouth up to 10lbs and various other fish, but none of them digital. I really don't know if I have...

Actually about 15 years ago when TX passed the law that required you to move over for faster traffice they had a big PR campaign including TV comericals and billboards about how it didn't matter how fast the person in the left lane was going, if you were going slower you needed to move over. As...

That's why I have grille guards on both my trucks, if you live in deer country and drive much at night in rural areas it really saves on the body damage.
