    I deduce that the folks at Acme don’t cover anything that doesn’t involve chasing a roadrunner.

    And his tail still drags on the floor even after the doctor visit.

    This is my argument against people that say medicare for all would cost people in the insurance industry their jobs. “Good”.

    I didn’t know “deductible” was Latin for “screw you”, but do know that “vegan” is Native American for “bad hunter”. :-)

    I also know that “gullible” is not in the dictionary. :-X

    So true. I have a $100 deductible and the bill came to $98.40.

    I have “American Fat-boy Syndrome”, and as such have in several years exceeded my max deductible and my max out-of-pocket expenses, meaning for the rest of the year I don’t pay either. On the one hand, thanks, Obama! On the other, sucks that it is necessary.

    The difference between health insurance and, say, car insurance, is that you will get sick at some point. You are essentially banking your future payouts.

    I know that’s not how deductibles work. Make sure you study your medical plans before enrolling.

    Make health care costs transparent. Let the free market rule.

    “Defututis” is L. for “thoroughly scr*w*d”.

    Deductible is not a term we know in Europe, same thing goes for co-payments and bankruptcy due to health care costs.But our taxes are a little higher, so there is that.
