"fairness for all"????

[kentuck]

Is it fair to not offer coverage for pre-existing conditions for children?

Is it fair to have a lifetime limit on insurance coverage?

Is it fair to for insurance companies to cut people off when they get sick?

Is it fair to increase their premiums 10-12% per year?

What kind of "fairness" are they talking about??

1. Ah, yes, well you see it all depends on what you think is fair.

But in this context, the meaning of "fair" shall be whatever Fox News deems it to be.

2. Some kind of weird Tea Party definition of fairness?

I dunno... Just heard Boehner and Cantor say something about 'fairness' in a creepy way. Can someone translate this for us non tea party Americans?

3. Come on, what is their definition of All? They demand the fairness to

Tell my grandson, who was born preemie, that preemie is a preexisting condition so his asthma, his food allergies are all why he is ineligible to be insured.

They want to tell my brother, who battles lung cancer that he has reached his "lifetime limit" and now must die. They won't cover any more treatments. (You know, Sarah Plain and stupid's death panels)

They want to tell my younger brother they are dropping him because he did not reveal that he suffered from seizures (preexisting condition!) over 20 years ago.

They want to be able to tell my son his rates are going to skyrocket now because that "suspicious mole" is melanoma and that is just tough shit for him.

"They" would do that to all in the 47%, which is what THEIR definition of "fair" is.

These "in case shit happens" companies are in it for the money only. not your welfare.

4. And their definition as I understand it...

...is they want individual waivers like the ones corporations and big businesses get?? I understand corporations are "people" but do they have pre-existing conditions??
