David Martinez bought what he thought was a health insurance plan through a Christian health-sharing ministry. It turned out to be worthless. He now owes $129,000 in medical bills currently in collections.

1. This is what the Rethugs want to do nationally. Let fly by night

"insurers" sell worthless policies across state lines, then hide when the bills come due. Trump's "Healthcare" in a nutshell.

2. In My Experience, When a Business Advertises as "Christian" They are Usually Shady

“Christian” is often used as a sales tool by the unscrupulous.

3. Looks like a definition for fascism.

"religion, politics, health care, and money"

Healthcare is a new addition, but it fits the same mold because everyone needs it. Authoritarian regimes use vital services as a controlling factor to keep the population submissive and dependant on their good graces. The military and the militarized police force is ever ready for orders to reinforce the commands of the leader.

4. Is this the Christian health care cost share that is advertised on Dave Ramsey program?
