Food Stamps

To add to the rant: Where I live it is a Agricultural area. Many...and I mean many of the medium and big size farmers have be come instant millionaires over the last cpl years to to increasing crop prices and record yields. They are having to purchase new equipment, build new buildings and 3/4 million dollar houses, purchase muliple vehicles and evrything else they can think of to dump $ for tax purposes...yet the govt' subsadizes these farmers with hundreds of thousands of dollars on top of what they made. You tell me what other job gets the govt to pay your bills when profits are down? Why dont the subsadize my fkn income????? I love seeing these guys take 4 or 5 vacations, build new houses, drive several new vehicles and know that they are getting a tax payer handout check in the fkn mail every month!

Rant #2: I'm furious at my health care plan. Over the years my health care that is provided by my emplyer as part of my salarie package has become major medical at best. The deductable is so high it would break you to meet it for anything minor! In 16 years my wife and I have met are deductable ONCE! We both excersise and eat fairly healthy. We try to avoid use of medical services unless is absolutley necessary! YET..it's a group plan and several others are in ppor health, do nothing to take care of themselves and drive the premiums up with all of their health issues (many that could be avoided if they worked harder at staying healthy)! Their choices effect my fkn benifits which is part of my salary! Give me the damn $ that you pay for my coverage and I wiil find better, more affordable insurance at nearly half the cost...then I will pocket the rest! Why should I have to lose $ because others are sick?????

not true, group employer plans are not based on the health of the employee's. Its base on how many employees work their. zipcodes and of course the policy picked.

Not individualy...but as a whole premiums increase due to rising health care costs. You dont think that if a group has a cpl of long term cancer treatment members that it influences premium costs?

The more high risk ppl on a plan the higher thos costs. Obviously this is why some businesses push for health programs...to keep health care costs low!
