I have UHC and they've been really good (max out of pocket like 2.5-3K for a year), but they've all been employer-sponsored plans, and they're definitely expensive.

Insurance is bullshit. I fell on the street and someone called an ambulance and they kept insisting that I go to the hospital. I reluctantly gave in after a while and my insurance didn't cover the ambulance bill. what the hell am I paying for?? Next time I'll walk myself home, thanks.
Also got billed for a CT scan that I never got?

Those numbers won't hold up into the general. Everyone is ride or die on both sides right now. Time heals all wounds.
Were you on your deductible?

I don't like the tone of Bernie's campaign lately, but any talk of an independent run is just diablosing.

Will the AP call it at 9? Or will they drag it out to fill coverage.

Now we know why John Podesta is so adamant about releasing those classified files.
HE KNOWS! AND HE'S TRYING TO WARN US!

The time is 9PM and polls are closing on the east coast and we have a projection to make.

At 9PM nbc news can project that donald trump is the winner on the republican side with a "significant" win.
Doot doot doot
At 9PM nbc news can project that Hillary Clinton is an evil alien bitch who will be in jail soon. Now to mika and Andrea Mitchell for more on this story

Man, I wonder what sorts of condiments Hillary Clinton likes, and how frequently she carries them around. If only someone knew.

Bernie fans should just be hoping for a "too close to call" after polls close

Other than insurance companies being greedy and all that, the real problem with healthcare costsis the massive amount of waste incentivized by a shitty payer system (not related to single vs multi payer, talking about how physicians and hospitals are reimbursed) that rewards defensive and shitty medicine. There needs to be a lot of nonsexy restrictions placed on how medicare reimburses doctors and then we can start to adjust the cost curve toward pretty much any other country. Alas the people in power that can lobby benefit from the status quo so it will take a while for incrementalism to work.
Just voted, there were 2 tables, one for democrats, one for republicans. They were explaining to 2 guys with trucker hats how to fill in the bubbles on the ballot at the republican table. I assumed they were first time Trump voters. We had paper ballots. Filled in the bubble for Hillary and through the machine it went.
Yeah, there's a lot of good paths forward with this. Like Unca Joe said, the ACA is a big fucking deal.

Did you fill in for delegates too?
Endorsement incoming.

So you've given up being a Euro and settled for being a Southerner, I'm proud of you Konka.
There were 11 other bubbles for democrats below them. It said to pick 6 so I randomly picked 6 based on how cool their names sounded.

I think you would be right if there was early voting, I think with no early voting it could be more of a indicator
For mine it said pick 7 so I just picked the 7 pledged Clinton delegates.
Pls big don

I haven't looked at the math lately but iirc Trump winning Indiana could put him back on the path towards winning the nomination outright. What if Trump offered Pence the VP spot in exchange for an endorsement. Doubt it will happen, and obviously IN will be tough for Trump to win given the amount of #NeverTrump+Cruz work being put in there...but it's interesting nonetheless.
oooh so those were the delegates!!!! ok good because I chose more on the Clinton line than the Sanders line.
Wolf trying to stoke that DEAD HEAT shit with bringing up how Bernie did in Vermont.
That would certainly be interesting.
That would certainly be interesting.
Wow.
That might be the biggest news today. Indiana could be ballgame on Trump getting to 1237.
This is what mine looked like:
So I voted Hillary and picked all the Clinton delegates.
I'm just hoping, I don't actually know for sure or have any sources saying that.

Except getting universal health care doesn't mean costs will be controlled. Both are important topics. ACA did decent work in both but given the enormous political capital required and the reluctance of either party to restart that battle in a meaningful way, we probably should have gotten a bit more out of the ACA given that healthcare still remains a commodity instead of a utility or w/e (hence the enormous amount of waste, shitty incentive structures like DRG's and fee for service still widely employed, inability to bargain for drugs, etc etc.).
Big fucking deal it is only because of how shitty healthcare was before, not that it did much to even bend the cost curve.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
A lot of people hate Pence, so I'm not sure how this is going to help Trump if he supports him.
Hoooooolys hit

Mine had Bernie on the left, with names underneath him and Clinton on the right side with names underneath her. I still don't understand why they don't make all the ballots the same statewide.
Me either, but a few places had special elections going on today so that's probably why.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
That's precisely why you need to update your registration too.
Considering we've seen what someone actually firing salvos into the legitimacy of a party will do in Trump, I'm pretty sure Sanders is doing nothing of the actual sort.
iZombie.
...he can't be legitimately that not self-aware, right? I could have sworn there were multiple articles during his winning spree where his campaign talked about how surprised they were at their success, and how it actually moved him to trying to go for a win rather than just push the issue. But there's no way he thought from the beginning he was Obama '08, right?
