Social Security

interesting and informative conversation going on here.

Oh I would love a hospitalization option. Basically I pay for everything else and then some. I wish I could forgo it completely but I can't risk everything we have and everything we have worked for if something were to happen to one of us.

my policy is basically a hospital policy.. I think (sorry but I'm not big on reading the small print, my bad, I know). I do get a lower charge by going to "network" doctors ... but like I've said, in 9 years, have been to the doctors office 3 times, once for what I thought was a nail fungus (turned out to be garden dirt) and twice for wax in my ears ( one of my ears has a really weird turn)... just hate paying $171 a month in "the event" I have something major that puts me in the hospital... but a 1 month or less stay could put a person in bankruptsy! (I know I totaly screwed up that work, but we don't have spell check LOL)

I'm so hoping the US goes the way Obama wants and is asking... as close to the Canadian way of health care we'll ever see!
