If you need a bit of garage space...

I can be happy without being rich.
In fact, I've never been poorer and I've never been happier.
I'm just never been sadder about what I see going on around me.

That's all I ever aspired for. To work hard, do the right thing, and enjoy the fruits of my labor.
I had no desire to be rich. In fact I had an aversion to it. I wanted to be like my mentors in life where the greatest satisfaction was to enjoy traditional middle class values. Now, the middle class has been plundered, raped, and murdered.
I'm turning 65 and The Teamsters just sent me a letter saying it's been nice but it's time to say goodbye to their insurance and hello to Medicare. Why do I have to now have the same coverage as the low class scum of life who never did anything to earn it. The level of healthcare is going to drop dramatically in my case and I find it unfair and disgusting that I have to now wallow in the same cesspool of medical coverage that all the morons, mental defectives, and psychopaths are swimming in.
Life is unfair. Get over it. Yah. Sure. Middle class used to mean that by doing the right thing you could at least get a shot at fairness. Now that one thing about middle-class has been taken away forever. All middle class is now is a title you give to people that work for money instead of being given money.

My father and mother are in Medicare. So what exactly are you saying?

My parents are on Medicare also. They pay supplemental insurance as well. About $400 a month. My Dad just went over to the VA and just set that up in addition. He will get free prescriptions now.

The health care system for people over 65 TOTALLY SUCKS. Everyone is now thrown into the same insurance cesspool. Even if you are Donald Trump, your Obamacare healthcare needs are totally dictated by rules and regulations that restrict and diminish your freedom on the care you choose to have. You are reduced to the lowest common denominator that includes morbidly obese, alcoholic, smokers on welfare who never worked sucking the system dry because they all want a free Mobility Scooter that the sell on ebay six months later to give the money to their crackhead daughter to go clubbing while they stay home in the trailer to care for her 6 kids all with different fathers.

Don't accuse me of painting with a broad brush. It's the way it is if you clean your glasses.

I paid a ton of dough to carry my Teamsters insurance. Probably 3 times what Medicare/Medicaid and all its supplements cost. The Teamsters didn't give me something for nothing like you all want to believe. I earned the right by breaking my freakin balls all my life to have the best health care available to me and now the gum'mint says Nope, you gots to have Obamacare which Doctors and Hospitals are refusing to accept because it sucks so bad. The remaining healthcare providers that accept Obamacare are either:
1. Indian and Haitian doctors with degrees from the Vetenary Institute of Grenada who see Obamacare as a cash cow by scheduling 30 patients an hour and double billing and ordering a ton of tests from a clinic run buy their cousin, or..
2. Doctors and hospitals who are forced to dumb down their medical care because Section 451, Article 63B, Subsection iii Paragrapgh 549 Line 1,114 says that the hospital will only get paid a dollar ninety eight to remove a brain tumor.
Meanwhile, Walmart is overrun by 15 hundred dollar Mobility Scooters that Obamacare paid $6,000.00 for. Smoke six packs of cigarettes all your life and you are rewarded for bad behaviour and irresponsability.


So, if you're a young adult, what's the motivation now to plan for a better future now? NONE!

There. I said it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. F##k you all you f#####g socialists and liberals.

By the way, I have friends sucking the VA drier than the Sahara Desert.
One gets his monthly trips to Costco paid for by the VA because VA pays him mileage for doctor's visits. He makes the appt. then cancels it and still gets reimbursed for the mileage. What did he do to get 100% disability? He served in Turkey in the late sixties for two years as a radio operator. Ten years ago he filed for 100% disability due to deafness that he "claimed" was caused by wearing headphones forty years ago. They gave it to him. What do I get for shitting in the jungle keeping my head low and trying not to fart loudly? ZILCH.
The stories go on and on.

Now the whole forum wishes you hadn't asked....
 
Without going into detail........................ I have been a union electrician for years and now due to a career ending injury am in this quagmire of socialistic system and can say first hand IT SUCKS !!!! and the union is of no help at all. But on the bright side of things I wake up every morning on the right side of the dirt.

 
Don't accuse me of painting with a broad brush. I can paint with a broad brush perfectly fine without your help.

There, I fixed it for you.

You realize that none of the examples you gave have anything to do with Obamacare, don't you? I mean, go ahead and hate it. Just try to hate it for something it does. You can hate your governor for things like the mobility scooter debacle. He is the one who got rich defrauding Medicare.

Obamacare, the legal system, the healthcare system, all of government........... makes no difference.
All part of the Catch 22 system that feeds itself fat and rich.
Yes, there is a perpetual motion machine. The trouble is you can never stop it. Once you click the "ON" switch, it keeps running until it explodes.
Then civilization has to start all over again back at square one.
The British Empire was before us. China is next right after us. In fact they are already starting. India after them.
 
Unbelievable rant, holy ****!

I know tons of very happy middle class people. The notion that the middle class no longer exists is preposterous. I live in a middle class neighborhood and I watch all of my neighbors go to work every day.
 
Now that's funny, Stan.

It's too bad that you're so cynical. Sometimes people just do the best they can. To characterize them in such a negative fashion is unfortunate. Call me a liberal if you wish. Libertarianism benefits the strong, by the way, the very group that you despise so strongly.
 
I am a ultra Civil Libertarian. Stay the f**k out of my business and I'll stay out of yours.
Government is a tool where each special interest pushes their own greedy self serving agenda under the guise of Democracy.
Right wingers enact laws to make the poor subsidize their yachts and left wingers want the rich to pay all their freight,
Civics books call it the checks and balances in government. Civil Libertarians call it for what it us, everybody trying to stick their hand in your pocket.


Example: FEMA. Without them, you'd be out of business. Why am I paying to rebuild New Orleans when people chose to live where God and Mother Nature says should be under water and will do it again.

FEMA had announced they would not rebuild houses devastated by hurricane Sandy if it were a secondary residence. In other words, no insurance, you're SOL..... these greedy people are bitching about it... the typical American way, hand out for nothing. When did people get so lazy in America?

I find that unlikely, you're in Ohio for Christ sakes.........
