Health care reform supporters, how will I be able to keep and afford my BlueCross BlueShield insurance

Health care reform supporters, how will I be able to keep and afford my BlueCross BlueShield insurance?
I am employed by a major city, working for an extreme left-wing Democrat mayor who will most definitely opt for Obama-care for the city workers. How can I afford to keep my current health care plan for my family? Will my newborn child suffer because of limited health care? "Dustin", the mayor IS a far, left-wing liberal. It's a fact. Secondly, learn how to spell, moron. It's "their", not "there".

Listen this thing will not hold up in court, do not worry if it passes and it is a big if...Vote Independent. My logic for this is that the political parties are already corrupted and controlled by these lobbyist institutions and with Independents in office it is harder for corporations to control the legislation and the politicians will not be able to hide as well as they do There are no lefties or righties, just Democrat and Republicans, of course those numbers are shrinking. Independents and other parties are slowly gaining, I figure in 10 years there will only be Independents and minority parities

Trust me, anything is better than BC BS. I used to work for them. The more claims I denied, the higher bonus I received. That is a horrible horrible company. I don't know why you would even think about "trying" to afford your insurance with them, especially if you have other options. I suppose if you wanted to help fund the CEO's next mini mansion you could continue paying there high premiums! Also, if our Universal health care system is as successful as every other developed nations Universal health care system, your newborn child will actually have a better chance at living longer than the children being born under our current system. Currently the US is rated #37 on the World Health Org's list. Every country above us has Universal Health Care. I really don't know why US citizens are so happy to settle for number #37. Its so sad that people are not striving to be the best anymore, and just settling to be one of the worst.

Why is it that every time a republican mentions a Democrat there always a "far left liberal"? Any who the most common argument I hear from anti health care reform people is "why should I have to pay for people who can't afford there own health care"? So I ask why should I care if you can afford your own healthcare? Sounds like a personal prob to me.

Do you think putting my child on daycare is right at the time when the swine flu gets worse

Do you think putting my child on daycare is right at the time when the swine flu gets worse?
Is putting my child (that is 2yrs. old, No health problems) in a day care the right thing now that the flu season especially with the swine flu getting worse is coming soon. What do you think? Can this affect my son?

Your child will be exposed to a thousand and one illnesses throughout his life. You can't protect him from everything. Do I think that the approaching flu season and what with swine flu, this can affect your son? I'd be an idiot liar if I said "Oh, of course not!" Come on, be real. Of course it can affect your son! Did you really have to ask? WILL it affect your son? I'd have no way to know with 100% certainty. Any time people gather in close quarters for extended periods of time, there's always an increased likelihood for disease transmission. It goes with the territory. This is an unavoidable fact of life. If it were my son who was 2 years old again, I'd put him in day care and I did just that BEFORE he was 2. But this is a decision that no one can make for you.
2 :
That's for you to answer. All I can do is give food for thought. There are numerous potential problems that could occur, including contaction of the swine flu. Did you check the daycare out to see if you think it's a good place? Have you looked into more than one daycare? Have you considered other options, like sharing responsibility for caring for your son with your husband in the household?

A personal injury attorney might take it. But you have to show there was some kind of significant injury to the child. Otherwise, I don't think any kind of attorney will take it. It depends on how long it went on and how it affected the child. This is NOT a civil rights issue unless it was a form of discrimination.
2 :
There are personal injury attorneys who specifically focus on childcare negligence, including improper medication. That could even fall under a civil rights violation, which would not require physical damages, as the violation of civil rights is damage in and of itself. Forcing medication on a child that doesn't need it and without the parent's consent seems like a huge violation. Search your state's bar directory for attorneys that practice in civil rights (children) or personal injury. You can also search by state & specialty at Martindale Hubbell.

I think it depends upon what you are trying to do. Are you trying to sue for damages? Was your child injured or did he/she suffer pain or distress? If your child was injured, you need a personal injury attorney. If the fact that the day care forced medication on your child just really makes you furious, but at the end didn't cause more harm than that, I don't know that you have a cause of action. This may be why attorneys are being sort of vague in their refusals to represent you. They have to be careful about saying "you don't have a case," because if it turns out later that the person did have a case, and the person misses a statute of limitations based on that advice, that attorney could be on the hook. I would visit another few personal injury attorneys and ask them some more blunt questions about whether you even have a case. Sorry, I would be furious too, I just don't know what else to tell you.
