minus-squareLoafedBurrito@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 months agoI went without health insurance for years and I have epilepsy. The constant fear I was in daily, no Republican understands. I made $17 an hour and health insurance was $400 a month. Now it would be closer to $1700 a month looking at my options. Any time, any day I could have a seizure and would be homeless. I suggest all people who voted to raise our premiums by 3 times should have their health insurance taken away.
