That's what I have been trying to point out to people. Nicely said, Hillary has my vote.

i miss them…found it ironic that Obama the great quit after his first unbiased debate. he will be kicked around like a soccerball in a presidential debate and sad part about it is Clinton KNOWS THIS AS WELL AS THE GOP. I just want to see the faces on the Obamians when they realize that Hillary was actually nice to Obama compaired to what the REAL WORLD will be like.

part of it was all about getting votes and the other part was his ego actually believing that he is some sort of superman.

By bias in the tax code I suppose he is referencing the fact that in employee health plans the amount they pay insurance premiums is not taxed as income.

It would be fair enough to allow those who pay for their own health insurance out of pocket the same consideration.

However, it will not do nearly enough to make health coverage affordable for the great mass of the uninsured.

Likewise, health savings accounts are great IF you can afford to put the money aside, but they are only really practical for fixed, expected health care cost and no substitute for coverage.

And there he goes again with tort reform; lawsuits are not a major factor in the cost of health care. Again, this does nothing to help people get health insurance.

What is most objectionable about most of his plan is that it is a substitute for real action.

Which, come to think of it, is pretty much the entire Bush presidency in a nutshell.

I think it would depend on how you are obtaining insurance for your own business.
If you are going to have employees, then you may not have a problem getting insurance, as it would be a group plan. I don't know how many people have to be employed by the business, that is something you will have to check into.

If you are not going to have employees, and want to get individual insurance, then you are right, you would be in a high risk pool and it would cost you a bundle.

I would leave the information on your resume and if they ask you why you are seeking outside employment just tell them that the business is running smoothly enough for one of you to run it and you want to pursue your own career now.

you should see if you qualify for state health care. i live in california and i'm a business owner and personally i couldn't find anything under about 220 a month. i can't afford that so we got on medi-cal and have a share of cost which means that if we use it, we pay a co-pay but we do not pay anything monthly. it really helps if you have kids, like us. the kids have free coverage. anyway get in contact with social services, they will be able to help if you want to try that route.
