    Short-term, limited duration plans are one affordable, flexible option, but we recognize they’re not the right choice for everyone. They may offer certain protections, but not all the benefits that typical health insurance offers. Learn more ⬇️pic.twitter.com/LVS0jb4NuG

        Best thing about these plans, is how a guy can still get screwed by COBRA, after 1 of those, But, Alex, knows some how its a way for the rich, to get richer, like they're just buying money. LIKE THEY'RE JUST BUYING MONEY.

        These limited policies are a bandaid. What innovations have you and your boss come up with to provide affordable, accessible and full coverage for the masses? Where are these "great, beautiful, affordable" plans the president promised?

        State insurance boards should exam what these “short-term” policies offer and their restrictions. Old axiom: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Health insurance that is cheap is cheap health insurance w/limited coverage. Medically induced bankruptcies will increase two-fold!

        You know what’s the right choice for every child? Choosing not to rip them from their parents’ arms, lie to them, and hold them indefinitely causing irreversible trauma.

        Don’t take it from me. Here’s an application for a short-term junk plan that’s currently on sale. Any mental health checkups? DENIED. Heart problems? DENIED. Diabetes? DENIED. Overweight? DENIED. Pregnant or looking to adopt? DENIED. pic.twitter.com/gXt0ehXEwq

        Where are the children? When will they be returned to their families? Hundreds are still in your care while reports are mounting that they have been neglected, abused, and forcibly drugged.

        What we could all benefit from is not being at the mercy of for-profit health insurance. All the other major developed nations have had universal healthcare for decades. It is a disgrace the we do not. You work for us, not the health insurance industry. Stop advertising for them.
