Does MSNBC have a thing about hiring Lesbians?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.


If there is nothing wrong with it, why do you bring it up?

That Sally Kohn character always knowingly presents misleading arguments. She had glowing reports about the NY insurance site. But of course, it has NOTHING to do with the Federal site. Except in comparison to the Federal site it was in itself a joke of a launch. It took me about 10 days to get to the point where I could evaluate plans. Also the fact that she saved $5K is also misleading. Look what she claimed she had before ....about $1K a month with $7K deductible and $36K out of pocket max.. Are you kidding me? That's not insurance. That's extortion. So, her experience in no way is representative of anything.....and she knows it but NEVER will miss an opportunity to sling it. In my case, the policy I had thru NY Bridge plan was equivalent to a platinum plan and heavily subsidized. So, it is not at all surprising that the cost of a similar plan now is 40% more. In addition, I expect it to go way up again next year as the plan I chose was with a non profit Health Care provider. Their rates were inordinately low and will subsequently sky rocket when the plan is inundated by people with preconditions (like me) and few young healthy people sign up. I would bet on it.
