Insurance
Medicare needs to be simplified and more affordable.
Obamacare is EVIL! Health insurance is a state issue and we can fix it!! I have bought my own health insurance since I was 22 years old. I am 53 years old. My point is this is not theory for me.
The Colorado legislature took out a 20 yr-bond that will end up costing Colorado Taxpayers roughly 200 million dollars to help fund Medicaid for Illegal Immigrants for one-year!!! We go into debt for twenty years to pay for services the regular taxpayer does not receive. I love to be altruistic, but we CANNOT afford it right now!
PS: Not to mention that our seniors and severely autistic need our help before people who do not believe in the law of our land!!!
Full coverage auto insurance is no longer affordable for the majority of first-time auto buyers. I have my theories of why this has happened and again we can rectify this problem.
NO on Initiative 317!
Please do not sign the petitions for Initiative 317 but if it gets on the ballot -- pretty please with sugar on top VOTE NO!!! The companies who are for it don't need it and if they care that much about the cause, they can easily combine donations and fund the proposed training and education programs. Not to mention, Job Corp already exists and several Colorado school districts are already funding and expanding industrial art programs. A friendly reminder, the weed tax was supposed to go to education too; Are our children's minds better off -- NO!
The revenue earned by the companies that need the Pinnacol Assurance insurance is more beneficial than squandering an asset of the people of Colorado for something that can be funded by the partners of the group sponsoring this ballot initiative.
Pinnacol Assurance is a last resort Worker' Compensation company with good rates and great customer service. If it is sold, this safety net ends in 2029. I wonder if I called Mike Rowe if he would help me fight this since it the guys with the "dirty jobs" who are helped by the current Pinnacol Assurance?
Initiative 317 will KILL important small businesses, in my opinion!!!
