Rant: MN Care health insurance SUCKS
Well, after FINALLY getting around to scheduling an appointment to have my wisdom teeth removed, I find out that there was legislation passed last Oct. to save money by reducing MN Care benefits. Not only do I now have ZERO dental, but I also have no eyeglass coverage and no psychologist visit coverage. My limit on medical coverage if I'm ever in an accident has also been gutted.

WTF am I going to do now? I can't afford much right better health insurance, I'm on a tight enough budget as it is. Thankfully my wisdom teeth aren't hurting yet, but with my luck they will be. Ugh, I'm so screwed.

2. MAY DAY! MAY DAY!
WHY Should our elected officials have better health care than the people that they serve? write down your stories of pain sorrow and greed, send them to and call your elected officials on the week of may first and let your voice be heard. Thank You. The Democratic Kid...

3. Minnesota Care is just a screw job and Blue Cross still gets the money.
Minnesota is where The famous HMO's started. The HMO think tank state. Even doctors comment how even people with regular insurance out of Minnesota have so much less coverage than other states.

St. Martins table tonight at 7pm Cedar Riverside area to discuss problem. Union, nurses etc will be there.
