- loeg 5y agoThey are required to have some shared religious belief to be exempt from the ACA.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoIs there evidence that Obama wanted those religious exemptions and bullshit cost sharing plans? I would be willing to bet that was a concession to other politicians in Congress in order to get ACA passed.
- rpmisms 5y agoI'm thankful the concession was made. The lower price of cost-sharing made it possible for my parents to keep eating while providing for the family.
- rconti 5y agoThat's great until the church decides your parents are sinners and refuse to cover anything, and have no consequences for stealing their money.
- rpmisms 5y agoThey're not church-run organizations. This is reductionist, inaccurate, and I would go so far as to say bigoted.
- rconti 5y agoYou're welcome to think that about me, but health sharing is almost entirely scams using "religion" as a cover. See my other link in this thread. I'm happy for your family that they got a good one.
- good8675309 5y agoPeople voluntarily join health sharing groups. They are run by non-profits, some of which have no religious affiliation.

- nickff 5y agoThe parent comment never said anything about President Obama's desires regarding the Affordable Care Act, just that his 'brilliance' resulted in this outcome.
- paulddraper 5y agoYou misread. Parent thought those are a decent option and it's unfortunate that their availability is restricted.
