Blogging Is Back On

FIRST... I will resume blogging as of now. I can use my real identity Goolag account with age verification to access my posts, and then return comment using my nom de guerre logging in with name and URL. That is, until I am threatened with loss of my Glypto Dropem Goolag account and all my data in which case, I will have a difficult decision to make.

 

SECOND... I went through the process of activating my Obongocare health insurance renewal for 2026 yesterday. For 2025, the full freight cost of the plan we chose was $2575.37 per month and the subsidy we qualified for was $2186 making our premium an affordable $389.37 per month. Since the Demon-Crap gubmint shutdown circus, unless you are a welfare recipient the 400% of the poverty rate subsidies created during COVID are gone. Keeping the plan we had last year is going to cost us, BIGLY! Are you ready for this....

$3085.79 per month or $37,029.48 for the year!

Fully 30% of our combined estimated annual gross earnings! For comparison, this is almost double our fucking monthly mortgage payment. Thankfully we have no car payments but this is NOT affordable by any stretch.

So our plan is as we have done before. We will save what we would expect to pay in increased premiums in a separate account and pay cash for services. Neither of us have chronic health issues. As we have seen before, doctors love it when you pay cash and charge way less than they charge insurance companies for the same services. They get paid on the spot with no complicated medical billing and coding or a waiting period to get paid.

As it stands now, the open enrollment period ends on December 15th. Payment will be due by January 1st. We will simply be automatically cancelled due to non-payment. If... and that's a BIG IF... the gubmint decides to fix this mess and will cover a large chunk of the premiums meaning a larger subsidy than before (the $2186 from last year will make my payment still unaffordable at $899.79 per month) before January 1st, we'll pay the premiums. If they totally revamp the insurance mess there will need to be a new open enrollment period to sign up for whatever the new offering might be.... if it is actually affordable.

If gubmint does nothing... Obongocare and the health insurance industry is going down the shitter... WHERE IT BELONGS! The estimates I have heard are 20 million people no longer paying premiums and simply dropping out like we are about to do.

So I have a question for the hardcore Demon-Craps and TDS sufferers (I could name names, but you know who you are). It is the same one you always ask Trump supporters when he does what he does that makes you Libturds wig the fuck out:

"Is this what you voted for?" 

Question For The I.R.S.

I know you fed motherfuckers are monitoring all electronic media and messaging, so I pose a question for you to pass along to the I.R.S. in this blog. First a little background.

The due date for returns and taxes due has been pushed to May 17th because, you know... COVID!! I filed my tax returns on March 5th, which is a couple of weeks later than normal for me, but that was the recommendation. We are due a substantial refund. Normally we receive a refund direct deposit within 5 days. It has been two months as of today and we have received nothing.

I realize you changed the rules regarding unemployment due to the phony pandemic and the first $10,200.00 became exempt after I already filed. My wife collected during this period, and all of a sudden, several thousand dollars magically became tax exempt, skewing my Adjusted Gross Income. I use H&R Block's Tax Cut program and filed everything electronically. According to the program, I was to do nothing on the fed side, because the I.R.S. would recalculate and correct the return and send the proper refund amount. For my state return, I had to file a paper amended return. I originally owed the state $311, and that has become a $542 refund. I mailed the amended return 0n April 14th by certified mail, and less than two weeks later, received a paper check from the state for the $542. The May 17th date is fast approaching.

So here is my question: "IF I DO NOT RECEIVE MY REFUND BY MAY 17TH, DO I GET TO CHARGE THE I.R.S. THE SAME INTEREST AND PENALTIES I WOULD INCUR IF I DID NOT FILE OR PAY ON TIME?"

I WILL ALSO INCLUDE THE $4.15 POSTAGE FOR SENDING MY AMENDED STATE RETURN CERTIFIED MAIL. 

Imagine how much fun it would be to file a lien against the federal building in Hartford for non-payment. How about garnishing some wages of I.R.S. Commissioner Charles P. Rettig? Call for a full audit of the federal treasury? You know, the fun stuff they like to put citizens through acting like the jack-boot goons they are.
