Posted by beef rallard]]> Fri, 21 Sep 2012 14:41:15 -0700 The Stranger My father-in-law is nearly 67, but needs to keep working because his job is the only reason his 58-year-old wife has health insurance. Sure, she'll qualifiy for Medicare at 65, but that's eight years without coverage if he retires now.

I'm 55, but my husband is only 44. Apparently I'll be grandfathered into Medicare, but under Romney/Ryan, he won't be. As things stand now, he can't get coverage, because he isn't covered by his employer, and my employer won't let me carry him because we're a same-sex couple.

These conservative "values" aren't only dividing old against young; they're creating artificial divisions between individual members of the same family.
