Why wouldn't he. His wife had the insurance and quit her job so they must have insurance or be fined...its a law now. I am sure you have heard?

You really don't get it. He wants to deny it for other people, but he thinks it's good for him. THAT is the definition of hypocricy.

Sorry he is doing what is now the law. Those pesky laws.

You are totally missing the point. It's about Do As I Say, Not As I Do. No one said hypocricy was illegal.

Everyone who has posted comments that we are all hypocrites has "admitted" it, including myself.

It seems a lot of the problem is that numerous people don't know the meaning of hypocricy.

What about celebrities who claim to want to protect the environment and conserve energy, yet they fly private planes, use excessive electricity to light their homes... Or they are anti-guns yet they make millions playing gun toting villains in movies.

Yes, there IS that!

Good point...and yes, COBRA is allowed to be 10% more expensive than buying a policy directly. It's considered an "administrative" expense and goes back to the former employer.

As a benefit consultant - take my advice - don't EVER go with COBRA...there are lots of options, including direct pay insurance, available.

I would say his buying the mandated insurance...and not going with the Cadillac policy of the gov't...shows he is not a hypocrite...quite the opposite.

Yes, we have, Lion. Maybe we're supposed to berate ourselves, or give ourselves 20 lashes with a wet noodle?{#emotions_dlg.confused1}{#emotions_dlg.scared}{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Yes I will admit it too. It is human nature. Those in denial find it easier to post examples of hypocrisy in others not realizing how obvious their own denial is to everyone.
