"Obamacare"

[ednksu]

Edna, let's stop pretending that "modern day healthcare" isn't anachronistic as eff. K? Thx

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Gallup: Number of Democrats who say Obamacare has hurt them is up by 10 points. These same dumbasses will continue to vote for Democrats.

It's kinda of... I don't know what the right word for it is - how as corrupt and incompetent as our government has proven to be, so many people still want to put it in charge of our healthcare, or more so than it already is.

I guess it's the desire for more "free" stuff. It's kind of like voluntary imprisonment - you trade in your freedom, the free stuff is crap, and somebody else still ends up paying for it, but it still seems to make some people happy because it's "free" to them. The problem is that they want to impose the same shitty system on everybody else (how else would it be paid for) and most people (I hope) would rather work for a living, enjoy the fruits of their labor, etc.

I can't believe how much of a gasbag you are.  Are you by chance near retirement, or in it now?

No, I'm early 30s, just entering my prime earning - and fleecing - years. So naturally I'm pretty concerned about the direction this country is headed.

I understand your concerns, but I think you may be a little out of touch. I would suggest getting better sources of information.

Unhealthy obsession with money distorts his world view

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Lazy and stupid people are always so jealous of how hard working and smart people have better lives than they do. It's one of my favorite things to laugh at.

[Spracne]

Obamacare has ruined this country and our collective way of life. Smdh

this is a place to vent Spracne, please continue

The America I grew up in would rather have a young person with leukemia die for lack of insurance than let someone else potentially leach off the communal good will.

[Spracne]

Id rather kill 1 innocent person than let 9 guilties go free is what im saying.

[star seed 7]

  amen

[Cire]

If everybody just got jobs and worked hard we wouldn't need welfare

Sorry you grew up in an America without Medicaid, SSI and Medicare. They would have helped out.

Opposition to government run healthcare is the same thing as wishing death on a 6 year old, CAN'T YOU SEE THAT!!!!!?????

Before Obama care people were dying in front of hospitals because they didn't have insurance and couldn't get any.

Can we all agree that the previous paradigm for health insurance (minimize and shed risk), while a good business model, sucks for a lot of people with chronic illnesses?

We could have had a simple one page insurance regulation that didn't involve the IRS, or even the government in general. But, there probably wouldn't have been free contraception, so the dems would never have voted for it.

I assume you're talking about lifetime caps on coverage, which everyone agreed could be eliminated at virtually no cost to anyone.

I personally like the idea of paying hundreds of dollars per month to hedge risk against millions of dollars of financial liability.

Surprise surprise - CBO revises its phony-balony numbers to show that Obamacare actually will add to the deficit (even after the trillion+ in new taxes). http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/cbo-projections-indicate-obamacare-will-raise-deficits-131-billion_816288.html

Let's be honest, here. The CBO has lost a great deal of credibility in the integrity of their projections and, to be fair, it's not entirely their fault. Legislators have perfected the art of manipulating CBO scoring rules to result in "revenue neutral" findings.

So I don't fault the CBO as much as all the dumbshits who abandoned all common sense and actually believed that subsidizing insurance for millions of Americans, and expanding Medicaid to millions more, wouldn't actually increase the deficit. And again, to be fair, I think a lot of the libtards knew full well that it would - they just lied about it.

Things not to release or discuss prior to mid-terms:

1.  New AG-Check
2.  Executive Order(s) on immigration-Check
3. Updated Obamacare Premiums-Check

That's odd. More obfuscation from "the most transparent administration in history." http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/oct/14/obamacare-website-wont-reveal-insurance-costs-for-/?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS
