Why Obamacare Sucks
« on: February 13, 2014, 07:55:03 pm »
Obamacare (the Affordable Care Act, ACA) reveals something about ALL health-insurance ... it needs many 'young invincibles' to sign up (paying high costs for OTHER PEOPLE, themselves not needing health-care)

Kaiser Family Foundation says 40% of enrollment needs to be YI's in order to balance-out the old, sick 60%, the Daily Oklahoman reports.

:bunny: :bunny: :bunny: thinking about it  :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny: :bunny:
I think the thing for the ACA-workers to do is just BE the best deal ... maybe 'taking licensure-fees out of doctors who allow patients on other plans to be seen' or 'paying the doctors more than other plans'---just generally BEING the best, and letting 'time' decide if they're good.

We know that Obama sucks. Here in New York jobs are being cut because of him.

Besides not being able to keep our own doctor as we were repeatedly told,  ::) or the fact that it will put 2.5 million people out of work,  :( or that it requires businesses to sign a paper saying that when they fire people, it is not because of Obamacare, therefore perjuring themselves,  :o or relying on younger people to sign up to pay for the the older people which they are not doing, or people halfway signing up on the website and not having insurance yet but thinking that they do have it,  >:( or the website not working at all?

Is that what you mean?

Other than a few minor points as mentioned, it's practically perfect, doncha think?  :bad:

Remember: The law passed in March 2010. It was to go into full effect on Jan. 1, 2014. That means the administration had almost four years to get its ducks into a row. Four years. That was more time than it took us to win World War II, which we fought across three continents, a bunch of islands and two oceans.

And yet here we are, four years later, and the administration has spent the past six months effectively rewriting the law for both political and practical reasons.

It shouldn’t be able to do this, because it is, you know, a law. The president doesn’t write laws. Congress does. He signs them and it’s his job to implement them. If he can’t write laws, he can’t rewrite them either.

What are you guys belly aching about? President Obama's the best leader ever!He's done so much more than any other leader. You try to be president against a do nothing republican party. It's incredible that anything was even done during his term! In fact I heard there are a lot of happy Americans who now have affordable health care! You think Obama sucks? Ask the hundreds of dead Ukrainian citizens because of their corrupted President & tell me our President sucks!

Obamacare is a total disaster and will never work.  People are going to have to wait weeks or months to even see any doctor and most doctors aren't even in the system. 
As far as Obama being the best President ever, a person would have to know nothing about what is going on with this country to think that.

You hear that America? The leader of the free world is better than the leader of some second world country! Rejoice!!

There are a lot of flaws in the affordable health care act.

 :) Government has enough trouble running itself. It needs to get out of health care.  :)

Yes It sucks, but what do you do if you don't have insurance? You are just stuck with it! I feel like I will be part of the problem. I really don't have a choice, though. Wish I did!

I checked to see how much I would need to pay to have insurance, and it is ridiculous. I can't afford that. I'm in the process of looking for a job, but I can't afford health insurance. I wish I could, then I wouldn't have to pay out of pocket expenses for all this health care stuff I need and every time I go to the doctor, dentist, optometrist or when I get sick.

Aaaaaaaaahahahahaha!!!  linderlizzie!!!  You hit the NAIL on the HEAD!  That was just plain AWESOME!  LMFAO!!!

Reading through the other posts here, I see there is at least one person who still lives in LALALAND.  Guess they'll wake up to the TRUTH eventually.  Then again, maybe not.
