One of these days, Roberts is going to get a hernia from twisting himself into a pretzel to support Obamacare.
Roberts ALREADY has a hernia, with strangulated testicles, to come up with this ever more tortured language to rationalize the imposition of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. In all that title, only one part is remotely reflective of reality, and that is the date of the law, “2010”. Every other word in its title poses an oxymoron, as no patients are protected, and whatever “protection” is provided is on the order of the local Mafia selling a little “protection” to the local merchants, so “Nuttin’ BAD happens, capesh’?”
“Affordable” went out the window the first time the supposed enrollees tried to renew their coverage, and the “care” provided is essentially all out-of-pocket, the premiums paid being essentially extortion money, as there shall NEVER be as much returned to most if not all the enrollees, as the sums paid in. Of course, the deal was, that EVERYBODY gets assessed, so a very few can be partially or fully subsidized, but then the care these “beneficiaries” is short shrift, shuttled in and out with a scarcely minimal amount of treatment and/or medication provided. As far at the “act” part goes, it it were not a bad act, it would be no act at all.
The whole thing is a huge prank pulled on the American people.
By that time his health care will be so bad they won't even pay for his Hernia Truss...
