Despite Widespread Confusion, Latinos Optimistic About Obamacare As It Rolls Out

“We’ve heard nothing but good things about the law,” Paloma Zuleta, a spokeswoman for the League of United Latin American Citizens, or LULAC, told Fox News Latino. “Many of our members will be getting insurance for the first time and that is pretty exciting.”

The group, which brands itself as the oldest and largest Hispanic civil rights group in the U.S., has been an open champion of Obamacare – going as far as setting up a website to help walk applicants through the process and planning an online seminar Tuesday night to answer concerns about the law and application process.

“The Affordable Care Act will help make health insurance coverage more affordable and accessible for millions of Americans,” LULAC declared on its website. “For Latinos, the law will address inequities and increase access to quality, affordable health coverage, invest in prevention and wellness, and give individuals and families more control over their care.”

I hope they remember to thank the 28 year old white American guy who will be paying for the healthcare of an illegal alien family of ten.

The illegal alien invaders from Mexico are used to a Socialist Government, and they come up here to help Obama transform America into another third world Socialist country.

GO HOME, MEXICANS!

Many are paid cash for domestic work and of course, don’t pay income tax. Hell yes they are excited, now they get healthcare paid for by taxpayers. This is a joke

LULAC has been so far up Obama and the Democrats ass that they couldn’t get them out with a tow truck.

Why didn’t LULAC create an organization for Hispanics who needed insurance and didn’t or couldn’t get it? Then their combined buying power would have made it economically feasible and sustainable for insurance companies to offer them various affordable plans.

The answer is simple, Hispanic leaders are only out for power, not for helping legal Hispanics in America get ahead.
And when it comes to illegal hispanics, you know the story.

Until American Hispanics wake up and see that they are being used, there is nothing else that can be done. Most are so blinded by leftist/Democrat propaganda that only radical brain surgery could correct their mental flaws.

The truth hurts, doesn’t it?

Because they’re economic illiterates that don’t understand you either have to steal other peoples’ money or enslave the person providing the healthcare to make it “free” for them.

I know my family can’t afford this at all, and so many others. This is going to collapse the economy.

Some of us have been waiting for a currency collapse or some other failure that results from the Fed. If these costs are true, this is going to bring it on very quickly.

I still hate GW Bush for flooding the US with Hispanic immigrants I knew would NEVER vote for the GOP in any appreciable numbers. That SOB sold us out to provide cheap labor for his buddies, condemning the GOP to minority status in the process.

It is going to be hell electing Republicans going forward due to the massive influx of Dem-only Hispanics.

Anybody who thinks the GOP can genuinely win over the Hispanic vote is brain dead or confused.
