>> “If you like your health insurance you can keep it,” Barack Obama promised

Obama is a liar.

When these companies drop health benefits I wonder if they compensate the employee with the money they save or do the stock holders benefit?

and the media crucified the elder Bush on “ no new taxes” but remains silent on “ if you like your health insurance, or doctor you can keep them”

Paraphrasing the devils words......

Most of these folks on Mini meds are low information voters.

When they realize how screwed they are, will they still vote for Democrats?

Democrats may be killing themselves. Hopefully they are.

RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE was designed in the Romney Agenda
and imposed by Romney and Kennedy.

BOTH Parties support statism and RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE.

Built in design.

The only purpose of Obamacare has nothing to do with ‘providing health care or health insurance’.

A patient of mine (in a very BLUE state that has fervently embraced Obamacare) recently lost her health insurance. She told me that she attempted to enroll this past week on the state exchange and, after many consultations, they couldn’t determine for her how she should enter her income correctly. Wow. She was told they’ll have a “team of experts” to help assist her in a few weeks. As of now, she’s in limbo and has to wait. If the BLUE states are having trouble with this debacle then it cannot possibly survive.

We have a window of opportunity to do great damage to the amnesty push. While people are in shock over what Obamacare has done to their health costs they will be receptive to discussion of how much more it will soon cost. They should be reminded that those costs will be greatly increased with tens of millions of illegals granted amnesty and added to the rolls of freeloading ObamaCare recipients.

I have lost my Medicare Advantage. At least if I want to keep my doctor I have.

The group and the insurer will not renew this year’s contract. No contract no doctor.

The doctor will accept a limited number of insurers but will not accept any new medicare patients. Medicare Advantage is acceptable but not ordinary medicare.

But if you don't own a house, you have no need for homeowners insurance. If you don't own a car, you have no need for auto casualty insurance. Similarly, if you have no assets at all (other than your human capital) why would you want health insurance?

Obamacare was crafted to add to the bottom line of the big insurance companies, then sold via State Media to the sheeple. The insurance companies profit, the politicians profit thru kickback donations from the insurance companies. Well, two out of three ain't bad.

And, remember, imposing one's worldview on others is 90% of what liberalism is all about...

'Bout says it all.

Ironically, the very people that ObamaCare is designed to help may be the ones most hurt by its enactment.

Liberalism strikes again.

You should have told her the most feared words in America, "We are from the government; we are here to help you".

Don't forget that not one Republican voted for it, neither in the House, nor in the Senate. It was plain and simple pushed down the throat of the American people against their will.

“She better keep an eye on her bank account”

People should seriously focus on plans to transfer their wealth to the next generation; these crappy plans being offered will ensure that your entire estate is subject to liens by the time you’re in the ground. I believe this WAS an intended consequence of destoying the current (imperfect) healthcare model.
