If it is encouraging, let him encourage; it it is contributing to the needs of tthers, let him give generously; it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully. Rom 12:8
Everywhere Marxism has been attempted it has failed miserably and the people suffered. The Tea Party and its politicians have taken untold amounts of abuse at the hands of the Obama regime and its supporters for the crime of sounding a warning of what was coming for America and now have been proven right. They have not only been proven right, they were understating the warnings of the storm coming from Obamacare. Ted Cruz was heckled and jeered by the suck up media and OB's closest Comrades in both Parties, only to now be joined as the curtain is opened.
Could the President be any more of a hypocrite? After drawing another of his lines in the sand he finally relents and approves some allowance for Americans to keep the policies they like. He lied to America, period and now we are all paying for it. In a fair world he and the Dems would admit their fraudulent claims of no disruption in American lives and call for delay in implementation of this abortion. This was not the plan anybody including they wanted and so we are getting a Frankenstein of a program.
When Obozocare was shoved down the people’s throats in the middle of the night when this was not even a completed bill. This was the bill which was heading for a Senate compromise and was supposed to go to a conference committee between the two houses where the problems would be ironed out. Of course the hardcore Maxists like Barak Hussain wanted nationalized healthcare, but knew he didn’t have the votes even in his Party, so he settled on Senator Wyden’s mandated program as a transition plan towards single payer. It was then going to a conference where the issues could be ironed out one by one before the two houses voted again.
A funny thing happened on the way to the conference committee which was, fat Uncle Ted died and the Tea Party got Brown elected into his spot. This forced the Senate to break nearly every one of their rules to avoid the conference and on Christmas Eve they passed Obamacare bringing us to where we are now. Just like predicted, there is a complete lack of ability of the gummit to produce a fairly simple website for customer signups. The people in charge were more interested in taking care of their friends with graft then they were making a functioning website. How Mrs Obama becomes the determiner of who gets to build a website? Must be nice to take care of her girlfriend who owned perhaps the most incompetent designer on the planet and funnels her over a billion dollars. And we only thought she knew how to grow gardens and take hospital payola.
Now the American people have had a chance to take a peek inside the bill and they have unanimously said no. If they can’t even make a simple website to sign people up like Amazon does hundreds of thousands of times a day, can anyone imagine what the claim processing website will look like? That one will be hundreds of times more complicated and needing far more data than this one which points to a complete disaster. There will be infinite numbers of crashes and shutdowns while people wait for weeks or months to submit their claims. The backups will become deeper and more severe as the frustration builds throughout the nation over their Frankenstein.
This rollout has proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the gummit cannot run healthcare or even insurance. There is no understanding of how it works or the personnel to design a program even if they wanted to know. This is simply a bill that the Marxists inside the Party have designed to destroy the insurance industry with all types of expenses to force the companies out of the industry. The plans were written to make it impossible to make a profit and the mandates require percentages of payout to bankrupt these companies in short order. They are required to payout ninety percent of what they take in whether those claims are there or not. This stops the companies from having an emergency fund on hand in case there is a national disaster where excessive claims would come in bankrupting the insurers. These types of restrictive dictates are written throughout the bill which underlines the fact this plan was written as a payback to the insurance industry which they have hated for decades. This law is about punishing not helping.
So far we have seen what happens when a Marxist program meets a free market society. Businesses lay off half of your low skilled workers to keep yourself from being under the dictates. When the premiums of your plan go up dramatically you drop your coverage explaining to your people that their votes has results and this is one of them. The insurance companies raise the rates of their policies to reflect the need to cover the uninsurable risk pool they are dictated to cover. Doctors no longer take insurance and require cash or assurances to perform surgeries or leave the business. Finally, nobody signs up for obamacare unless they are uninsurable or cannot afford it. So you now have a disaster of a healthcare program.
Obama and congress need to either pull the plug on obamacare for a minimum of a year and or Obozo steps down. It is obvious the plan does not work in an open society. To make these monstrosities work you need a compliant society or a heavy handed dictatorship. Once the people no longer fear this gummit then they will find ways to avoid Obamacare. It is a poorly written law with no concept of how the insurance industry works. It was written by pure statists who believe they know better than you how to take care of you and what is fair by their definition.
If the president had the slightest amount of character he would resign in shame from this roll-out. He is not the type who inspires people to follow and simply passed this Frankenstein to punish the insurance industry, hospitals and those he believed he had a grievance against. Even in his apology he said he was only looking out for the impoverished who do not get a fair chance in America. That statement underlined what he saw the purpose of this monstrosity is and why he should resign. If your presidency is about punishing certain groups to help others then you are not president of all the people. Time to do something for all the people and either resign for your fraudulent promises or delay obamacare and let America vote on it. Ideally he would do both.
Pray America is waking up
Amen.
I'm praying.
Thank you very much for this week's excellent essay, which I'm saving because you've not only accurately chronicled obamacare from it's ugly start through today, but you've written it with both humor and brilliance.
“Slightest amount of character”????
PuhLeeze...
In an honest world, everyone involved in crafting and implementing this would be in prison. It is fraud, conspiracy, felonies committed across state lines, and in short, the most massive RICO violation in United States history.
Absolutely true! Our country has fallen to new lows.
Gimme a break! Ain’t gonna happen.
Obama needs to ‘pull a Nixon” and resign. Then Biden can pardon him like Ford did for Nixon. Then he selects Hillary as his VP—and dies (or resigns for reasons of health)—Hillary should abolish Obamacare! Try to set up a truly bi-partisan Healthcare fix. Work with Ted Cruz and Others. Invite sarah Palin to the White House for Tea and talk. Name President Bill Clinton as a special ambasador to the Middle east to fix the mess Obama has placed upon us. Then a special prosicutor to look into Eric Holder and the scandals—fire Holder too! Hillary could put in Kerry as her VP (and use him only to go to burials—and special events). Bill Clinto for Sec. of State. In the race between her and Gov. Christie—the new minted Hillary would win in a landslide-—So much for fantasy.
Both, please.
Here is an interesting article posted by a FReeper who is a web developer.
A guy can dream.
Character? This president is a character out of a nightmare, but other than that, he has no character.
