Breitbart ^ | December 30, 2013 | Frances Martel

With Obamacare coverage beginning in earnest on Wednesday, the Wall Street Journal reports that thousands of people for which Obamacare plans will block some health care access are rushing to get medical tests and procedures done before their pre-ACA coverage is eliminated. Those who were receiving medical care before being forced to sign up to a new plan on HealthCare.gov will, in many cases, be locked out of hospitals and prevented from seeing doctors who they had typically used.

Obama, Pelosi, and Reid decided that we all must pay for free birth control, abortion, and “gender reassignment” coverage, whether we want them or not. So, to control costs, they cut out real medical care. Socialism hasn’t changed in more than a century.

With so many folks losing coverage, things will be a bit slower at the doctor this year.

It may be a bit worse this year because of obamacare. However, we were always slammed at the end of the year because of the deductibles having finally been met.

I don’t believe Obama, Pelosi and Reid decided anything. They didn’t read the damned thing. They still don’t know what’s in it.

What I would like to know are the names of those who DID write it.

Does anyone know how many net souls are insured compared to before? It’s probably fewer.

These people are sheep. Why don’t they rush to Washington and demand that this POS law get repealed.
