For you to celebrate the 4th anniversary of “The Unaffordable Scare Act
“ also known as Obamacare (March 23).

Affordable Boat Act

The U.S. government has just passed a new law called “The Affordable Boat
Act” declaring that every citizen MUST purchase a new boat by April 2014.
These “affordable” boats will cost an average of $54,000-$155,000 each.
This does not include taxes, trailers, towing fees, licensing and registration
fees, fuel, docking and storage fees, maintenance or repair costs.

This law has been passed, because until now, typically only wealthy and
financially responsible people have been able to purchase boats. This new
laws ensures that every American can now have an “affordable” boat of their own, because everyone is “entitled” to a new boat. If you purchase your boat before the end of the year, you will receive 4 “free” life jackets, not including monthly usage fees.

In order to make sure everyone purchases an affordable boat, the costs of
owning a boat will increase on average of 250-400% per year. This way,
wealthy people will pay more for something that other people don’t want or
can’t afford to maintain. But to be fair, people who can’t afford to maintain
their boat will be regularly fined and children (under the age of 26) can
use their parents’ boats to party on until they turn 27; then must purchase their own boat.

If you already have a boat, you can keep yours (just kidding, no you
can’t). If you don’t want or don’t need a boat, you are required to buy one
anyhow. If you refuse to buy one or can’t afford one, you will be regularly fined$800 until you purchase one or face imprisonment.

Failure to use the boat also will result in fines. People living in the
desert, ghettos, inner cities or areas with no access to lakes are not
exempt. Age, motion sickness, or lack of experience, knowledge or desire are
unacceptable excuses for not using your boat.

A government review board (that doesn’t know the difference between the
port, starboard or stern of a boat) will decide everything, including when,
where, how often and for what purposes you can use your boat, along with
how many people can ride in your boat and determine if one is too old or healthy enough to be able to use their boat. They will also decide if your boat has outlived its usefulness or if you must purchase specific accessories (like a $500 compass) or a newer and more expensive boat.

Those who can afford yachts will be required to do so...it’s only fair.
The government will also decide the name for each boat. Failure to comply with these rules will result in fines and possible imprisonment.

Government officials are exempt from this new law. If they want a boat,
they and their families can obtain boats free, at the expense of taxpayers. Unions, bankers and mega companies with large political affiliations ($$$) are also exempt.

If the government can force you to buy health care, they can force you to buy a boat....or ANYTHING else..

Yeah...Obamacare....it’s that stupid. Leave it up to some socialists to come up with such a monstrosity, what else would you expect? Over here in the US they prefer to be called liberals as it sounds better because it doesn’t quite have that derogatory connotation. Besides this unaffordable health care scheme has nothing to do with a compassionate government, but everything with controlling their constituents and keep the creators of this monstrosity in perpetual power.

You are exactly correct! I thought the next dictated product purchase would be an Obamapanel for turning the sun’s energy into electrical energy.

Which other products might we be ordered to buy? That will depend on which products Obamafriends are manufacturing.
