Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord

He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored....

Someday it will really suck to be Obama

[Hoodat]

Correctamundo! And the stupid short-sighted insurance companies fell for it.

That may have been their plan but they couldn't keep it all secret long enough. We do have a Republican majority in the House and if they know what's good for them they will STOP any changes the Democrats demand ~ including single-payer.

Remember, one of the most replaceable things in America is a member of the House. They come up for election every 2 years ~

Since Median Household income is $49K, the IRS assumes that family will spend 40% of its pre-tax income on Healthcare.

Supposedly, those 125% new home loans are available still. So a family could purchase a new home and use that extra 25% to pay for their Obamacare premiums.

What is this 4-tier nonsense? I thought Dems were against this "class" stuff.

Is Platinum for elected officials and the rich (which cover everything, including out-of-pocket expenses) and Bronze for us low-life peons (which will be nothing more than catastrophic coverage with a huge deductible and never really cover much of anything)?

What if you make less than $20K a year, and thus, cannot even afford to pay for Zerocare at all (if you must eat and have a roof over your head and gas for your car to get to work)? Can a doctor legally accept cash for service anymore, or must everyone have some kind of coverage, even if it's "obamacare"?

What will the cost per family be once you factor in all of those illegal aliens that will soon be granted amnesty?

[muawiyah]

The 'fines' haven't been run through Congress yet. That will need to be done again and again since they are taxes and the Executive is not authorized to change taxes unilaterally.

[henkster]

Thank you Chief Justice Roberts, you no good two faced spineless slimy SOB!!!!!!!!!!!

[Drill Thrawl]

The unintended consequences will create further disasters and policy crises.

FIFY

[Williams]

“Bronze Plan” Who elected him?

[JDoutrider]

Therefore, under paragraph (a) of this section, the shared responsibility payment imposed on H and J for 2016 is $2,400 (the lesser of $2,400 or $20,000).

That sounds like something straight out of the Soviet Union.

Many states will put you into Medicaid at a little lower annual income than that (depending on family size). But in many areas you will not be able to find a primary provider who is accepting new Medicaid patients, and the wait for specialists could be very long.

IRS: The Cheapest Obamacare (STEALTH TAX) Plan Will Be $20,000 Per Family Of Five - Obama And Democrats Are In Your Wallet!

By 2025 third world health care, will feel like home for the majority of Americans. We’ll be like Africa, China, India, Mexico and all other utopias citizens of the world immigrated from. No more “racist, greedy America.”

Globalism promises a rush to the bottom, so the serfs can compete for a piece of the global pie...or a cup of rice and a 300 sq foot flat.

[nascarnation]

Well it does provide 15,000 additional “good” jobs, LOL.

[crusty old prospector]

Let me guess - we all get the Bronze medal and the assorted deadbeats that make up the 47% will get Platinum service, all in the name of social justice.

[Artcore]

Don’t worry guys; Boner and McConnell are all over this!

Even now McConnell is drafting a Strongly Worded Letter to the President. I feel better already!

[Envisioning]

Wow! The revolution might start much sooner than I thought.
