I have to approach this subject very gingerly.
I am not on a federal pension, as many on this site are. I do not currently have any need for federal healthcare, but that could change.
My company has been laying off Americans (just Americans) for about 10 years. Hundreds, maybe a thousand by now.
It is continuing, and at some point I may end up out. At that point I may need that coverage.
That is a very important thing, to me.
Granted it’s not important for everyone. If you’re already on a federal program you don’t see this as an issue.
I am not on a federal program. That said, I would ENTHUSIASTICALLY support a tea party candidate.
But I am not in favor of just repealing Obamacare.
I’m just saying. I think that would be a (big) electoral loser.
Could be I’m just biased from my own perspective, but there is my view.
Medicaire would not be affected by repealing Zerocare. I am near that age (61), but I know Medicaire has to be fixed - it is broke, just like social security. The problem accelerated when the dems stole from them for medicaid and ssi. If we have to give it up for our kids and grandkids, so be it. We should confiscate the wealth of all the congresscritters who perpetrated these scams to get votes.
I am opposed to the government takeover of heat Period.
I don’t have a federal pension and I don’t want to he forced on to a federal exchange.
Which IS what the ACA is designed to do!
What about me and what I want? I don’t get a say in how I live my life without input from the Feds?
You realize about 90 % of this phony 7 million are just the same Medicaid patients aka leeches being dumped on the Federal tax rolls and only 800,000 people who lost their better coverage and forced into high cost plans.
The Medical blood suckers don’t care
and the 800k are ticked off but just wait until 2016 when 160,000,000 people’s employer insurance explodes.
Kill it now before its too late.
There is no side to stoping it.
Thank God for the H-1B program, or else no one would have a job!
