One of the things we predicted here on your website back in 2009 Jim was that ObamaCare would destroy healthcare, increase government control, soar costs, ration care, decimate private practices, and never work.
Where I work, there was a lunchtime debate about getting rid of ObamaCare. The liberals around us all had the same argument: "Sooo, what are they gonna do?! Take away health insurance for millions now that they have it?"
This seems to be the mindset: once we get the citizen hooked and addicted, we can enslave them forever.
Well, gee. I wonder how my parents raised a family of 9 children with no health insurance? And their parents before them? And no foodstamps or Obama phones.
That is exactly what Pelosi and company were expecting. The idiots are evil but stupid. They did not see the epic backlash against FrankensteinCare. Their M.O. is to give "fee" stuff and dare the Repubs to take it away.
Moreover, they were expecting that every election after the bill was passed to carry the narrative "Dems want to 'give' you more healthcare and Repubs want to take it away".
