They'll be saying the same thing about gun control when the zombies come. BTT.
"AFF-TAX!"
[Remember, NOT ONE "Pub" voted for ObamaCare.]
I hope you dumb@$$ dims like your 0 bummer care bill and I wish every one of you would have to pay double premiums. You are so stupid, it has to hurt.
Take heart, KOmmie SlackerInc. You may not be able to afford Affordable Care, but you DO win the Mixed Metaphor of the Day Award! Congratulations! Put that in your pipe and wear it well!
Written in invisible ink...
My wife works as a primary school special ed teacher. Her job provides decent insurance for her with no premium. To add me and our kids to the policy, though, would cost $577 a month out of a paycheck that right now is only $2400 a month, take home, and does not stretch super far as it is. This is just plain unaffordable for us. Yet the news is, we are shit out of luck.
And what do you do while your wife teaches?? I guess you go to the basement and drink beers [Welcome to the UNAFFORDABLE Care Act.]
LOL
ObamaCare: Socialist medicine for all but the 1%

That is going to be a huge problem for the money side of the ACA. ACA is based on the premise of helping a finite number of people. The problem is funding. Funding for ACA is based upon taxing the rich, taxing everybody, penalties to employers and employees for not providing insurance/not buying insurance.
When employers start shedding employees the only portions of the revenue side that go up are penalties on employers ($2500/yr) and the penalties on the employees that don't get insurance. The tax revenue on the "rich" and everybody else doesn't get any bigger and the program falls out of balance.
Based upon the numbers this dummy mentioned and the original projections for ACA subsidies, his family would be better off if the school district his wife works for dumped them and paid them the difference between their current costs to insure her and the penalty. Their subsidized insurance under Obamacare would then be pegged against their income and they would end up paying about $450 a month. I am guessing a majority of that would come from the pay increase the school district could give the wife with a zero net difference in outlay. Tax targets of ACA and deficit spending would pay the rest.
What we are going to see are endless demands for fixes, new legislation, new loopholes, new opt-outs, new opt-ins, new rulings from the IRS and HHS.
It will not "collapse," as some here are speculating. It will simply become more and more hideous in an ever-spiraling mess; just like the tax code, but with your life and not just your money at stake.
Keep Your sense of humor, and by all means keep reading the DUmmie FUnnies, or you're going to go insane.
I wonder if they know that all congress and their families are exempt from BO care? Bet they have no idea.
ObamaCare was designed to fail on purpose so they can “fix” it will government healthcare.
duh

It's INSURANCE we are talking about.
Not exactly correct. EMERGENCY care is available to anyone who needs it.
And contrary to common misconception it isn't free. You can't be denied the care but you are still responsible to pay for it if you don't have insurance. The care provider will help you get aid but it certainly isn't guaranteed. Depending on your state, gender, and finances you may or may not get help with the bill.
