It’s no longer insurance, but a wealth redistribution scheme.

Risk pool is actually minimal effect overall. Biggest effect comes from: Mandatory maternity coverage, and removal of gender differences in coverage.

Therefore, if you are a 42 year old man, your insurance is going up because some 42 year old woman might get pregnant.

But hey, most of what he says is very valid. Idiots.

They were so focussed on their self-righteous feelings of
“I’m a good person because I support healthcare for all”

that they didn’t listen, or even WANT to listen, to the people warning them of the consequences.

RE :”Now let’s see. From DAY FLIPPING ONE the Obama regime has been saying that mean old insurance companies will not be able to turn away customers with pre-existing conditions – in other words, insurance companies will have to let people JOIN THE RISK POOL … AFTER THE RISK EVENT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED.
Um, yeah. That is the total, complete destruction of the entire insurance paradigm. This isn’t my opinion. This is a mathematical fact … an extremely simple and elementary mathematical fact. If people who have already had the adverse risk event happen to them must be allowed into the risk pool, then it is no longer a risk pool. It is a wealth redistribution scam that victimizes the TOTAL, COMPLETE MORONS who enter and pay into the “pool” without already having had the risk event happen to them. “

HAHA, Obama promised the compassionate solution that those sick folks would get free treatment of their pre-existing illnesses of ‘no fault of their own’ while our insurance premiums would go down at the same time and we get more benefits too, and only those rich guys like Romney would pay for it.(and smokers)

“He lied to us. He is making US pay” , LOL

The one consistent thing about the Obamadork administration is that it is composed of the most motley collection of ill-educated, scientifically and economically illiterate, and generally repulsive individuals extant on the planet.

Mass extinction of the whole collection would raise the planet’s IQ, improve the environment (as long as we ship the remains to the sun), and improve the life of all living beings.

Who in their right mind would hire any of these cretins (including the Cretin-in-Chief) to do anything?

Went for an MRI/X-rays yesterday and the techs were all complaining about the UN-aca act and how much it was going to cost them if they needed to get in it. Looked like they were all young enough to have been swayed by svengali obie but I didn’t ask them. The medical folks I’ve been in contact with during the last year are all pretty disgusted with the “hole” thing. We’ll see how the hospital folks feel if I need to get “cut” again. (If I’m coherent enough to remember post op. LOL!)

With every single ‘policy’ being a SINGLE policy instead of a GROUP policy thru an employer or union or whatever....you also lose the GROUP rates!!!

Why is this such a surprise?

Also- All businesses that offered health insurance and now won’t or cannot, will have an increase in their profits and therefore, an increase in their company taxes......

Double whammy!!!!

SO according to the information provided, there are 330 million people in the US, give or take.
Instead of this stupid insurance scam, the federal government could have just given each person in the US 1 million dollars to cover their medical expenses.
It would have been much cheaper than the 17 trillion they have spent on who knows what.
How many times does 330 million go into 1 billion?
Problem solved......./S

You're missing the point--this isn't about health, or economics.

This is about control over as many people as possible.

Those of us who warned others about ObamaCare are victims of the "Cassandra Syndrome"
Source: Greek Myths & Greek Mythology: Cassandra

In Greek mythology, Cassandra was one of the princesses of Troy, daughter of Priam and Hecuba. According to the Myth, Cassandra was astonishingly beautiful and blessed with the gift of foreseeing the future. Her curse was that no one believed her, a fact that weighed heavily on the destruction of Troy during the Trojan War.

There are several different versions explaining the gift and curse of Cassandra; the most popular one is that God Apollo fell in love with her and granted her with the gift of prophecy. When Cassandra denied the God and his advances, he placed a curse on her, so that no one would believe her words or her predictions. He gave her a gift that would bring frustration and despair to her.

...

The Cassandra Syndrome

Based on the myth of Cassandra there is a modern syndrome and metaphor recognized by experts; the Cassandra syndrome or complex, which is applied in cases of valid alarms which are disbelieved. The syndrome applies mostly in psychology and politics or science, and it was named by the French Philosopher Gaston Bachelard in 1949.
