"I'd literally need to be dying before I would start paying this ridiculous deductible for routine care."
Under ObamaCare, those who work for a living incur massive premium and deductible increases to subsidize those that cannot or will not provide their own insurance. In the universe of ObamaCare, unless you are among the privileged dependency class that enjoys free health care, gone are the days when cautionary calls can be made to the doctor because a child has a stomachache or bad cough, because such calls will cost you five hundred bucks or so.
As with so many utopian policies of the progressive Left, ObamaCare is rife with unintended consequences that inflict pernicious pain and damage on society............"
Well, in a country of 7 billion, that’s not really that many, is it? Oh, wait...
The ultimate pain will be summer and fall of 2014....when folks walk in and need treatment.....to find that their deductible is now $5,000 instead of the $1,500 usual. And their Christmas allowance for Xmas of 2014 will be half of what it is currently.
The President won’t be able to explain the economics of this plus-up deal and the election of November 2014 will be a harsh reality for the Democrats.
Imagine this President waking up in January of 2015, and having 60 Republican Senators and a majority of Republican Representatives...and trying to invent some new chaos on his own.
They're getting their marching orders as we "speak."
Obama [stumping for McAullife]: "While Congress can "get away with" gridlock, Obama said, a governor can not.
"The governor, that's a practical job," Obama said, adding, "They can not afford to be ideologues.".....
McAullife [stumping in VA gubernatorial race]: "Can you even imagine if Ted Cruz, Ken Cuccinelli and the Tea Party ran Virginia government?"............."If mainstream Virginians from both parties dont turn out to vote, youre letting the Tea Party decide Virginias future."
Rep. Jim Moran, D-Va [stumping for McAullife]: "We need more Ted Cruzes like we need a hole in the head,"..
All part of the plan.
Surely no one among FreepeRs thinks for a moment that 0bama actually wanted the system to work the way he said it would work. That he actually wanted to provide good healthcare to us peasants.
“Some degree of truth twisting”. Uh, does that mean he “lied”?
Obama told us that you can “Have it your way,” but what he did was give us a Whopper.
“Truth twisting” is a step-up from yesterday’s oft used “he misspoke” — a preferred journalistic construct being employed so as not to come right out and say he LIED!

The White House Press Corps should serenade Obama with “You cheated, You lied. You said that you loved me”.
Remember how the Clinton Media LOVED that Bill Clinton could “get away” with all that he did?
129 million? I doubt in their wildest dreams they though it would be so successful in further bringing America down to the level where they can rule it.
"We(our rulers) let the 'people' have the 'freedom' to 'choose' their health care plan under the ACA and almost none of them signed up. This goes to show that people will not do the 'right' thing on their own and in this case single payer is now the only option".
A little bird just told me that the Center for Health Policy & Inequalities Research at Duke University ain’t gonna receive no more government grants or contracts for the next three years.
For individuals, it';s going to be important to get good books about nutrition, symptoms and home cures, healthy lifestyle and first aid. Follow them and don't get sick. If one gets sick, it might be necessary to heal thyself.
Besides the immediate problems, research and innovation in medicine will disappear. With government mandates in place standardizing how every situation will be handled, there will be no profit motive for inventing new stuff.
We're all part of a collective now, not individuals. I'm buying those books...while they're still available.
Crackers lose their insurance. So what."
Bump!
