[HYPOCRACY]

Tell that to all the people denied treatment because they weren’t vaxxed, lady...

[GreyFriar]

As one said in medieval times: “Hoist on her own petard.”

Or to quote the Bible, she is reaping what she sowed.

[NorthMountain]

For over a decade, I’ve been helping politicians talk about health care and the Affordable Care Act.

You shat your bed ... now you get to wallow in it.

“Hoist with his own petard” is a phrase from a speech in William Shakespeare’s play Hamlet that has become proverbial. The phrase’s meaning is that a bomb-maker is blown (”hoisted”) off the ground by his own bomb (”petard”), and indicates an ironic reversal or poetic justice.[1]

To better cover more expensive persons the lower benefit cost persons have to pay much more.

[Bonemaker]

Gee, I don’t know what to tell you madame. How about...oh I don’t know...get a tumor yourself?

[Brian Griffin]

“I have yet to see a death panel”

People who can’t afford coverage just die quietly.

[Brian Griffin]

Would you like to buy a $500,000 house for $10,000 maximum out-of-pocket?

Would you like to pay $20/hour for a $200/hour plumber?

[Brian Griffin]

“In 2010, as a staffer working for House Democrats....I have yet to see a death panel.”

She needs to use her optical benefits.

[BobL]

First problem for her: Why did she marry a man, if she’s a Leftist?

[newzjunkey]

I’m glad someone is suffering the fruits of their labor. I feel bad for the husband. It used to be simple but it’s just not. You cannot depend on knowing the costs of anything before it happens now. It’s just crazy.

[Noumenon]

"But I didn't thi k it applied to meeeeeeeeeee!"

Bwahahahahahah

[clearcarbon]

" In the blink of an eye, I went from someone who thought they understood the minutiae to realizing all the Beltway smarts in the world couldn’t prepare me for this journey."

The wealthiest will continue to acquire the healthcare they need. The poor will be entitled if not encouraged to receive subsidized euthanasia.

We were warned!

[GreyFriar]

Yep, that is what I meant — poetic justice.

[Pajamajan]

bttt

[GrannyAnn]

The Soviets called people like her “useful idiots.”

[dfwgator]

The whole point was to break it, so people would demand single-payer.

[gitmo]

Yeah, I’m finding out Medicare is like that. They tell you that you are covered for things, then they won’t pay it.

[Albion Wilde]

now, as I fight the system from the bedside, one thing is clear – insurers still run the show. They continue to swiftly change their models to increase their bottom line, faster than government can react.

Silly central planners never take into account the power of organic, natural market dynamics. They spend all their efforts to tamp down and eliminate the free will of markets, whether for goods and services or for ideas, and are confounded when free choice springs to life again and again. It's why we have wars—the elites' only solution to their plan to communize the masses.

[Organic Panic]

Sometimes you just have to take the pill. Stupid prize won...
