College Grad Says Obamacare ‘Has Raped My Future’ In Viral Letter
CBS News Washington D.C. ^ | October 9, 2013 | Benjamin Fearnow

Posted on 10/09/2013 2:27:26 PM PDT by grundle

A University of Michigan graduate penned an open letter that went viral online as she described how President Barack Obama’s signature health care law hurts the working poor, and has “raped” her future.

I have asthma, ulcers, and mild cerebral palsy. Obamacare takes my monthly rate from $75 a month for full coverage on my “Young Adult Plan,” to $319 a month. After $6,000 in deductibles, of course,” Dionne wrote in the Facebook post.

“Liberals claimed this law would help the poor. I am the poor, the working poor, and I can’t afford to support myself, let alone older generations and people not willing to work at all.”

This law has raped my future,” she writes. “It will keep me and kids my age from having a future at all. This is the real face of Obamacare and it isn’t pretty.”

She should contact Cruz and volunteer to stand by his side and tell her story and new outlook.

Don't forget the big prize coming next, Sweety. Obama wants amnesty to add millions and millions of deadbeat illegals to the rolls. Imagine your costs once you're paying for them too.

She apparently doesn’t understand that she’s just going to have to make some sacrifices and set priorities better to be able to pay for the insurance (said Kathleen Sebelius a couple weeks ago when someone asked her about people getting into situations for which they simply cannot afford the insurance premiums).

This stuff about blaming voters for choosing Obama over McCain and Romney is not really fair. If the ‘pubs choose a RINO again, they’ll lose again.

A 26 year old is not a kid. I’d like to know where, with her health issues, she was getting full health coverage for $75 a month.

I’d also like to know what she got a degree in that she can’t get a job.

There’s always BammyCare’s blue or red pills. Color-coded based on political party but the end result is the same. Move over sick American the illegal babies need that rationed, free care. Pay up you racists...

We warned you students. Actions and votes have consequences, but you wouldn’t believe a bunch of uncool Tea Party republicans. Oh Well.

But it is a hard lesson in reality. Obama supporters should have their own category of extra high health premiums as high risk patients.

She was able to graduate from Michigan State and now she can’t support herself? Sounds like a whiny “ I want everything for free” lib.

I wonder what her major was...

Just a matter of time before the new name for ObamaCare will be ‘UN-Affordable Care.

Unfortunately, I believe this cluster is what was intended as the necessary crisis that results in euro socialist medical care i.e. single payer.

Some states offer more than one type of Medicaid program, some are subsidized with a small co-pay and others are totally free. So could maybe have been a subsidized program. Would be interesting to know name of state that issued her health coverage.

According to Obama, 26 year olds can remain on their parent’s policies so they must still be kids.
