And more is getting skimmed off the top as overhead (meaning fat paychecks to gummit “workers” and connected “industries”) — which wouldn’t be so bad if doctors and nurses got their due too but they don’t!
BIG FAT HONKING TRAIN WRECK and the Lord has to be ruefully laughing from heaven to behold this.
Not entirely true. I’ve seen more stories of people who can and are paying premiums now signing up to Obamacare to get subsidies so they don’t have to pay as much or pay anything anymore. Obama doesn’t juat want to redistribute wealth to the have-nots. He and the left want “income equality” for all. Which means as long as Obama thinks he can get enough money from the “rich,” a lot of people are going to get handouts whether they’re “poor” or not. This also helps buy votes for Democrats, and they need a bigger constituency than just the “poor.” So money will be spread around to higher and higher income groups.
