This is your notice from Obamacar.....you have to buy a new car with a higher car payment because the car you have now does not comply with the rules under Obamacar. You will be fined....taxed....whatever if you fail to do this. I am from the gubmint and I am here to help you.
Except... if you are “poor”, then we will GIVE you a new car that meets the new rules under 0bamacar. Because we can’t have poor people being disadvantaged and feeling left out. We’ll just raise the taxes/prices/fines that the working people pay, so it will work out great.
Actually, this brings up a point from a discussion I was having the other day... Leftists seem to have serious cognitive disassociation. They seem to understand that if you increase the cost of a behavior, say by taxing it, there will be less of that behavior. But they seem to believe that increasing costs on things of which they approve will have no effect. For instance, they don't seem to understand that by increasing the cost of health insurance and then requiring people to have it, or the cost of energy, the people will have LESS disposable income to inject into the economy by buying things, like cars. Or saving to buy a home. Or saving for retirement. In other words, to make the public as dependent as possible on "Uncle Sugar."
They simply ignore reality, but the scary thing is that the majority of the voting public believe their lies, and if they get amnesty for illegal aliens, they'll have a permanent majority in congress, and the Great American Experiment will have ended in failure. Benjamin Franklin is reported to have said that the Founding Fathers had delivered to us a republic, if we could keep it... Thanks to the republic devolution into a "democracy," and the uninformed masses who vote for "bread and circuses," we've lost it.
