Students at Bowie State University assailed the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on Thursday after administrators cancelled a low cost school-wide health care plan due to new regulations in the law.
Many students told Campus Reform that the now cancelled plans, which provided coverage for just $50 per semester, were the only insurance they could afford.
“I can’t afford anything right now,” one said. “I can’t even afford my loans.”
“We don’t have that money,” said another. “We can barely afford books.”
Several students said that they felt they had been let down.
“It’s stupid and it’s Obama’s fault,” one said. “You haven’t done anything, Obama, and I’m disappointed in you.”
“What it was hyped up to be, was that it was supposed to solve a lot of problems and help a lot of people, and its not really doing that,” said another.
Many students had no idea the plans had been canceled, which was announced only in an email to their school addresses.
In a statement to Campus Reform, Bowie State said it was confident that Obamacare would fill the void left by the canceled plans.
“Most students are now able to be covered under their parent’s health plans up to age 26 at no additional cost and new affordable coverage is becoming available through the Maryland State Insurance Exchange System,” it read.
Campus Reform conducted the interviews with student Eugene Craig III, who first wrote about canceled plans in an article in the school’s alternative newspaper, The Bulldog Collegian.

Elections have consequences as these skulls full of mush are discovering. Skin color should never be the prime determinant of your election choice. Bet you 99% voted for bammy.
They are discovering socialism is no respecter of color. The reds get everyone.
Probably the most valuable lessons they will learn in that college.
Obama does not identify himself with blacks. Obama considers himself a dark-skinned Arab.
This post fills me with joy. I hope something like this happens to most campuses where all those commie professors live.
"But I'll still vote for you."
If we get into enjoying Shaudenfreude we will have missed a huge opportunity.
Good. All you idiots voted for this bastard, so you got what you deserved. Don’t come whining to me cuz you won’t get any sympathy. I didn’t have slaves and don’t tell me that I benefited from slavery cuz if I did, you did too you filthy racist bastards.

"he hasn't stolen enough money from the producers and given it to leeches like myself."
I heard a similar discussion last night.
Obama's (and Democrat) campaign strategy was to promise everything to all these different "groups", knowing there was no way it could be delivered (except the trinkets and beads for primer).
Reality is hitting home among latinos, among working blacks, among college students, and even among some of the stupid white Democrats.
Up to now, the Democrat lies never visibly cost the misled Democrat voters anything on the magnitude of this Obamacare cluster-bungle. They are furious, and the damage is just going to get worse and worse for the Democrat voters and for the Democrat politicians.
If skin color wasn’t a priority to blacks, this wouldn’t even be news.
I still wonder if they are smart enough to NOT vote for a Democrat - I have my doubts ...
Bwaaahahahahahahahahaha! I’m busting a gut here! :D
I suspect many black voters will still vote according to their racist indoctrination. F'em.
Latinos are not so stupid and lazy. They know that their labor converts to money, and when they get robbed like this, and lied to like this, they can assess the value of the damage to their family. The SEIU, La Raza, MECHA, the Democrats, etc., blatantly lied to them to get their votes. This voting bloc will probably be the greatest loss for the Democrats, and they outnumber the black voters.
The other great voter loss to the Democrats will be college students and those recently graduated. Not only do they not have enough jobs, those who do have jobs will need two or three part-time jobs (without benefits) to pay for this Obama-scam.
The damage will be greater with each passing month; the job losses will be greater; the costs will be greater. This is the screwing of America that will just keep screwing America, until Democrats are removed from the House, Senate, and the presidency, and this hideous thing is repealed in its entirity.
They can't blame the TEA Party. We've fought against Obamacare from day one. We tried to warn them.
They can't blame Republicans. Republicans have fought and fought against Obamacare from day one.
The can't blame the insurance companies. They can't blame the employers.
They can only blame the Democrats, and the Democrat groups that lied to get their votes.
Hype & CHUMPchange
You helped put him in; deal with it!
(Not you, sunmars.)

They were screwed over by the white racist part of obama. His black part was NOT responsible.
He said he’s sorry. /s
