The newly eligible Medicaid enrollees may benefit, if they can avoid being killed by the third tier Medicaid doctors and the third tier Medicaid facilities.

Also, the “Silver Plan” pays subsidies for deductibles and co-pays, and it also caps total out-of-pocket costs each year at a much lower level.

The “Silver Plan” is essentially open to the lower income groups and will be paid for, in theory, by the unsubsidized higher income groups.

It all has to do with income (unless you’re among the privileged few, such as government officials and members of certain unions) and I think this was just another one of Obama’s ways of punishing people for succeeding. Obamacare is a backdoor to “income equality,” so that even people who do work and do achieve a reasonable standard of living now find this “excessive” income taken away from them and redistributed, while at the same time finding that even though they are paying more, their expenditure is buying them less, they are getting fewer benefits and their care will soon be no better than that of the average Medicaid clinic patient. Instant equality!

Of course, this does not touch the more equal animals at the top (the pigs in the WH, for example).

the new enrollees on Medicaid had health care before this debacle...they just had to show up a clinic or hospital....they can't be denied treatment if they need it...

however now, they'll be in the "system" and their free for all ER visits demanding drugs will be carefully recorded....

they think they have it better now, but now, they'll have to go to a very limited number of drs, perhaps across town, and be limited in the kinds of drugs they'll be prescribed, and the number of ct scans etc....
