I have a couple beers with an acquaintance of mine once or twice a week at a local bar. He’s a small business owner like me.
For months now, we’ve been telling patrons and the wait staff that Obamacare was a bad thing for them. Many of the staff are young, and in the beginning we could tell they weren’t listening, I’m sure most of them voted for Obama in ‘12.
As the rollout has now commenced, we sense a great deal of embarrassment and anger. And these are Obama voters. We’ve warned them with specifics as to what would happen, every step of the way, and our predictions have been borne out.
They all began to ask our advice as to what they could do. Most of them will just pay the fine this year and wait for the whole thing to blow up. And blow up it will.
Long term, your advice might also include something like, "if you see a Democrat's mouth moving, assume that he/she is lying to you."
