My view of all this is that we are going to see a exponentially increased number of general practitioners who will not be accepting any more Medicare or Medicaid patients. This probably will result in many cases where the doctors’ rolls are going to be limited to those patients with ‘real’ insurance.
Gee. Thanks Obama!

Are ObamaCare's Tax Credits Harmless? The Little Understood Dark Side Of The Subsidies
By accepting a tax credit, low-income or lower-middle class families face significant tax ramifications and potential financial risk. Congress has changed the rules twice on consumers for the credits, making the income cliffs steeper, and fully equipping the IRS to claw back overpaid subsidies (unlike the individual mandate penalty).
The flip side of the tax credits is almost unknown to the general public.
Free health care for the “professional voters” was always the intention of this legislation.
More wealth transfer from our community organizer in chief.
See tag line.
According to plan, totally destroy private health insurance to make way for single payer.
Medicare and Medicaid are inherently terrible ideas, proposed and signed in by a bunch of Commie Democrats and the well known Marxist LBJ. We need to shift the Overton Window towards complete privatization or the dismantling of these Marxist programs, rather than accept the government waste and ignorance of market forces which encompass these bills. Medicaid is basically Hussein Osama”s blueprint for his destruction of the American health care system (really, it could be said that LBJ was the person to plan out the government destruction of American freedoms, with Hussein simply following his orders).
Government baiting and switching
Which describes 0% of all the new people storming our border now.
At some point in time the lowest of low information tax paying Americans will think, So, I cant afford health insurance, but I have to pay for someone who doesn’t work to have health insurance. And on top of that, I pay a fine for not being able to afford it.
Of the eight million Obama and Pelosi brag about, 6 million were Medicaid, a significant number of the remainder never paid or were not eligible for the plans they purchased, and a significant number had health insurance before ObamaCare cancelled their existing plans. I can’t wait to hear the real number of previously uninsured who gained insurance because of ObamaCare. While the FedGov power grab is the obvious justification for this terrible law, regardless of how much harm is does, I’d guess the Dems will have trouble campaigning on, “7 million good plans cancelled because of ObamaCare, but we got insurance for 30,000 people who were previously uninsured!”
So who knew?? We all did!!
