For a worker like that, losing health insurance at work doesnt actually look like a bad deal. Instead, its [sic] a pretty good deal: it gives part-time employees the chance to qualify for way more generous financial help than Walmart would ever offer.Because government just has to shake the money tree to pay for that. What a genius.

Sure. I get a $7 per month plan with a high deductible and an extremely limited network of doctors and hospitals who will see me. In other words, “healthcare” in name only.

Getting out of from under health insurance costs has been a dream for the business sector for a long time. They (our elected officials) just had to figure out a way to do it and still guarantee profits for the insurance industry.

It’s so convenient not to have money, job, prospects, savings or a future. Great job liberals. Let Uncle Sam’s nephew Barack Ebola charm you with a little soft shoe while you wait for that lifesaving operation that never happens!

Just got my Obamacare bad news today. We have to switch over end of the year. $300 more per month + much larger deductale. Thanks Odork.I went through this last year and it ended up being a blessing. My premium with Blue Cross was aprx. $750 per mo and was going up to $1,400. I joined Medi-Share, a Christian Healthcare Co-Op with a $10,000 deductible. The premium is $351 per mo. I then signed up with a Concierge Doctor (he takes no insurance, but provides his services for a flat fee) for $300 per mo.
I'm paying $651 per mo and I'm not in the govt system, nor am I paying for services I don't want.
Look up Healthcare Co-Ops and Concierge Doctors.

The author's claim that a part time Walmart employee will pay just $7 per month for ObamaCare is misleading.
The cheapest ObamaCare policies have the highest co-pays and deductibles (to be fair, most of them also have a cap on out-of-pocket expenses).
Consequently, Walmart employees will save $104 per month on insurance premiums, but they may have to spend thousands more on co-pays and deductibles.

Come to think of it, laying her off completely could qualify her for free Medicaid, and for unemployment or welfare payments, which are “far more generous” payments than Walmart would ever offer for not working.
Makes a lot of sense if the goal is to having every working person dependent on the government, but doesn’t do much to support a productive society.

Hurting people is what they want. We need to drive this point home over and over.

I'm already seeing ads through facebook groups looking for doctors willing to take new Medicaid patients. I'm tempted to respond with, "How's that ‘free’ healthcare workin’ out for Ya?"

Of course they are. To them, more people dependent on Government is a good thing & means more votes.

ObamaCare proceeds according to plan - the goal is to create such a catastrophe that a majority demands single payer.
