When socialism fails (as it always does), the only answer a socialist has is More Socialism. So, can anyone say, “Single payer?” I knew you could.
its gotten to the point where the Great Ones Devotees have started rebelling...
This is a good time to smash police cars and rob news networks./sarc.
That’s why I laughed at the face of my tax attorney’s nitwit assistant whose also an obama tool that I should “re-consider” paying for next year as I took the one year exemption. Slaves are stupid people, and they’re called Dummycrats.

The article above indicates:
Covered California is $80 Billion bucks in the hole
At that rate alone it is unsustainable(never mind a train that goes nowhere fast)
Enrollment for this year fell 300,000 short of the goal set and that was a mark that was synthetic in the first place, as it recognized certain realities in re-enrollment.
Speaking of re-enrollment: Covered California retained only 65% of previous enrollees.
That’s called “churn” in business parlance and anything over 10% retention is considered an abysmal failure in the business world and usually a predictor of further failures in growth and realistic sustainability of going enterprise.
I don’t know how to quantify a 65% retention rate and its effects on future years but, it definitely portends a colossal disaster...
This article was written by a news organization that is generally supportive of Jerry Klown and Fauxbama, so I don’t know what to make of it either...
I want to laugh at this guy. But, he still has not figured out the end game.
“...healthcare he gets from his Obamacare policy is less than he had before passage of the law and his premium skyrocketed 71 percent. In his words...I really think we created a Monster”
Who do you think pays for the healthcare for unemployed, part-timers and illegals?
They don’t understand about Insurance death spiral, the law created it.
It is only going to get worse.
At the same time in California, electricity, water, and rents are shooting into the stratosphere, people couldn’t even afford the 2014 rates now.
Their earning potential is damped down because of illegal immigration.
Its like a 1 2 punch right to the throat of Californians.
What most people fail to understand is because they are either too ignorant, dumb or greedy, always hoping for freebees is, that Ocare has nothing to do with compassion but everything with more and more governmental control. What invariably and inevitably is the aim of outright socialism, which ultimately has and will continue to fail.
“Look at these people. Let’s give them free health care.”
“OK. Let’s give Doctors free cars.”
“That doesn’t seem fair.”
“Well, the Doctor has to get from his house to the hospital. If the patient isn’t going to pay the Doctor any money, then the Doctor needs a free car.”
The EXEMPT undocumented Democrats:
"Yes, we promised to repeal ObamaCARE, but WE like it
because WE, our families, our Staff, and their families are EXEMPT.
So instead we will continue to attack conservatives using the IRS."
Boehner and McConnell funded this POS law. Amnesty too. Loretta Lynch will continue race hustling at DOJ. And the Senate negated the Treaty Clause.
Elections have no consequences with RINOs in charge,
Spit.

This guy blames the problems on competition?
Is it ignorance or stupidity? So much for a "big supporter of Obamacare."
The ‘poor’ got their medical care free at expensive emergency rooms before Obamacare.
So what if it cost $4,000 to treat a common cold? The poor person was treated - didn’t pay squat - and hospitals wrote off the loses to the benefit of their bottom line. The only people being screwed were taxpayers. Democrats fixed that - now taxpayers are being screwed MORE, the poor aren’t getting care, and the system will bankrupt the country.
Why aren’t the poor happy? Before they paid nothing for something - now they pay something for nothing. And it’s forced.
P.J. O’Rourke ‘If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it’s free.’
Because it’s reducing their premiums, right?
