Can someone explain: The government says you must buy health insurance, but it is telling insurers they can "limit enrollment" if they want.

How is that supposed to work?

It was never designed to work. It was designed to fail.

Hillarycare. Her lawn jockey Barry’s claim to fame is riding her Trojan horse, Hillarycare, to the finish line.

Obamacare (”Affordable Care Act”) was all about making the people pay more for their healthcare to keep the big hospital groups in business.

Mitt Romney (who did his own version of ‘healthcare’ reform as Gov. of Mass.) said healthcare needed to be reformed because of all the ‘freeloaders’ showing up at the hospitals.

Obamacare was just another bailout.

And I hope Donald Trump repeats what I just wrote.

It was designed to make the politicians rich. We are near the end of the Republic and at this point if you look at history politicians are only out to make a fast buck. Politics nowadays only attracts con artists.

Do I have to mention the poster child of using public office for personal gain, Mrs. Hillary Clinton.

I feel very sorry for folks as they were mostly too poor to buy health insurance, then forced to by law, and now must pay even more, or pay the “poor tax” and be penalized for not having it. . . what a nasty law.

And this genius claimed he read the bill and touted the savings, access to care...

Rep. Tim Walz, D-Minn., “They just didn’t understand how we could save money on this by adding more people to the system, how it was going to impact them in terms of their premiums and their access to care.”

That 8% rule is a great thing. More and more people will be able to go health insurance free without being required to pay the penalty.

obamacare is working exactly as its designers and en-actors envisioned it would. The only ones fooled were the sheep.
