The problem is that many of the Obama voters are allowed to stay on their parents healthcare until they are 26.In other words they vote for Obama or some other Democrat POS for years before they take the hit.
Ever wonder why they passed that?
The Government/MSM is going to try to create an environment in which everyone (a) realizes that their health care costs have increased dramatically, and (b) believes that they are the exception.
They are going to pull out all the stops on this. The MSM is going push a propaganda model 24-7.
This will further weaken the credibility of the MSM with everyone except the LIV population.
The “new media” will rise in power as a result. Also as a result, the Government/MSM will increase their attacks on the “new media,” with shut-down being the goal.
Why can't they simply publish the rates the insurers are charging and then allow us to sign up directly with them? What are they hiding?
Great thread, libstripper...
Great thread.
Always remember, Obamacare is not about health care,
it’s all about getting YOU to join the collective.
You WILL be assimilated.
Being a Canadian, I will fare just fine.
I checked the Kaiser calculator. (i have been up all night) I wanted to run the numbers. Smokers will be hit with an “up to” 50% surcharge on the exchange premium. That extra money will NOT count toward the “up to” amount on the “subsidy tax credit”. They even ask if your kids smoke. Kids are described as 20 year olds. they don’t ask about Choom.
If you can’t afford your employers insurance, too bad, you are screwed. I ran the numbers on a family of 4, earning 30K and 40K per year. The plans say you can get a tax credit “up to”. The amount they have determined after taxes you NEED to spend is Up to 9.5% of after tax income. With the payments which need to be made during the tax year, then possible refunded, and the huge deductible out of pocket costs, this family living on 40K, is going to need to have an extra 10K lying around. What do they do? not eat? not pay their rent/house payment. So if you are eligible and can’t afford your employers health plan, too bad, so sad. How many workers losing hours are going to be able to pay for this?
If you don’t earn a min amount of money, you don’t qualify. You “may” qualify for Medicaid, but if your State doesn’t have that in the budget, you are screwed, too bad so sad. The man is a liar. The premise of this mess is promises that are lies. Why do 8% of the populations “rights” trump the 90% of the populations “Rights” to their healthcare plan, doctor choice, amount spent?
has it been reported anywhere that someone not of the welfare class has got a rate lower than they where paying prior?
I didn’t think so
The 20-somethings need to understand that premiums will rise under the ACA. There’s no driver within Barry’s socialist scheme to drive down cost. Well...other than rationing and death panels.
Interesting. I wonder if it has been shut down due to it informing people of how much more they will be paying and the gov’t doesn't want that info to get out.
