He’s still defending his post the last time I checked. He’s being called everything but a Caucasian male.

Over on the DUmp, ReverendDeuce, "a 30-something male", is not a happy camper.

His premium is up 47%, to $236.84. In return for paying more, his deductible is up 67% ($1500 to $2500), and his out of pocket limit is up 323% ($1500 to $6350, now that his coinsurance rate has gone from 0% to 50%). He'd best not get sick.

The Krauts have a word for it: Schadenfreude!

He’s just acting like every other Liberal. He doesn’t want to pay his fair share, but is fine with others to pick up the tab

Thanks so much for the link to the DUmmies. Some hilarious posts although several are pretty smart cookies while explaining this insane law to the real and true DUmmies. Oh, the humanity!

He voted for this. He made his bed, so now lie in it and STFU. No sympathy here whatsoever. Just wait till he finds out that the medical care is deteriorating too. In socialist societies doctors don’t have the same motivation as they do here. Awwww. Poor liberal. Didn’t know what exactly he was voting for. But it sounded all so good, you know, Hope and Change!

Wow, the DUmpster comments are just unbelievable .... the posters keep telling ReverendDeuce to go to the exchange and shop ... they don’t believe the high rates, they don’t believe that he can’t pick/choose what is in his insurance, they don’t believe pretty much anything he’s saying and are putting it all on the insurance company and the ‘repubs’ who messed things up. They are going to be screaming bloody murder when they have to go ‘shopping’ on the exchange for themselves. They’ve bought Obama’s baloney hook, line, sinker and swallowed it all whole.

The ignorance of the posters on the Kos and DU threads is astounding. If ACA impacts you negatively: you must be lying; your insurance company is greedy and incorrectly blaming increases on the ACA; you haven't checked the miraculous exchanges; you are obviously wealthy and can easily afford huge increases that allow others to receive free coverage; the coverage Obama said you could keep but can't was inferior and you are being done a favor being forced to a more expensive plan.

Not one will call Obama on his repeated promise (LIE) that if you like your plan and doctor you can keep them. The oh-so-caring liberals are unfazed by the fact that your premiums have risen substantially and your OOP and deductibles are so high they make your insurance useless. They do not care if your budget cannot absorb the additional expense.

Obama is the smartest president ever...
Obama wants what is best for everyone, especially the needy...
Obama said our rates would go down and we’d have all sorts of choices...
Obama said this system would be better than letting insurance companies screw us...

So, ReverendDeuce must be wrong.

And since Obama would NEVER lie ..... those Lefty/Lib/Progs with Swiss cheese holes for brains are just bound and determined to explain it all away: RD didn’t shop on the magical, marvelous exchange that turns a ‘premium’ into ‘free’ or it’s the wicked insurance companies still ripping people off or the rotten Repubs messing Obamacare up or RD is (gasp!) a troll.

:-)

Yes, when you start with the assumption that elected “progressives” are the smartest and most righteous humans on the planet,

reality just doesn’t make sense.
