“Why can’t I keep my insurance?” Because you’re stupid, sweetie.
Okay. This all goes to my screaming rants that people are responsible for their government. I’m getting really sick of people acting all indignant and acting like they’re being ambushed by this whole ObamaCare thing.
“Er my gawsh, y’all! My insurance bill just quadrupled. I’m serious you guys!”
Well, no kidding. What in the blue firey blazes did you expect? Let’s see. Insurance is risk pooling. A bunch of people get together and pay a small amount of money into a pool, and then when one of the people has an adverse event happen to them, the frequency of which can be broadly statistically predicted, then the pool pays out to the unlucky person who had the adverse event happen to them.
Now let’s see. From DAY FLIPPING ONE the Obama regime has been saying that mean old insurance companies will not be able to turn away customers with pre-existing conditions – in other words, insurance companies will have to let people JOIN THE RISK POOL … AFTER THE RISK EVENT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED.
Um, yeah. That is the total, complete destruction of the entire insurance paradigm. This isn’t my opinion. This is a mathematical fact … an extremely simple and elementary mathematical fact. If people who have already had the adverse risk event happen to them must be allowed into the risk pool, then it is no longer a risk pool. It is a wealth redistribution scam that victimizes the TOTAL, COMPLETE MORONS who enter and pay into the “pool” without already having had the risk event happen to them.
How can a nation of 330 million people, iniquitous gutter republic though it may be, not understand this? How can a nation of 330 million people have their tyrannical regime tell them in no uncertain terms that the entire insurance paradigm is going to be destroyed by said regime, and then when it happens everyone acts all shocked?
Oh, and then add onto that the fact that ObamaCare requires insurance to cover all kinds of bee-ess “preventative” and “elective” services. Well, if every single person in a risk pool is guaranteed to have a claim because the coverage is no longer for catastrophes, but also for purely non-emergent, elective pseudomedicine and outright quackery, then what do you expect? The “pool” has to collect more than it pays out. Period.
Finally, Karl Denninger broke the news today that most ObamaCare-compliant insurance has wicked in-network restrictions. As in if you receive any healthcare “out of network” you get ZERO coverage – and there is not one word of disclosure of any of this until AFTER you have bought the policy. And “out of network” has gone from generally meaning within a STATE to within a COUNTY, because, you know, competition is BAD or something.
So let’s recap. ObamaCare requires you to pay for slaughtering babies. We have known this for years. It utterly destroys the insurance paradigm by mathematical definition and necessity. We have known this since day one because it is a pure function of logic and math. Doctors and health professionals are retiring and quitting by the thousands. This has been happening for years. Your insurance premiums, which are now “mandatory” according to the state – yes, the state is now dictating to you that you MUST purchase a SERVICE COMMODITY as a condition of LEGALLY WAKING UP BREATHING in the iniquitous gutter republic and steaming satanic cesspit of baby-killing, sodomy and theft formerly known as the united states of america, have now skyrocketed, and you would have to be dumber than a box of hair to not see that coming.
Well, at what point does the inability to think through excruciatingly simple logical progressions and their inevitable consequences become moral culpability? At what point does the tolerance of the utterly irrational call down the thunder upon one’s own head? At what point does shrugging one’s shoulders at the blood-soaked ground beneath one’s own feet and muttering some sissy bee-ess about “not having any choice” become full-blown cooperation?
Right now. Right. Flipping. Now.
ObamaCare is yours now. YOU personally own it, because you refuse to do ANYTHING to stop it, and you have known from day one what it was and thus what it would do.
1. Media strike 2. Tax strike 3. General strike 4. Armed counter-revolution
Step 4 should have happened YEARS ago.
Please note that sitting on your butt and sending emails to all of your friends saying, “Isn’t this awful,” and, “Someone really should do something about this,” isn’t accomplishing anything, and your inaction is emboldening the enemy with each passing day.
Hoist the Battle Standard of Jesus Christ and FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!
It’s no longer insurance, but a wealth redistribution scheme.
Risk pool is actually minimal effect overall. Biggest effect comes from: Mandatory maternity coverage, and removal of gender differences in coverage.
Therefore, if you are a 42 year old man, your insurance is going up because some 42 year old woman might get pregnant.
But hey, most of what he says is very valid. Idiots.
They were so focussed on their self-righteous feelings of
“I’m a good person because I support healthcare for all”
that they didn’t listen, or even WANT to listen, to the people warning them of the consequences.
Becuse you voted for El Stupido DummycRAT.
Let’s ask these people why they voted for Obama?
Just read this at her site...spot on, as usual.
HAHA, Obama promised the compassionate solution that those sick folks would get free treatment of their pre-existing illnesses of ‘no fault of their own’ while our insurance premiums would go down at the same time and we get more benefits too, and only those rich guys like Romney would pay for it.(and smokers)
“He lied to us. He is making US pay” , LOL
The one consistent thing about the Obamadork administration is that it is composed of the most motley collection of ill-educated, scientifically and economically illiterate, and generally repulsive individuals extant on the planet.
Mass extinction of the whole collection would raise the planet’s IQ, improve the environment (as long as we ship the remains to the sun), and improve the life of all living beings.
Who in their right mind would hire any of these cretins (including the Cretin-in-Chief) to do anything?
Entertaining post!
Went for an MRI/X-rays yesterday and the techs were all complaining about the UN-aca act and how much it was going to cost them if they needed to get in it. Looked like they were all young enough to have been swayed by svengali obie but I didn’t ask them. The medical folks I’ve been in contact with during the last year are all pretty disgusted with the “hole” thing. We’ll see how the hospital folks feel if I need to get “cut” again. (If I’m coherent enough to remember post op. LOL!)
With every single ‘policy’ being a SINGLE policy instead of a GROUP policy thru an employer or union or whatever....you also lose the GROUP rates!!!
Why is this such a surprise?
Also- All businesses that offered health insurance and now won’t or cannot, will have an increase in their profits and therefore, an increase in their company taxes......
Double whammy!!!!
SO according to the information provided, there are 330 million people in the US, give or take.
Instead of this stupid insurance scam, the federal government could have just given each person in the US 1 million dollars to cover their medical expenses.
It would have been much cheaper than the 17 trillion they have spent on who knows what.
How many times does 330 million go into 1 billion?
Problem solved......./S

Unreal.
Why can’t I keep my insurance?...If you have to ask you voted for Obama!
This is about control over as many people as possible.
Source: Greek Myths & Greek Mythology: CassandraIn Greek mythology, Cassandra was one of the princesses of Troy, daughter of Priam and Hecuba. According to the Myth, Cassandra was astonishingly beautiful and blessed with the gift of foreseeing the future. Her curse was that no one believed her, a fact that weighed heavily on the destruction of Troy during the Trojan War.
There are several different versions explaining the gift and curse of Cassandra; the most popular one is that God Apollo fell in love with her and granted her with the gift of prophecy. When Cassandra denied the God and his advances, he placed a curse on her, so that no one would believe her words or her predictions. He gave her a gift that would bring frustration and despair to her.

The Cassandra Syndrome
Based on the myth of Cassandra there is a modern syndrome and metaphor recognized by experts; the Cassandra syndrome or complex, which is applied in cases of valid alarms which are disbelieved. The syndrome applies mostly in psychology and politics or science, and it was named by the French Philosopher Gaston Bachelard in 1949.
