I have no idea what these guys are smoking back there...
The GOPe seemed to want Obamacare to run it’s course, fail, and then be cast aside.
Now the idiots are doing everything they can to ease the pain, make Obamacare less destructive, and more workable.
What the hell?
It’s as if they’ve turned into Obama’s Cheer-leading squad.
“Oh, it’s so bad. It’s hurting people. We can’t have that. Let’s bail Obama out. Pleeeeeeeese!”
Idiots!
REPEAL THE WHOLE ENCHILADA! Instead of this nickel-and-dime crap.
Sooo stupid. You pass a law making them EXEMPT from Obamacare regs-—that’s how you save them money and save us money without a bailout.
No, no subsidy.
Just stop messing with them. Business needs legal clarity and legal certainty. Economic uncertainty is normal life for a business but legal uncertainty is death. Legal uncertainty creates an oligarchy, and a two-tiered society: those who have an “in” with the powers-that-be, and those who don’t.
Rubio wants to repeal the part of Obamacare that rewards insurance companies for dropping their customers and forcing them to buy exchange policies, and this is a bad thing? This another poison pill.
The next thing we will hear is....We've decided to simply add another deduction to your payroll to pay for this in an equitable manner...and you can do whatever you want with your insurance.
there was a thread the other day and nobody could figure out why the insurers were working with obumbler. Now we know.
Rubio presses to repeal Obamacare provision allowing insurance industry 'bailout'
Obamacare includes a provision that allows the federal government to funnel taxpayer dollars to insurers that face the prospect of losing too much money under the new health care law, and conservative critics want to repeal it.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said the provision could amount to a bailout of the insurance industry, which stands to lose if the troubled Obamacare exchanges fail to enroll enough people to make the system financially viable. Obamacare enrollment has already been stymied by glitches at the healthcare.gov sign-up site and it could be dampened again under an administrative fix President Obama proposed this week to resolve problems with millions of cancelled policies.
Now they are going to be fighting over who gets credit for bailing out the insurance companies after this debacle.
My cynicism compels me to wonder how many Health Insurance conglomerates are actually owned and run by organized crime syndicates (the mob). I would bet a kick back in all of this obozocare billions goes for the crooks in DC who are trying to keep it afloat. Plugs said it himself; this is a big effing deal. And if any establishment A hole in DC was out to screw the American people, Plugs would be the first in a very long line.
Republicans have to stop dancing around the fringes of the ObamaCare failure with these proposals of fix, modify or delay. The only message is defund and repeal, defund and repeal.
To prevent duplication, please do not alter the published headline, thx.
Just end the whole darned thing already!
Republicans have provisional testosterone, if you ask me...
