Will this be another Obamacare where they shove it down our throats?

My idea of a “public option” would be a good caning once a week for those involved in setting up Obamacare until such time as they get rid of it.

a government run health insurance program......

Sure, since the Feds have done such a great job with the Post Office and the VA, let give ‘em the Whole Enchilada to run.

Rather, there should be an option for the public, i.e. a free market.

I thought there already was such a thing for anyone below certain income levels signing up for Obamacare... they get free insurance, subsidized by someone.

when it comes right down to it and all other scoundrels aside who rammed this down the American’s throats, we can all thank Chief Justice John Roberts for pissing on his oath and our Constitution and taking it upon himself to personally change the ACA law from the bench. How much more?

Thank God we have a printed, fiat, unbacked currency, and a Federal Reserve to create all this debt at manipulated interest rates - or progressives/leftists would never be able to run their many big government, political, social-engineering schemes.

Let’s see...Paul Ryan has a speaking slot at the convention next week. This couldn’t have been timed better! He can wax eloquently (at least, as well as Ryan can wax) on this horrendous idea of Obama’s.

Oh, it’s all lip service on Ryan’s part - just sound and fury signifying nothing for the voters back home (he’s in trouble, BTW). Then he’ll return back to Washington and do nothing.

Just, WOW. Even the most cynical amongst us couldn’t have foreseen this—it’s almost like it was designed to fail.

...

Everybody. Private insurers won’t be able to compete with the government which can steal more and more money from the taxpayers.

Ok I am going to get slammed

I will not vote for Hillary. Probably vote for Trump.

Been a conservative all my life.

Here goes:

We are the only county in western civilization that does not have a government run health care system.

Every time if visit Canada (5 so far) I ask everyone who I am talking to, (bar, B&B, winery, anywhere) how do you, as a Canadian citizen like your health care system. Everyone, I repeat everyone, loves their healthcare system. They admit they pay for it in taxes, but they love it.

If anyone here responding is on Medicare, (not Medicaid) you have the best healthcare insurance of anyone in this country. It is government run.

Just my thoughts.

flame away

Ha, ha, ha. As we have been saying here for a long time, nobamacare is just a step towards government run health care.

The saving grace is that nobama won’t get this done during the remaining days of his monarchy.

Another way of expressing this is that nobamacare didn’t collapse as fast as he thought it would.

If by "public option" he means "complete and utter repeal", then I agree.

The public will be given the option they've wanted since before the Death Panels became law: to not have Obamacare destroying their economy, health insurance, and liberty.
