Biden marks anniversary of Obamacare law that ‘changed America’
Breitbart ^ | 03-23-2023 | AFP

Posted on 03/23/2023 11:44:18 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

President Joe Biden on Thursday celebrated the 13th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act, an expansion of government-subsidized health insurance that he said had “changed America” but is under threat from his Republican opponents.

Foreshadowing a major theme of what is expected to be his bid for a second term in 2024, Biden said he was working to lower costs in the notoriously expensive US healthcare system while fending off Republican pressure to cut government funding.

“Even now, MAGA Republicans in Congress are intent on repealing the Affordable Care Act,” Biden told a White House celebration event, referring to the hard right wing of the Republicans led by former president and candidate for 2024 Donald Trump.

“It’s clear it would have a devastating impact on the American people.”

My favorite doctor, a black man, never fully recovered after our insurance cancelled him back when everybody thought the Obamacare mandates would be enforced.

"If you like your doctor you can keep him." --- a blatant lie from Obama.

"Under my plan electricity prices will necessarily skyrocket." -- perhaps the only time in Obama's life he told the truth

Obamacare destroyed Health Insurance and Health care in this country, and the only way to fix it, is not repealing, but MANDATING Every Public Employee in America enroll in it and pay for it themselves.

Biden has done well since his installment to advance Obama/Deep states agenda. Even if the repubs had the senate and the house, the Dems would still roll on to victory. Dems win most of the time because they follow no rules. They do what they want. Rinos are there to help make it happen.

“Changed America” = made everyone’s medical coverage unaffordable

My health care premium quadrupled in cost, my deductible doubled, my coinsurance tripled, and the quality of care suffered because we were forced to give up our doctor of 20 years for a government approved doctor and practice. Oh and a procedure that was $1000 now cost me double that out of pocket. BTW, we are lower middle class and didn't qualify for any subsidies.

BTW, the Obamacare doctor was terrible and made a mistake with my wife's vaccinations. We might have been able to sue the practice.

Oh and our “friend” who got their premiums completely 100% subsidized bragged about how she would go to those neighborhood “hospitals” that are a dime a dozen these days.

She'd brag that she didn't have to pay a penny. If I or my family used those hospitals, we'd have to pay thousands of dollars out of pocket.

Making all Americans wards of the state was definitely the goal.

nobody wants or even cares about that stupid law...its a shell of what it was intended to be....if it wasn’t for McCain, it would be gone completely. Just another subsidized welfare program now. They had such big dreams when they passed this....

Biden is so senile he doesn't even know his Obamacare is already gone! President Trump effectively repealed Obamacare when we eliminated the mandate. This damaging part of the law was forcing individuals to buy coverage they didn't need, and forced smalled employers to offer benefits to their employees.

Promises made, promises kept!

To: Tell It Right

Any doctor over 50 in my county retired. The younger doctors were swallowed up by the massive medical care cartels in the state. The once privately owned walk in clinics were all bought by a huge corporation. There is a whopping ONE provider for this huge county and the “primary care” facility they pay for is nearly 2 1/2 hours away.

Yes Biden, it sure changed America.

“change America”

So did Hurricane Katrina, and the PRE MAN MADE CLIMATE CHANGE 1927 Great Mississippi Flood:
More than 23,000 square miles of land was submerged, hundreds of thousands of people were displaced, and some 250 people died.

Today they would have said 1) climate change did it and 2) God was punishing the Trump voters down there.
