Affordable Care Act

[Tapate50]

Hm. Interesting take there 57.

By the way, local agent said that today after he put in someone's personal info on exchange, it came up asking if he had in fact taken out a 2nd mortgage back in 1995. So................. So much for that not using personal information. So that's medical and personal finance in the equation so far.

[yeezus]

There should also be a limit to the amount of kids the government will help you support. 1 kid I can understand but if you can't support them don't have them. We are subsidizing stupidity. Stupid people need to die off so their genes don't infect the rest of the world.

The scary thing is, the stupid people are the ones who reproduce more. The smart people wait until they can afford it (excluding accidents, which smart people have less of) and are reasonable. The dumb people have kid after kid while working at target.

The whole premise to idiocracy. There is no personal accountability anymore. Poor people can continue to make awful decisions because they know then rest of us are forced to support them. Dems don't care because the more of these kinds of people that are around the more likely they stay in power. We are screwed.

Just in this morning... Our area will see rate hikes on 11\1 and 12\1 and 1\1\2014 to get to ACA approved rates. Enjoy America! Remember, you gotta pay this or you get fined!

Ahem.

[weso1]

Ahem.

Not fined... taxed. How could anyone ever think it's a fine?

Lol at the GOP. Surrender while getting nothing really in return. But Paul Ryan will fix the budget in 50 years! That's going to be the "grand bargain". Hilarious.

The GOP has no one with a backbone in a position of power. Speaker John whiteflag Boehner is nothing more than Obama's bitch.

[50PoundHead]

CK, Boehner won the first few rounds of his fights with Obama, including the fiscal cliff negotiations. I think the Republicans just picked the wrong fight here. If they concentrate solely on long-term budget reform instead of the ACA, they probably do a whole lot better.

[CK86]

They won't fix anything though. These budget reforms will get us to a surplus in 50 years, plenty of time for those idiots to screw it up. They didn't even get a one year delay on the individual mandate DESPITE having plenty of leverage with a craptastic website, exemptions for the President and Congress friends and having the shutdown with the debt ceiling coming up in a week. It's a massive surrender.

[Tapate50]

57 got pretty quiet. Apparently when he isn't quoting government propaganda pre rollout, he doesn't have much to say.

Here -- what was the final vote tally anyway? 40 -41? Throw in a Presidential election and a Supreme Court decision and voila -- we are getting somewhere.
Here's to hoping we get a real Congress and get to finish the job of universal health care for all
Even poor people

What about the tripling of rates? What about people getting pushed to the limits of their budgets as we try and pull ourselves up from a crippling recession? Poor people get health care anytime they need it. Walk through the door of your local hospital without coverage and see.

This has been a disaster to date. The hard thing will be admitting it fitty. Local carrier jacking up rates every month from here on out til the ACA effective date to protect themselves from it. Tell me how thats a good thing, because its a non-negotiable expense for them right now.

You should really get out more or wash your jersey. Or something

[sturg33]

57 continues to get owned. I'm surprised you support this bill 57. It absolutely crushes poor people and middle class.

[Tapate50]

Quality retort.

You don't have to have a jersey to deal out hard facts. There really isn't anything for you to say or post other than " Yeah, its pretty F'd, and so is most of the American public for the foreseeable future. Sorry I voted for this twice guys, my bad. But but but huff post says it its the republicans fault...oh and you guys should get out more"

The blind homer in you wouldn't allow that though. I guess it was too much to ask to directly respond to some of the things coming out on ACA that I posted, but I guess Huff post hasn't written it yet.

Gotta support the team.

[sturg33]

Reading some of the stories online from San Francisco... People are pissed. Obama supported too.

Some of the numbers being reports are crazy high

[CK86]

When Ezra Klein says Obamacare has been a failure, you know it's been awful.
