What a steaming pile of crap...
I'm allowed to have an opinion.
You are making a huge assumption that it can or will help all. You were told it did, but what basis of proof are you using that THIS part is true when nothing else has been?
Distribution of wealth is a good thing
It's a great thing when it's someone else's wealth and you are the recipient. If you are the target and it's your wealth, not so much. I feel satisfaction, pride and gratitude that I can when I help those less fortunate, it's rewarding. Taking from me to support things I may not support just doesn't have the same results.
Do you think that a 10,000k deductible is spreading the wealth? It seems like another way for poor people to go bankrupt to me...
Take this challenge...You state how it won't help and I will state how it can...
So you saying what we have in place now is working best for all ???
There is no collection agent that will force people to pay fines and relies on people doing the "right thing". If we could count on that, we wouldn't need insurance reform.
There is no system in existence that can work the best for all... That is a fantasy...
No he's not, you twit. The numbers don't lie. Obamacare is a feckin' FAIL. It took a shorter amount of time to win WW II than it took to create this fiasco. Included in those numbers are Medicaid enrollees, financed entirely by the Government. Included in those numbers are people who have only "placed" a plan in their shopping cart, not purchased. If Amazon counted "shopping carts items" as sales, they would fire the CEO. All the "good intentions" reality is 180 degrees from the "facts/results" reality. And guess what? It's gonna get worse, every day the numbers will slowly slide farther into the abyss, along with peoples faith in the ridiculous "hope and change" that so many sheeple bought into because they just wanted to feel good about themselves. We should round up and behead every single person who anything to do with what will ultimately be a 1 billion failed experiment at the hands of the American taxpayer ( not a dime from the welfare recipients ).
Like I said, whoever deleted it saved UncleBuck further humiliation.
Count me in that number also, and I'm not a Republican !!!! I'm not a white dude either.
We have a lot in common, green.
The good news for Obamcare and the Dem's is the fines rise quite quickly a few years from now so they can point to the improving signup numbers as more people are FORCED to pick a plan they do not want nor need...
At this time most Americans have inadequate healthcare ( or none at all). Most find out how little health care they have AFTER a crisis, in which case it maybe to late. People without public or private insurance coverage are costly to all of us. When someone gets ill and goes to ER they must treat you by law, regardless of your inability to pay. Most Americans agree with this law. The catch is that only those ER's who receive funds for Medicare patients or other federal funds are in the jurisdiction of this law. The more uninsured patients in the ER, the higher the bills to Medicare, which is paid from the general fund which is created out of our taxes.
I agree but we should go with what can help the most.
Your post is well thought out and points out a problem with our existing system. What you fail to do is provide a method in which Obamacare prevents this. I submit this food for thought. If an ER MUST treat everyone without compensation, and O'care has a 6k deductible, are you more or less inclined to abuse the ER to meet this deductible? Does just HAVING insurance prevent this? How?
Over 80% of our population was satisfied with their plan before O'care. Now we are being told it's because we are too stupid to realize how bad our plan was. Over half the country is unhappy with O'care. I think you guys failed in that option.
Could you show me proof of this...LINK please
