Where's My Free ObamaCare?
BC Magazine ^ | April 9, 2010 | Christine Lakatos

Posted on 04/25/2010 3:02:43 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Apparently, some Americans have lost their minds and are asking, “Where’s my free ObamaCare?” After I stopped myself from rolling on the ground laughing, I had to see this for myself.

Americans (along with the majority of Congress for that matter) are still trying to figure out the massive health care overhaul that President Obama signed into law a few weeks ago. Evidently, questions have flooded insurance companies, doctors' offices, human resources departments and business groups. eHealthinsurance.com (expert advice hotline) has received hundreds of thousands of calls from consumers and according to Carrie McLean, a consumer specialist for the company, “most of the help-seekers are asking questions about when the bill takes effect and what changes they're going to see, but many are under the impression that they're going to get coverage for free.” In the midst of this confusion, crops up a comical line of questioning, “Where do we get the free ObamaCare and how do I sign up for that?” Are they expecting free Obama cookies and Kool Aid with that?

This recent "government give-me disorder" coincides with last year's stimulus insanity, when people lined up to get of all things; “free Obama money." Where was this Obama cash coming from? "His [personal] stash, I don't know!"

(VIDEO AT LINK)

Did the Obama election foster in a new "caretaker" –– our government –– unleashing a smorgasbord of entitlements, relieving us from our "worries of putting gas in our car or paying our mortgage?” If so, forget about the gas and mortgage, where is my "free Obama" Porsche and beachfront mansion? And while we are at it, I want a "free Obama credit card" –– unlimited, like the one Congress is using right now!

It appears that America is morphing into Dane Cook's version of the Oprah Winfrey Show, where we all get a free "school and a HUMPBACK WHALE !" As perplexed citizens rise up to wait in line for more "free Obama stuff," we can anticipate that Americans will soon demand, “Where’s my free Obama Unicorn?”

I have it on good authority that there actually were people that showed up for their "free healthcare" in the weeks following the passage of ObamaCare!! Have you heard any stories about that?

If Obama has his way it will be here and you get what you pay for. And Obama could care less if it’s crap care because he sees himself as elite and the worker party members are expendable and if in a weakened or sick state should just die anyway.

Somebody needs to tell these freeloading jackasses that Barry has to tax the hell out of “the rich” for four years before they’re going get their freeloader “healthcare”.

"Somebody needs to tell these freeloading jackasses that Barry has to tax the hell out of “the rich” for four years before they’re going get their freeloader “healthcare”."

Funny thing about the rich, especially the self-made: They're usually pretty bright and if they see a huge tax increase coming down the pike will either change their behavior or location to avoid it. Kings, tyrants and dictators usually have a problem with that, of course.

I can betcha that most of these people have been on the public dole for years if not decades. Next it’ll be vacations for poor and the unemployed. Oh wait, Europe is already trying to pass that bill. We are all socialists now obamaits will be screaming for this one next.

“Where do we get the free ObamaCare and how do I sign up for that?”


Hmmm, you mean you didn’t get your check or healthcard yet? I got mine last week. Maybe you should check with Pelosi’s office as she is handling everything.

ps: I just checked with my neighbors and they all got their $1,000 checks and a note that their card for free care is on it’s way from Nancy Pelosi’s office.

I’d rather just get rid of the freeloader jackasses personally, they are a drain on society providing nothing in return. Cut them off, exile them, I don’t care what really.

Got no problem with helping people actually in need that are honestly trying to improve their situation, but have no sympathy at all for people that choose to be freeloaders.

I was just remembering this today, wondering whatever happened to those people? Weren't they lined up for mortgage help or something (I think I heard on Rush there was only money for a tiny proportion of the number that showed up and some tricksters were distributing forged/fake applications). Did the MSM ever get back to those people and ask how it was working out for them? Hope I didn't miss it . . .

When I was a veteran’s career counselor at a state employment office, I got switched to helping welfare recipients. I taught a class on looking for work, resumes, filling out applications and interviewing. Many were fifth to seventh generation welfare moms, and most were dressed better than I was! We (the taxpayers) had already paid for many of them to go through college, and now they couldn’t find a job. This in a city with approximately 3% unemployment and dozens of insurance company home offices within blocks of my office.

Entitlement mentality!! I still don’t understand how they live like that. I was on welfare for a short time, never bought anything expensive in the way of food. Weighed 105 lbs soaking wet and still ran out of food a few days before I’d get my stamps. Yet when I went to work for a grocery store, there was a couple that use to come through my line every now and again. They had food stamps and would have a cart full of food. Expensive stuff, shrimp, steak, things like that. I never could figure that one out. And like you said, the woman dressed better then me.

I can only imagine the frustration of a job like that. Talk about pushing wet spaghetti through a keyhole. You have my deepest sympathy.

Considering the quality of service we’re going to get under 0bamaCare free really isn’t cheap enough. You’re going to have to pay me to let an 0bama Doctor treat me.
