I forget to add people to the list. I disappear for months at a time when I get fed up with politics. But I do try to make sure that the articles pinged are worthy of your time. Search the keyword "survivingsocialism" to see previous articles and pings.

Isn’t it great that a president can enforce, delay or just ignore laws?

A nation of laws?

A nation of socialist tyrant.

Yup. But we’ll have to take what we can get. It’s not like the gop wing of the uniparty is going to actually end deathcare.

I found out that if the cheapest obamacare plan (bronze) costs more than 8% of your gross income, you are exempt. I qualify.

It’s kinda weird. If you make more than a certain amount, and don’t get healthcare, you are fined. If you make below a certain amount, you get subsidized. But if you are in the middle, you can legally have no health care and not be fined.

So everyone isn’t covered with Obamacare. But if you want to be, it will cost you a lot more than before obamacare if you are one of the producers.

No wonder they call it the Afordable Care Act. No, wait...

How long will these exemptions last?

I mean you are, huzzah, allowed to buy catastrophic care by the grace of his wonder Obama and then just as you finally need it.... it gets canceled?

Wait, wait, wait!

For months, we have been told by administration network operatives and even by president TelePrompTer that these catastrophic plans were inferior, they were crap, they were trash. Now, the administration is putting out the word that the best this president's " signature" accomplishment can offer an American is an inferior, trashy or crappy health plan?

Our system of laws is now totally spontaneous.
Whatever ValJ is thinking when she hits the office that morning is the law.

No, no, no, you have it all wrong. Those health plans are inferior only if a Republican says they’re a good idea. ;-)

Obama is essentially repealing the law in effect with all of the late changes. It can mean anything to anyone at anytime for any reason. How is the IRS going to assess any penalties under this law? And, if they do, how do they justify it? The law? Really? Which one?

Yes, they (GOP) are such useless bastards to the American people. Reagan is rolling over in his grave...along with Jefferson, Washington, Madison, Franklin and Adams.

The bronze plans are worthless;might as well toss the money out the window.

I HAD silver coverage free from my employer except obama/pelosi/scumbag dems wouldn’t allow the $25,000 annual cap ! So I either pay $200 monthly on top of my employer’s contribution )$200 that I don’t have to spare)or do without. And I make enough so the 9.5% rule for “affordable” btonze plan thru employer kocks in.That means no subsidy on the market.

I loathe Democrats.

And isn’t great that congress allows it.

It’s hilarious that idiots are finding out there’s no “care” about it. Very many thought they were going to get free healthcare. Many will sign up for Medicaid. But they could have done that all along.
