All I know is next tax season is going to be interesting. I’m supposed to buy this coverage too (in NJ here), but if I can’t afford it, of course I’m not going to buy it. And neither is anyone else, black, white, white-hispanic, or of undetermined ethnic origin.
And getting rid of the employer mandate will do nothing to help this along politically. Wait until all those VOTERS who have to pay a TAX PENALTY in APRIL because they decided they couldn’t afford the coverage go to the POLLS next NOVEMBER.
I could be wrong, it’s certainly happened many many times. But I’m expecting a debacle of unprecedented proportion.
The American people are so uninformed that they will back Obama programs no matter what it costs them. They still think “Obamacare” means free health care for “the poor”. That’s all they know and all they need to know in their own minds.
