But does my Free 0bamaCare come with a Free Lunch?
I was told there would be a Free Lunch.

There is not one adult in the WH is there?Not in any position of power.
I'm sure the wait staff, janitorial crew, gardeners, secret service detail, and the ranks of the Marine guards are full of adults.

It’s like duh...If you’re paying for insurance....IT’S NOT FREE!!!!
To: Libloather
“”Services like these will go a long way in preventing chronic illness,” First Lady Michelle Obama said Wednesday.”
Just what I'd expect them to think and say, and just what I'd expect from someone who has no real understanding about health care. People in the US are not obese because they don't get free counseling. They don't continue to smoke because it's too expensive to talk to someone about it. Vaccines are already fairly easy to get for free if you can't afford them. Mammograms etc. are great, but have nothing to do with preventing ‘chronic disease’.

"We are shifting form health care coverage meaning coverage for the sick to meaning coverage to keep you well." You sick people, just go f*cking die.

There might be free mandated services under the new requirements, finding a doctor to provide them for “free” might be a pesky little problem.
A “free” colonoscopy? It takes two nurses, an anesthesiologist and licensed MD. The malpractice insurance alone is in the 10’s of thousands! Who pays for the machine. Isn't there a new tax on those medical devices as well? Spell check isn't working for me so pardon the spelling.

Any federal version of health care is unconstitutional since Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution does not specifically list regulating health care as an enumerated power! The people are not bound to comply with an unconstitutional act and as Americans are duty bound to uphold and defend the Constitution by openly defying these wholly unconstitutional acts!

What they mean by free is that the insurance premiums will rise for everyone to pay for them.

If we are putting in request I want a TOP OF THE LINE LONG ARM QUILTING machine. That way I can produce more Valor (for our wounded) and charity (children’s hospital) quilts, along with quilts for my kids and grand kids.

One question—who’s going to be providing all of these “free” services to the additional millions who will be demanding them? Doctor’s offices will be stacked with people out the doors (think of your local post office at rush hour); hospital waiting rooms will be standing room only; ditto MRI centers, mammogram screening centers, etc. These “free” services will be useless because people will have to wait months and months and months to get them. In the meantime, really sick people (mostly elderly) already diagnosed with diseases that require x-rays and other diagnostic and treatment procedures will be unable to get them because the supply of doctors and service centers won’t be able to keep up with the demand from everybody else who, regardless of their health, will be demanding their government-provided freebies.
This is such insane poppycock it would be laughable if it weren’t pathetic. Watch the best healthcare system in the world go down the drain.
