Ahhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!

Which low info voters thought that the GOVERNMENT could anything run well or cheaper?!?!

That site is a riot. Free market works. Soviet style socialism, NOT SO MUCH!!

First of all, the people can’t get into the website, still. It’s been three days. Just to see what their premiums would be! They can’t even get in!! If that doesn’t tell you how things are going to look when you are on your couch watching Jon Stewart and suddenly have excruciating chest pains and need to call the ObamaCare wagon, nothing else ever will!! THIS IS YUR FIRST CLUE, LIBS!

Then, they are moaning at how their employer’s plan is half the cost! ObamaCare is going to be prohibitively expensive. If they earned just a little less, they could get it for free! Hmmm. Why work so hard??????

Looks like we’re going to party like it’s 1979! In Soviet Russia!

If it is going to be automatically deducted it will have less impact than having to write a check. I hope employers itemize it in bold caps on the pay stub.

How many people do you think will write that check? The feds will have to confiscate it, I mean deduct it, if they want the money.

Life has consequences. If you can’t afford basic necessities, get another job, get married or find other family or friends to help you. Those people are able to have you do something for them in return for the help they give you. It’s not the taxpayer’s job to foot your bills while we get nothing in return.

Love your breakdown!

And remember that doctors, themselves, as well as the labs and even the hospitals, will all “deal.” They hate going to collection. All of them will deal.

So you take your broken leg example (read his post, anyone, if you missed it) of a total $10k bill for the broken leg. Lets break that into
For simplicity’s sake $6k for hospital, $3k for doc, $1k for lab.

You go to the hospital billing, find someone High up enough to make decisions, and say, I have $3k in cash right now. Will you take it? I can’t pay more than that, and if it goes to collections yu won’t get more than $1.5k if that. No billing hassles, just close out my account for this cash? They most likely will. Maybe you haggle a little. But it works. D the same with the doc, he doesn’t earn much (docs lose money a LOT), so I’d pay him for the brilliant setting of your leg, $2k. He then has far less paperwork for his expensive staff. Ok, then the lab, who might drop your MRI bill to $600. Your total spent on the broken leg would be — no obamaCare in sight — $5600. With obamaCare you spent $8000.

Free market, baby!! Win, win, baby! No middle men!

I would be willing to bet that there will be hundreds of scam front operations that will look like real websites that just want your personal info, bank account numbers, ss numbers, etc. and will empty your accounts to Nigeria before you get off the computer................

Remember, FReepies. The free market will never go away. It comes from human nature, and it is here forever. Sure, in Soviet Russia the market was colored black, but in any color, we will always be able to deal with our medical care professionals. But the system - the big system in DC - needs a lot of help. They figured out they could vote themselves money and control.

And Obama was so choomed out in the 1980s that he must have missed what happened to the USSR and is condemned to repeat it.

If our elected representatives had any balls, it would be less than three years.

The 2014 tax season is going to be awful. 2013 wasn’t fun with delayed forms, software glitches by the IRS, and estimating Obamacare “taxes” and “subsidies”.

I wonder if the Obamacare will be the roaring success as the ole Henry J and of course more recent lives up to the promise of Solyndra?

You are aware that Obamacare has already paid Acorn, SEIU, Planned Parenthood, and other Democrat fraud groups MILLIONS to administer this monstrosity? They're in it precisely to gain access to your personal information. Besides the gubmint draining your bank account, what's left will disappear when the Demonrats need political walking around money.

FREE!??!!!?! Health Care For Everyone.

Lower premiums and better care.

Now Pelosi and Obama said they never promised those things. Hope these dorks learn a thing or two about how they got tricked.
