Amid the whining about Obamacare, women, men and children are signing up for what will be a transformation in health care and, to some extent, American society.
There are many complaints about the law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Unions say it threatens their health care plans. Republicans charge it will bankrupt the nation. Consumers worry about a doctor shortage. Advocates of a stronger federal health insurance plan accuse President Barack Obama of surrendering to the insurance companies.
**SNIP**
None of this is extraordinary. Americans covered by health insurance policies or Medicare expect it, as do those on Medicaid. But without such care, the poor and the low-paid workers who are classified as the working poor are deprived of the health and energy that gives them a fighting chance to move up the economic ladder.

With all its imperfections, its maddening loopholes and limitations, Obamacare is a step toward improving the health of the overlooked poor and transforming our society into something beginning to approach fairness.
Not very fair if Hussein pimps yet is exempt from a bill named after himself.
The list is long, of the items the United States should not be funding, but is.
Medicare
Medicaid
Social Security
Education
Welfare
Food Stamps
I’m not here to say that no public assistance should be forthcoming, but it should take place at the local, or at most the state level.
Private concerns should figure heavily in this. Religious institutions, volunteer organizations, and other local outreach organizations should suffice. Tax breaks would help generate enough capital to take care of this.
Locals would be much more demanding of recipients. They would know the people, and urge them to work or ween them off support.
The major things like Medicare and Social Security, should be turned over to the private sector as well.
If handled properly and incentivized properly, the federal government wouldn’t be going bankrupt trying to pay for these programs.
What’s more, the Left wouldn’t forever be able to say thing like, “Well, you fought Social Security too, and look how well that worked out. And Medicare, it’s laughable to think we could get by without that. You guys are always standing in the way of progress.”
Can folks even imagine being able to keep or at least deposit all the funds they now pay in for medicare and social security? Drop Welfare off at the federal and state levels, and man what a boon to the economy this would be.
Over time, we need to ween ourselves off these government programs, and replace them with privatized programs that will serve the citizens much better.
Yes, quit whining and start fighting.
Because no one ever moved up the economic ladder before Obamacare.”

Why don’t the commie ‘RATS just pick up the tab for these “po folks” and not throw it on the backs of the American taxpayers? The communists want to bring 30 to 40 million Mexican Nationals here to vote for them next. WHO THE HELL IS GOING TO PAY FOR THEIR MEDICAL BILLS? The communists should do it with THEIR OWN MONEY!
Who’s whining? I’m alternating between laughing (Bwahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!) and fighting.
Tens of ones, as we hear it!
