‘I like you Obama, but I’m broke’: Americans upset that Obamacare costs money
The Daily Caller ^ | October 8, 2013 | Katie Howland and Whitney Waters

Posted on 10/09/2013 2:31:23 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Obamacare’s been stumbling along at quasi-full force for over a week now, and for some Americans, the Affordable Care Act is not all it was cracked up to be:

Justin Gaines @justing1284

I checked out an Obamacare exchange and it impressed me.. Until I saw the lowest premium for me was 3x what I am paying now

Their information will also go to law enforcement.....and if they have bad credit...the insurance exchanges can refuse them.

Wait til they go through the list of exchanges and no one will insure them...and in the skid row sections they will be numerous.....and so oooooooo oooooo what the Gov. excempt certain areas from the fee for not having insurance...and or “Pay” it for them entirely.

It’s hard to believe people are so out of touch that they’re surprised about the penalty for not buying insurance.

Go ahead and post a citation for that...and not the Florida article which was retracted.

Breaking:......Want to put this up 2nd Division..go ahead if you want...

Mayor Vincent C. Gray “crashed a news conference” held by Senate Democrats and asked Majority Leader Harry Reid to exempt the city from the ongoing shutdown.

“Sir, we are not a department of the government,” Gray told Reid moments after the mayor concluded his own press event about 50 yards from where Reid held one.... “We’re simply trying to be able to spend our own money.”

“I’m on your side, don’t screw it up, okay? Don’t screw it up,” Reid (Nev.) told his fellow Democrat.

This, i.e. Stein’s words,should be plastered all over the USA. Perhaps there are patriots that have access to bill boards. Perhaps there are congresspersons like McClintock of California or Cruz of Texas who can take the message to the people. Steins comparison is one of the best if not the best description of what is going on. And don’t tell me the illegals don’t also know this. For any people to knowingly want to go to another peoples country to literally steal the goodness earned by sweat and death of others does not make for true citizenship.

Lets add something to your suggestion - give them an option; they either have to enroll in Bambicare or surrender their right to vote for 25 years.

Today Rush said that the dems want to get this all out and going NOW so that by election season next everyone will have forgotten about it. I have never felt convinced that the crippling cost of obozocare will be forgotten as has the million and one issues that have come and gone before it.
