Can’t understand that few know the difference between Democrat and Democratic.

A Republican is a member of the Republican Party.

A Democrat is a member of the Democrat (not Democratic) Party.

The longer this bill stays in law the stronger the cash for medical care market grows.

This bill mitigates having health insurance since the price of having it and paying for it have skyrocketed. It has gone from being a mainstream, middle-class thing to something that only the moneyed to have.

Drop insurance, folks. I will be doing so. It has lost it’s value. Having “insurance” that costs $4-5-800 a month with deductibles of $6-8-10,000 is no longer insurance.....it’s a scam. A tax. A way to bleed your checking account. They’ll come after your 401k later.

Dump insurance?

Ok when you are hit by a bus its ok for you and most importanmtly for your kids/relatives that you are left in the street?

If you stoke out there is none of this life is prescious BS and no feeding tubes right?

I don’t give a rats ass whether you have insurance but don’t expect me and the other taxpayers to pay for you and your families care ...

Visit the beltway sometime. It’s extremely educational. I recommend it for all taxpayers.

I drove through there circa 2003 on the way from NJ to KY, on family business. Listening to the radio and waiting for the HOV lane to time out was enough for me.

I do believe this, or fear it, at least. I am low hanging fruit. I know that.

They certainly won’t get much sympathy from the average informed American who is scared sh$&less about their future health care.

Exactly the words I’ve been tempted to post for years!

Irritates the crap out of me when they are referred to as the Democratic Party!

"In an interview with POLITICO, Ta emphasized that “employees are not dissatisfied with the Affordable Care Act” "

Strong with them, the stupid is...

It is our highly educated and trained MSM that is perpetuating this grammatical error and the polulation just falls in line behind them.

Take the penalty and get that money out of there. They are going to do it and I have no doubt about it. Public outcry? The FedGov doesn’t seem to be worried about that and public opinion up to this point wouldn’t seem to make them justified in being so.

Me, on the other hand........

Montana, you make the mistake of believing, that if paying money now to an insurer, that you are still paying a premium. No, you are now paying a tax. The insurers are no longer private companies but rather now interconnected government/private utilities. They have promise of government bailout upon failure. Tax dollars no different than Medicaid or Medicare.

I walk in front of a bus? I get an ambulance to pick me up and haul to the nearest hospital where then I am treated to the best care available. Upon regaining conscious if still alive and asked who is my insurer I say......”?” They at that point treat me until well enough to leave. Bill? Okay.

My point is that there is no longer any “insurance.” It’s done. Dead. Gone. It’s “welfare” now.

Sorry you are a deadbeat.

In my world conservatives pay their bills and don’t expect others to pay their freight.
