Just like Amazon.com, Obamacare has no idea who has paid for stuff already shipped … oh, wait
Legal Insurrection ^ | January 16, 2014 | Professor William A. Jacobson

It’s bad enough that the Obama administration counts as “enrolled” people who merely have done the equivalent of the Amazon.com shopping cart — expressed the desire to have some stuff, in this case Obamacare.

Amazon.com doesn’t count stuff put in the shopping cart in the sales figures it reports — that would be securities and accounting fraud.

Amazon.com also doesn’t ship the stuff you put in the shopping cart unless you pay for it before it leaves the warehouse. That would be stupid.

But Obamacare does. It provides coverage to people who haven’t paid a penny, and worse, it has no current way of figuring out who has paid for what.

This cluster ***** is causing untold misery, and this commie doesn’t give a crap. It’s mind-boggling.

It was getting to a point where they could have lowered the salaries of pharmacists because we finally have enough. But now that they are chasing out the ones who have other options, that isn’t gonna happen. I was even willing to take a pay cut to get out, but God has watched over my family once again.

I went to my local Kroger pharmacy for a RX refill today. The poor girl at the window was in tears from people yelling at her all day about their "Free Stuff" not being quite what they thought.

From what I've seen the copays and deductibles for the Obamacare plans are higher than any insurance I've ever had. Those expecting freebies get what they voted for, and I'd enjoy their reaction at having to face the reality that socialism isn't fun.

I’ve been amazed that the pharmacies around here seem to be totally normal (definitely not the hood). In fact I sat around for a long time expecting to hear some kind of intense insurance discussion. Nothing. Been by several.

"I hear Obama took a tip from Amazon-——is ordering healthcare meds delivered by drones"

Free ambulance service too!

In a real world, you would assume the insurance companies would be screaming by now. Well, you see, the insurance companies are covered by the risk corridor clause and they will be paid by the taxpayers.

Single payer. This whole thing is a crime that begs for punishment. Obama admin and democrat heads need to roll.

This was out and out fraud on the American people.
