Poor Americans WANTED ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE... THEY NEVER BEGGED TO BE FORCED TO BUY HEALTH INSURANCE.

As usual democrats were feeding their donors and big wigs... If Gruber had his way citizens would have been forced by law to buy insurance that would devolve into pure crap. Shame on democrat filth... shame on them.

Will the notices all go out before November ? Or is it buried in the 2,000+ pages that notices must wait until after the November election day !!

It would take R capitulation to get single payer.

And, frankly, now that I see the whole thing as the #uniparty, I have little doubt that is where we are headed.

That is my conclusion. Look at what they did to Cruz and now to Trump. They are acting like democrats......even to the point of saying they will vote for Hillary because the collective will of the people said Trump is our choice. I believe there is something much more to that that, but where is the loyalty??????

You betcha, especially since the rats want to take the majority of the House and the Senate away from us. If the succeed than Donald Trump won’t be able to do the things he wants to do to make America great again because the rats won’t let him.

Hillary winning by a decent margin (coattails) is the only way they could possibly win the House. Trump and dem House being elected at the same time = 0% chance.

On the other hand it is possible for Trump to win very narrowly and we lose the Senate, most likely this won’t occur but the 2000 election illustrates how it can, with the rats taking (or stealing) every 50/50 race that year.

If they can’t make money then they aren’t going to participate. Simple as that.

This is why I opt out of insurance altogether since the day the mandate took affect. I’ve saved over $40k after tax dollars. :-)


Without health insurance, one major accident or major illness would wipe that $40K away and put you in the hole for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Only two class of people can go without health insurance in today’s world, the very rich or the very poor. If you are middle class and have some savings and equity in a home and assets without health insurance you could lose it all.

Obamacare is nothing more than another Democrat wealth transfer scheme from the middle class to the “poor” with a cut going to big business and the government

Possible. But I might get hit by a meteor too. Would you pay $3,000 a month for health care insurance, or would you take your chances.

Yeah, me too.

And here’s the thing: Statistically, the odds are very low that such a thing happens to me. And at 62 and a Christian, I’m not afraid to die. It’s gonna happen anyway.

And interestingly, the longer I go without insurance the more faithless it seems to have it.
No, it wouldn’t.

It is your choice.

Although at your age you are more likely to have a heart attack or stroke then hit by a meteor.

I’m really not worried about it. The Lord provides.
