There will be millions who don’t have insurance yet don’t qualify for subsidies. There will be those who DO qualify for subsidies but can’t afford to pay $100 bucks or so a month.
I think those saying this is only to get government run healthcare in place are right. There’s no way this monster can support itself. It’s a Ponzi scheme. And Ponzi schemes don’t work unless everyone gets in early and new ones are constantly signing up. But even single payer is to destroy the country. We’re almost at the point of running out of other peoples’ money.
Lot’s of the gen-exers and those behind them (not all) are all for this because they think “we” stole their inheritance. For some reason my wife’s 38 year old daughter thinks she deserves an inheritance. And she thinks her siblings shouldn’t even be in the equation and she’s the only lazy one of the bunch. She was talking about someday getting her social security. She got real angry when I told her she wouldn’t get SS because she hasn’t paid in. So her next words were “Since I’m not going to get social security you’re going to have to leave me an inheritance to retire on. She’s one of the millions who really believes she’s going to get free medical care.
I received and email from my accountant who does my taxes. The email contained information on how Obamacare will affect me, the elderly and businesses.
What I got out of it was a family can get a government subsidies up to 400% of poverty level, I qualify but not by much. Don’t know how much of one, but I qualify. Thing is, barley. It may come a time when my wife has to stop working so I can stay in the qualifying curve. So to me thats government paying for people not to be productive....
I agree, this monster has quadrupled from it’s first estimate of 917 Billion over 10 years several trillion. It’s unsustainable and only a complete fool thinks otherwise.
FYI, if you want to see if you fall into the 400%, I did a google search for poverty level. Found a government site that showed the information.
