“Bricks thrown through your window.....Call Al’s Glass.”
Apparently a half a billion dollars is not enough.
If only the sick people who really need insurance sign up, then the health insurance industry could collapse. They would have to raise premiums at a massive rate for everyone, which people couldn’t afford. If every health insurance company goes bankrupt, then even the Republicans won’t be able to refuse signing up for single payer, because there will no longer be a private sector option for citizens to cover huge medical bills.
The law says health insurance companies cannot charge more for sick people, and they cannot deny any people with pre-existing conditions from signing up. That’s why premiums for most people are going up. If the healthy people don’t sign up, which the individual mandate was supposed to force them to do, then the insurance companies will collapse under the dictates of Obamacare.
Republicans calling for a delay in the individual mandate with no other delays in the law are hastening the collapse of the insurance industry and the arrival of single payer.
Yes they will be able to, as the pain spreads from Obama care and the GOP stays out of the way of this story , an feeds THIS STORY a bit, then pressure to repeal Obamacare will mount.
Even Dems know they cant get people to buy into gov run single payer if they prove to us that they cant even produce a working website.
I know Rush is now claiming Obama created a non-working website to promote single payer, much of Rush's logic is ridiculus and that is a great example.
SOunds like guvmint schools - more money = worse results.
Many people will get taxpayer paid subsidies for the exchanges. As the uninured GO UP then Dems lose the argument completely.
Oh, read between THESE lines. If Hoyer was a Republican he'd scream about financial mismanagement, malfeasance and incompetence. But he's not, so he's not screaming? That'll play well.
Obama's answer to the failure of the website will be to blame the private sector insurance companies - Waxman is already promoting that meme.
He will point out the needless complexity of multiple insurance companies with a plethora of products.
By limiting the choices to only those developed by the government and having the collective pick up the tab (single-payer) the solution becomes trivial and a half-a-billion-dollar website becomes perfectly functional (by government standards).
We may then all go back to praising the wonder that is Obama (Mmmm...Mmmm...Mmmm...)
Obama and his thugs are at fault for constantly changing the requirements, spending too much, and for picking a company which may not have been capable.
You have to write the check to know what the amount is.
We are going to have single payer. I have no doubt of that. People aren’t blaming the Democrats for the problems, yet. By the time they do, it won’t matter, as they will have destroyed enough of the private sector we will have little alternative.
He has received his orders from the White House. Let’s print more money we don’t have to pay a bill we don’t need, and go deeper into a hole that we DO have.
didn’t lucifercare require no reimbursement for doctors who make mistakes and want to charge twice for the same medical issue?
Not enough time and money to do it right the first time.
So let’s fix it with more money and more time. THIS time it will work for sure!
I hope they hire even more incompetent idiots to fix the “glitches”
bump
No, it's a way to be able to blame somebody else when they don't spend the money.
It just needs more money.
Typical Dem.
Thanks, Steny.
I hope the Americans out of work and on reduced hours appreciate your comment for what it is.
Dhim, very Dhim.
As long as the GOP ignores Rush and stops interfering with the news stories about how bad Obama-care is, then the Obamacare deterioration will create a souring on Obama-like big government solutions.
The shutdown is over. Those crisis news themes are over.
Now the current juiciest crisis news theme after the shutdown debt limit is what a disaster Obamacare is and how January 1 is coming soon.
It no longer :
When will the GOP pass clean a CR to open the government?” or
“Why does the GOP want to stop Americans from getting health care?”
Its now :
“Why is Obamacare so ... f....ed up?”
So it begins...”If we only had more money for Obamacare.”
(”Politicians say more taxes will solve everything
and the band played on... Ball of Confusion-Temptations 7 May 1970. Nothing’s changed.)
This morning Greenspan tried to explain that Social Security and Medicare are welfare programs since the tax money you’ve sent has already been spent. A majority of people do not understand that.
We’re so screwed.
Exactly! Let's no forget John McCain, Graham, King and the rest of that RINO gang went public validating the democrats' false premise that the GOP House shur down the government.
I'm not voting for the re-election of my "republican" Senator in Nov. 2014. Better to have a democrat in the seat blaming the republicans than it is to have a republican sitting in that seat blaming republicans. At least we can call the democrat statements "political rhetoric" and be believed.
