Following Waxman, Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) compared the cancellations to the government forcing drivers to trade in Fords to buy Ferraris. Under Waxman's logic, the fact that consumers might benefit from cheaper plans, even if those plans did not offer the same array of benefits, is irrelevant. The free choice of individual consumers and insurance providers offering a legal and beneficial product is defined as "abuse."
Under Waxman's definition, a student graduating from a professional school who happened to be older than 26 (and hence ineligible to stay on his or her parents' insurance) and who found a job in a small organization that did not provide insurance to employees would be a victim of "abuse" if he or she found an affordable individual insurance policy that provided basic protection from catastrophic health problems.
Waxman--and Obamacare--would rather force that graduate to choose between a far more expensive policy on the Obamacare exchanges (assuming he or she could register) that includes more benefits than he or she wants, on the one hand, or not buying any insurance at all and paying the penalty to the IRS, on the other, knowing full well that he or she could not be denied emergency treatment or insurance coverage later.

These clowns at this point are so full of sh@t they can’t even put a cognitive opinion out there that makes sense! Complete @sshat dizzying morons. It’s like arguing with an 8th grade class president who promised free crap if you voted for them.
You cannot have a rational discussion with people like Waxman. The very definition of common words is different. The thought pattern of liberals is so bizarre that there is virtually no hope they will comprehend your argument or have the slightest ability to objectively analyze their own positions. Its really quite hopeless.
America is governmend by pot bellied pigs with a few human chromosomes dispersed.
..shut your slop hole pig face
Yes, since the beginning, people of that ideology have been twisting the common meaning of words.
“Did God really ssssssay....?”
Well said, and tragically spot on.
The ‘freedom of choice’, isn’t that what the pro-abortion crowd has been screaming for 40 plus years?.............
Please don’t insult the pot bellied pigs. They are really nice...................
Waxman is a pig-snouted little totalitarian $hit.
Waxman: Capitalism is abuse.
Damn you! Don’t you know there is a no photo policy when dealing with this man?
Oh! You too ....strict no photo policy should be enforced!
Leftist Logic: Free choice = abuse.
LOL!!!
they are not being forced to trade in Fords for Ferrari’s they are being made to trade in Fords for Fords but without things they wanted, and with things they didn’t want and the new policy is priced more like a Ferrari.
DITTO!
