Obama's "signature legislation" is a disaster. Couple that with the "stimulus" and we have two of the most inept, destructive pieces of legislation initiated in modern times.

You obviously did not understand your own linked article. Indeed, so far none of you have read it, or, if read, understood.

The article points out a clear conflict. Even if one does not agree with the conflict described, I want to see if any of you can point it out.

So rather than discuss the fact that Obama didnt fix healthcare, because costs will increase, you want to discuss a "conflict"..

I'd suggest starting a new thread.

Maybe I'll go down to HHS and apply for a job as one of those "Navigators"...you know, the ones who will show people how to fill out the 65 page application...then, maybe I can move up to be on one of the "death panels"...Sounds like a good job...after 20 years, retire on a good Gubmint pension....

Well, I must be off to work. It is clear that you, and the others, did not read beyond the headline.

You see, a person must learn to read articles and digest what the article is actually saying. Headlines mean nothing (usually created by the editor). It is the substance of the article. In this case, the article points out a clear conflict: clear, that is, if you actually read it and think.

Indeed, I would think that those who have nothing but time on their hands, and spend literally all day on this forum, could take a few minutes to read the link.

I shall check in at lunch.

Why is it that everything liberals touch turns to crap? It is like an inverse Midas.

You utterly missed the point of the article, didn't you. Did you by any chance score rather poorly on the critical reading section of the SAT?

Our local hospital is laying off over 200 people. Nothing was broken until Obama " fixed" it.

Because its a republican plan. Force people to purchase for-profit insurance. Ask Romney if you don't believe me. Another words don't just blame one pathetic party, they are both equally horrible.
