So it appears that some, very few, folks are happy with Obummercare. Most appear to be upset that it isn't free. For example, monthly cost, deductibles, dropped work plans forcing folks into a more expensive plan. It appears that the only happy ones are the ones being heavily subsidized and I seriously doubt the comprehend that they have a deductible or co-pay or, they are like 2 million Obama Facebook followers, not real.

To the point, we know rates went up. That is a fact. We know the goal was to insure the poor which I believe needs done along with pre-existing conditions being covered. The current system handled a majority of these through write-offs or hospitals that were funded by philanthropy. Could we not have passed a law to require covering pre-existing conditions. Add a small 5% fee to all health plans. Threw that money in a pot and divided it up to cover the costs of the poor?

My issue with this cluster fawk is not the idea but forcing everyone to pay or be fined is...

It will collapse under its own weight.. You can flag this post and come back in a couple years because its going to happen.

So are you are real supporter of ObamaCare and think its a good thing, or do you just hate the right that much?
Not accusing you, just curious. Happens from both sides I know.

sonyc is a far left loon who has repeatedly posted her hatred of anyone not like her. We keep people like her on ignore.

Meanwhile, with every passing hour, people are waking up to the scam that's been foisted on them no matter how hard the nazi leftists try to cover it up.
