Those of us with working brains and decent educations knew from the git go that keeping your insurance was a big fat lie.

But watch the spin. Oh, what fun it is. It's almost as much fun as watching Feinstein saying she didn't say what she said about leaks coming from the white house.

And they believe her.

lol

Dear human who thought BammerCare was about helping Americans. you got lied to.

BammerCare is about breaking the system to force everyone into a singlepayer government controled Death Panel managed system.

That is what you get for electing a freaking PROG.

Nothing beats the twisted logic of hearing a UHC retard admit that they're happy if Obamacare collapses the industry and, as a result, the gov't ushers in single payer.

I think employer sponsored healthcare is going to go away because there is an alternative now.
Just like company pensions did when 401Ks started up.

That would normally be a good thing, but I'm pretty sure that individual plan premiums aren't tax deductible under ACA. Are they?

Decoupling insurance from employment would actually be a really onderful thing, if it can be done in an affordable, reasonably effective way. So I'd be cool with this over time so long as there would be a good alternative system set up. Theoretically, this would be the exchanges they're setting up...we'll see if that really works out...

Unless you get subsidized by Uncle Sam and then you'll have a credit for your tax returns.
