The point is to rob one group to buy the votes of another.

Thanks for reminding me.

Omg, this place never ceases to entertain me.
Seriously, this dude even has kid as part of his login name. He must not have qualified for VA, Medicare, Tricare or whatever else he's been ******ing about.

Now the beneficiaries will get used to the sugar and Single-Payer is here to stay for good.

I have to give President Obama credit, he will have a significant place in the history books. He will be the President who transformed America from a Constitutional Republic into a European-Style Social Democracy.
He will be right up there with Woodrow Wilson, FDR and LBJ.

Obamacare is going to be a milestone of American Social Enginnering just like the Federal Income Tax (Wilson), SSI (FDR) and Medicare (LBJ).
So, tell me, does the future matter at all, or is it just your goal to empower an all controlling government to satisfy some kind of mental illness?

LOL

Ahh, yes, the "social justice" crowd.

Look, it's ok. We realize that there's a few of you out there who never grew up and never learned a single worthy life lesson.

However, ALL of your stupid ideas are just that. And, nothing you believe in is true, right, or moral.

And, not a single one of your ideas works, or has any merit at all.

I'm sorry, I forgot to finish this. I dunno, maybe it's old age.

However, once you have empowered government with absolute authority and control over your life and everyone else's, you will find that government is the single most destructive force in the world, and that you, or future generations, will suffer horrors so bad that you've never even dreamed of them.

You want to hand the monster the chains to bind you, thinking it will be your slave.

However, you just turned it into your master,and it is indeed the most cruel and immoral master there is.

Thankfully, my daughter and I are healthy, but if one of us had a major illness, I would not, today, own my house mortgage-free, or drive a paid for new car, because I would have been paying off major medical bills for years and years.

It's my understanding that ACA is NOT for the average working person, but mostly for people with pre-existing conditions or people like me in earlier years; working, but too poor to afford health insurance. In other words, people who would fall 'between between the cracks'.

It makes me laugh when I read posts from people saying getting health insurance through the ACA is 'way more expensive' (thanks Obama..lol) than what they get at their place of employment. OF COURSE IT IS! It wasn't meant for people who get it through their jobs!
But let's not forget the folks who lost their insurance through their jobs because their hours were cut. Also many companies are now offering insurance to only the employee and not their family - thus leaving more families without coverage.

Dude, I'm on your side. I'm against Obamacare as much as you are. I'm just laying out the ideological points of the other side. Obamacare will create so much chaos and destruction, that at some point the American People will beg for Single-Payer. This is all by design.
