At 1 % of goal, in first month ACA sign ups, is it long before .gov starts offering free toasters, or cell phones for signing up for ACA to the young and impressionable? Oh, wait, the cell phones are already available free.

You earned a response just because that was witty.

The other ACA target market, the subsidiaries already have the guns. See Detroit, Chicag0, Atlanta, any of the large urban areas. Only in NYC, heretofore, is gun violence not rampant. Guess that'll change under the new, improved, pwogwessive Mayor. Oh, goody.

ACA "target markets"...you talk as if you wrote the law. You know a whole way more than I do on "target markets" and "subsidiaries". I can't comment on what I have no knowledge of.

So help me, if they start going door to door pushing this Obama mess they'll get the door slammed in their faces and I'll call the police on them.

Because that would emphasize/expose the REAL TRUTH of the huge amounts of unemployed and underemployed in this country.

The sign ups will be the ones who get low cost health care. The middle class can't afford it so they will have to pay the tax and go without insurance.

Aw, hell no! Then parents might start feeding their kids toast or pop tarts for breakfast, and they wouldn't need a free meal at the gov't school.

Plus, the toasters would have to be EnergyStar certified, made of sustainable materials and the instructions printed in 900 languages. Maybe even hire Ed Begley Jr to show people how to power them with a stationary bike. Total cost to the taxpayer - $3,500 per toaster.
