Maybe they want to bring down the health insurance industry. If a pandemic occurred, no doctors, no insurance, that means the government would have to be the one everybody would turn to( we'd be screwed). Massive depopulation anyone?

Well, decent conservative men--the kind you smear and demonize as teabagger knuckle-dragging Neanderthals--don't have to worry about this because they are happily married to one person of the opposite sex. It's not an issue.

It's hard to feel sorry for Sandra Fluke types.

Sorta correct.

The real goal of the ACA is to lead to single payer/nationalize health care.

Dems hope the ACA is a success. If it's a failure than they will blame republicans for not fixing it and than President Hiliary will push for single payer in 2016 elections.

I see this strategy a mile away.

Except president hiliary will lie that Obama lie and say the middle class won't have to pay anything extra for single payer and keep their doctors and local hospitals.

And still these "decent conservative men" who are happily married to one person of the opposite sex, do not want to take responsibility for insurance covering their maternity care. Married women get pregnant too.

Do a google search on Obamacare. There is lots of 'new news' out there. But none of it is finding its way to this site due to the discussion-stifling of single topic threads.

The funniest, though unfortunate, story I saw today is about a lady Obama mentioned in his speech who wrote him a letter thanking him for Ocare because she could buy insurance for $169/month. Turns out the Washington exchange site botched her enrollment and she was Not entitled to a $462 tax credit; she's not getting any credit. In fact, she's worse off than before.

Rude Awakening for Federal Way Woman Who Got Shout-Out From President

The article offers a real insight to the complexity and bureaucracy she encountered. Worth reading.

Yes there is more current news. And it's good news. 33% of Americans have signed up for Obamacare.

Wow. People are going to be SO screwed when they find out they actually DON'T qualify for the subsidy they were promised.

Lesson learned Obama voters. Hard to feel sorry for you. You're getting what you deserve.

Wow.
