You do realize I asked your friend to provide a defense of his post first right ?

At best this is a case of pot meet kettle, at worst, you are deflecting and trolling all over the place with one sentence responses to everyone. You add nothing to the conversation and never back up your own arguments or the people you defend.

Spoiler
I now have a much better plan because of Obamacare. Thanks Obama!

Can you afford the deductible and the max out-of-pocket expense?

Health insurance has become a hand out. Is losing this hand out and having to be more personally responsible for it, and paying more for it, any different from a person getting kicked off welfare and having to be more personally responsible for their own housing and food?

Just how bad are junk health policies?
Those cancelled 'junk' policies are exactly the same type as Obama is letting insurers renew for 3 more years. I understand your pain. Obama told people they could keep plans they liked, then you found out he lied, so went to the 'junk' policy excuse for the lie. Then he extends the 'junk' policies for 1 year, then 2 more years. Woe is you. Spinning completely opposite positions into all being good can't be easy.

Why not?

How many years has it been and it's not even fully implemented yet....but it's a damn great amazing law that will help everyone out.....but......let's keep pushing it out further and further....


Don't you feel ashamed that your party has put out there that they have delayed this again, because it is an election year? They said THAT....why would they say that if this is such a great law....

And how many times has this "law" been changed....I though it was great....amazing...best hing since sliced bread.....

We all know no matter what, those on the radical right will keep right on beliving all the BS their propaganda masters tell them without question.

The ACA didn't cause the apocalypse, the end of the world didn't happen, and all the other right wing lies all blew up in their faces.
The hilarious part is ACA is a capitalistic system. It allows people to have choices on a Healthcare exchange.

I understand that many people - not just Republicans, but some Democrats as well - have problems with Obamacare.

I can only tell you that for me personally it has been a good thing.

Before the ACA became law I was employed (am still employed) and I had health insurance, but it was a crappy policy and I wanted to upgrade to a better policy with another company (something many of my colleagues at work did). I have a pre-existing medical condition and was denied coverage by other companies offering better policies. After Obamacare I was able to transfer my coverage (started on Jan. 1st) to a much better and more comprehensive coverage. Yes, it is more expensive - but I am happy to pay a little more for a better policy!

So how many people had their insurance canceled? Fewer than you think - latimes.com

Why not Pravda?
