The very reason I cannot stand Obamacare is because Americans are now forced to get health insurance that they can't afford to begin with. Employers will skimp out on working hours so they don't have to pay for my insurance. My mother has to pay for my insurance until I'm 26, and she's struggling financially as it is without having to pay $300 a month.
Guess what? I as an American do not have a choice of whether or not I can opt out of these things given to me. Instead of targeting Americans who are still struggling from a recovering economy, why not target healthcare companies who are ripping off insurance companies and bloating the bill even higher, costing them and their patients thousands of dollars more than their service is worth. How about they let the American people buy insurance when they can afford it? Their law is costing people more money than it needs to be. If I had a choice, I'd opt out of my employer's insurance so I get more hours, and more pay. I'd opt out of being under my parent's insurance so my parents don't have to suffer.
Why not instead target the lower class people who are struggling to get by? Maybe set a law that an employee who is paid up to 50% more than the state's minimum wage is entitled to health insurance benefits at no expense to them. So employers will have to either pay their workers more money so they can buy their own insurance, or buy their insurance for them.
When the government says it's here to help... RUUUUUUUN away! It has been proven time and time again but there are always people who never learn the lesson.
Yes, you appear to be. Everything else that has been written about it on this forum has been extremely positive.
Ba ha ha ha ha Obviously you have convenient <extreme self centered> thinking. Obviously you have no pride knowing you are taking from others to support yourself. I hate Obamacare...
My monthly premiums increased, my deductible increased and now I get maternity care which I don't need.
ACA has been good to those of us with pre-existing disease. We get no subsidies, but our premiums are lower through risk spreading and with more competition in AZ.

I don't think your mother has to pay for your insurance until you are 26, you could take responsibility for that yourself. You also could skip buying insurance and elect to pay the fine/tax.
Just think OP... this might not have been the case if we could have seen what was in the bill before it passed. But of course Democrats had to do this in the back room and all democrats voted yes without knowing what they were voting for.
