That is a total lie and maybe a bigger lie than Obama's.

No one is telling you what to buy, you have choices. Go choose one.

Piling on with more lies.

My previous plan had everything I needed and wanted. It covered everything my current plan does, but cost far less. What it did not have was neonatal care, pediatric care, or mental health care. And as a 50-year-old post-menopausal woman with zero mental health issues, those are completely unnecessary.

Just because King Obama and his Gang of Criminals decided that "they" know best what is a crap plan or a great plan, doesn't mean they were right.

I actually think this is true.

However, even as an Obama supporter, I think it is fair to criticize him for this. But of course, it's also true that those who use are mostly just looking for another thing to criticize him for.

My mother had one of those pre-ACA cheap policies that weren't worth the paper they were written on. Despite ongoing hospitalizations over several years, as well as everyday health concerns, never once did she get back the amount of money she had paid into those policies. So for most of you who are ditching about losing your cheap policies, in reality you lost virtually nothing.

Can't. Sadly, that FREEDOM has been taken away from us.

Hahahahahaha. Funny you should mention cable. Because NO, I DON'T have cable. Why? Because I refuse to pay for something I don't use. Which is what I tell the cable providers that keep trying to get me back. I refuse to subsidize those folks that want 500 sport channels, when I only watch 3.

I really couldn't have asked for a better example than you've given me here. We "all" don't wish to pay for things we don't want except for liberals who a) think they know better how others should live their lives, and b) can't think for themselves and have to be handheld through life.

The deductibles are insane. How are people paying these?!! Who has 10 or 12K laying around, while the premium is subsidized somewhat, the patient is expected to pay 12K beyond that right out of pocket. That is dreaming, that would bankrupt many people.

Well, you know, we needed it this way. Because the old way was bankrupting many people. Wait a minute.....

I lost my job and coverage.
I looked into getting new coverage.
Can't afford it. I'm fukt.
My wife has a few non life threatening health issues that more than likely are going to bankrupt us and we are going to lose everything.
I guess once we are homeless we can maybe get Medicare?

You can lie if you want, and I'm sure Obama will be proud of you for doing so, but don't expect ME to believe you or him.
If you can provide evidence of your post, I'll be happy to believe you.
