• My God, just how long can a train wreck take, even in IMAX super slo-mo? What could go wrong here?

  "‘TELEPHONIC SIGNATURE’? As of Jan. 1, Obamacare Forces States to Accept Applications ‘Signed’ by Voice"

• If we get 'single payer' out of this fiasco, it'll be such a cluster f*** that only a blind, deaf and dead communist will think it's working.

  • Welcome to the Progressive party and their minions , the MSM.

  • That "blind, deaf and dead communist" sure plays a mean pinball!

    • or pin-head

      • While I appreciate your love of anime, I like the Heidi avi better :P

    • Sorry say it again, but have your passports ready to sidestep Obamacare & it's restrictions/rejections.

      • I foresee hospital cruise ships right of the coast in international waters.

        • Like they did for Katrina? If I remember correctly, they sent hospital ships to NOLA to help out.

• I hope the ACA bankrupts every insurance company that bribed it's way through passage.

• EVERYTHING done in response or in "fixing" Obamacare will lead to single payer... THAT WAS THE POINT!!!

  This would have been avoided had the law not passed!

  • That was the plan. To screw things up to the point that "something has to be done". The only thing done, when we look back, will have been the destruction of the greatest health care system the world has ever known, & the research that drove it.

    • But it's going to be, "Look what the Republicans did to it! They ruined it! Now we have no choice but to fix if for good!"

  • I agree that was the goal but they fucked up so bad nobody will let them have total control. The idea was to have it cause a little pain and blame it on the big bad insurance companies that were showing at least a modicum of competence. now the feds under King Barky the Incompetent screwed the poch so bad single payer is a long gone conclusion.

• All these insurance companies climbed into bed with the devil and now they can't stay in business. Let them bear the fruit of their mis-deeds.

• Funny, Florida didn't participate in the exchanges, so we only had the failed Obamacare website to look at. Lots of choices, unless you wanted to save money.

• Blue cross, blue shield, blue hoo

• I doubt it will. The fitter companies will continue and the weaker ones will be bought. You know how the free market used to work before Obama.

  As far as BCBS goes in the PRoC they are the only game I had a choice of on the Obama Care site. Some competition huh? You can have any insurance company you want as long as it is BCBS.... at double the premium.... and triple the deductible.... with four times the co-pay. But as Obama says, it is a good product. A product people will be happy with.
