Obama and the Ultimate Obamacare lie. “…most health plans would lose their ‘grandfather status’ by the end of this year. Not just the ‘5 percent’ of individual-market consumers, but close to all consumers — including well over 100 million American workers who get coverage through their jobs — have been expected by the president swiftly to ‘transition to the requirements under the [Obamacare] regulations.'” Now there’s a big pile of poop headed for a very large fan…

Drips and drabs of information. Now that the faucet is opening up, will those of us who challenged this PoS legislation and the namesake of it get an apology? No a chance in hell. We will still be called racist and bigots.
The useful idiots are finding out just how expendable they are and were. Dumb shits and fools.
October '13 - Obama told some people are getting canceled health care plans. Obama sez "it is not a problem. Forward. "
November '13 - Obama told some 5 millions will lose their current coverage. Obama sez "no problem, forward. "
Again November '13 - Obama told around 100 million will lose the coverage they have in January. Obama sez, "OK, so it's not my best idea. Forward"
Adapted from an old soviet joke about Stalin being told about the millions of famine deaths caused by his collectivization policy in the Ukraine, c. 1931-32. Notice the similarities in the communist approach then and now.
Similarities? It's a freaking clone!
And on the news this morning, the woman Obama referred to on his Oct 21st speech with all the uninsured people behind him, found out her healthcare wasn't so affordable after all!
He said "Jessica Sanford" was so happy that after years of having no insurance, and now she is paying only $169/month for insurance.
Well the Washington state exchange sent her monthly income ($4100) fed as her annual income! Now that the error has been corrected, she can't afford insurance! Turns out EVERY application Washington state took before Oct 23rd is wrong and everyone is getting sticker shock.
Now, my question is, if they thought she only made $4100/year, what makes $169/month so affordable? That means she would be paying $2028 or nearly 1/2 of her income for insurance! How would she be able to afford rent, food, utilities on $173/month?
This whole thing is a giant crap pile!
{Edit} BTW, the insurance co analysts are all now saying that with the dearth of people signing up for Obamacare, the previously predicted premiums will have to be adjusted way higher because not enough people are paying into the plans to cover the costs.
OOPS! I posted this before I saw this thread:

That IS a very good question, though. A single mother with an income of $4100 a year should pay half of her income for insurance? I wonder what the deductible was going to be? Maybe two thousand? Leaving her with a hundred a year to live on? What part of affordable to these people not understand?
Socialists lie about everything, but people are too enamored with the chance of getting something free to notice.
So, the real plan was for everyone to lose their insurance, not for the few unimsured to get insurance!
"Big Brother" healthcare, here we come!
...all in the name of clearing the field for "single payer".
Remember me telling Libby that currently he was not affected because she had employer sponsored group insurance? And remember when I told her to wait until 2014? Here you go!
