    Why not? isn't that why there is a discussion board? If you pay attention to anything on here, you would see the same old shit from quacker. A copy and paste link job from either Breibart or Drudge. If he had an original thought of his own, I would hope it would be to assert his 2nd amendment privileges, buy a gun ( with or without a background check) and shove it up his right wing uneducated ass. Pulling the trigger optional

    Please provide credible links that show illegals get coverage. If they are legal, they are paying in. If not, they are providing info to get their own ass deported. How is this a bad thing?

    That is the weird thing about insurance coverage. The price seems absurd unless you need it. Then it turns into a real deal.

    First of all, you have no idea what the depth of my economic knowledge is. Secondly, your reputation proceeds you as a prude, snobbish, uppity slantey, eyed fetish fucker. I could care less about your neg reps, as you have none to brag about anyway.

    Why is obama out there selling obamacare today, in a White House briefing, in the Rose Garden?

    Why does he have to continue to sell a law that his party forced down our throats over 3 years ago?

    Is it because it is an unworkable disaster?
    Is it because it is a job killer and most everyone knows it?
    Is it because liberalism always fails in the real world?

    Given the literally unbelievable fuckup that it has become, when will he simply delay it at least a year? Or is he really going to fine people anyway for not doing what he tells them to do, even though they cannot even do it?

    Who the hell is barack obama?

    HANNITY: They're really telling you to tell us to check back in on the website in off-hours. Does that mean that I should go on at like three in the morning?

    OPERATOR: It was saying early in the morning and late at night, but some people say they do that and still can't get in.

    HANNITY: So people are reporting to you the real deal?

    OPERATOR: Yes sir, they are.

    HANNITY: Have you ever got anybody that really likes it yet?

    OPERATOR: Umm, no, not really.




    But, because of the force of a one-party government, DO IT ANYWAY OR WE WILL SEND THE IRS AFTER YOU.


    Welcome to the "transformed AmeriKa".

    Boatshoes even if you disagree at least posts his own thoughts. Can't say that for Quaker.

    A Red State user posted their attempt to get coverage for their family.

    $50,000 a year insurance quotes.

    This is what "change" looks like.

    The scheme doesn't work if the only people that sign-up are the ones getting subsidized free coverage.

    For the cost of your cell phone bill? Who in the world will get coverage for $100/mo?

    The whole point of Obamacare was to break the insurance market and usher in single payer.

    Liberals believe that the tens of billions of dollars spent on insurance industry middle men each year is waste that should be directly funneled to healthcare providers.

    By breaking the market, you can eliminate the 3rd party insurer who provides no real value that they think government couldn't replicate.

    Seems to me if the quotes and rates keep coming in for Barry's beloved middle class like the examples shown, then the Cruz delegation could be heralded instead of loathed. No matter how the administration portrays Obamakare, it still wreaks of the garbage it's made of and the middle class has a nose.

    They also kind of backed the administration into a corner. If a few months from now this continues to be a debacle and Obama wants to delay then it will vindicate Cruz and the Repubs.

    Seems like they may have opened that door today, but they aren't incorrect in a wait-and-see approach to fixing the exchanges. And due to the point above, I imagine they will pour a ton of resources into fixing it. But that still isn't going to make people sign-up for expensive plans.

    This. And not to mention the majority of people signing up are ones that have a pre-existing condition who will likely burn through any amount they pay in insurance through medical bills. The whole thing is a joke and I can't stand liberals who defend this piece of shit. Any time you provide criticism against it, they simply say they actually want single payer because its cheaper with better care(just look at Canada!). SMH.

    Because we all know that the gubmint always does things right.

    "That is the weird thing about insurance coverage. The price seems absurd unless you need it. Then it turns into a real deal."

    Which is why typically a driver of a Honda minivan pays less in premiums than a 22 year old with a Corvette. With Obamacare it taints the economics....which you would know if you weren't an economic moron.

    More negative reps.

    Time for the GOP to just let the ACA go...at this rate it'll defund itself and collapse under it's own weight just in time for the 2014 midterms. They're silly to not just step aside and watch Obie fall on his own sword.

    Not sure if it has been covered here, but someone on another site made a good point about being afraid to use the site. If the overall quality of the site is a disaster, is there reason to believe that the security components are any better? Would a massive personal data leak surprise anyone?

    How is he worse than Quaker? Because he disagrees with you?

    My guess is, within 2 weeks, the individual mandate will be delayed a year. Hopefully she continues to crumble from there. They need at least 30 million sign ups to get anywhere close to paying for the disaster; they will be lucky to get 7 million in a year ..............oh, and that doesn't count all the tens of billions they robbed from other programs in the form of payment/reimb cuts.

    What's this guess based on? Because if the accuracy is like most of your predictions then there will be something to the tune of a billion people signed up by next week.

    Because he is an idiot and doesn't understand the concept of insurance. How stupid does someone have to be to not understand that a risk based industry is focused on risk? Are you stupid or are you really stupid?

    There's no risk in anything denominated in US currency because the Fed can press a button to credit a bank account when needed.
