While millions of Americans are set to suffer the consequences of Obamacare, Democrats in Congress are trying to find a way to exempt themselves and their staffs from the health insurance exchanges set up by this horrible legislation.
We have always known this law is a disaster, and now Democrats want special treatment while middle class Americans continue to bear the brunt.
If Obamacare isn't good enough for Harry Reid and his staff, it isn't good enough for us!

So...yeah, not signing that. I know it ain't perfect, but it has helped my family so far.
Until the GOP can offer a "better" solution to Health Care, then they should stop wasting their energy on this and either:
A) Start doing things to make more jobs
Lower gas prices
C) They should start looking for new jobs because at the rate they are going they won't have a job much longer

I have insurance through work and has not affected me yet.
Godfather.
because there was not a provision for the Feds to pay 75% of their costs in the bill,
that is covered now.
That's what they want to change.
Our work told us that next year they may opt to pay the penalty and not offer us insurance. They think both the company and employees will be better off financially if we get our own insurance through the insurance exchange. This is likely due to it being a fairly small company.

Not at all. I don't care who did this, whether it was Bush, Obama, or Reagan. This Health Care system is better than what we had previously. It's not perfect, but its better. I think its kind of dumb to basically be paying for everyone through taxes, but at the same time its good to know people are being taken care of and being treated with proper medical care. I think some revisions need to be made, not a full repeal of it.
I think its really ignorant when you say "those who don't work." It puts a negative meaning to that. I have a few family members out of work, not because they are "lazy" but for various reasons including business being shut down, medical reasons, etc. How you said it makes me think you think that not working equals lazy, undeserving people.
If that is not what you mean, then I apologize. But that is what I got from it.

no I didn't mean "lazy people" especially during these times but that being said there are plenty of people that make a living off the system that are perfectly able to work.
and I also stand by my statement about half assed politions and by that I mean dem's and republicans and anybody else in government that are not trust worthy and judging by past records I find it hard to trust any polition when it comes to our tax money.

I have twin sons, 24 years old that are now covered on my insurance plan.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
You could have bought them a plan on your own for probably cheaper....but I guess it's better to be handed something even if it costs more.

COBRA is much more expensive, i know that for a fact.

Stop it....you're making too much sense.

Have you looked into it? Before and after we were married, we had an individual policy for my wife. It was cheaper than being on my company's insurance at the time. I changed employers and it's cheaper here now, but the insurance isn't as good as what she had.
My point is that people think insurance doesn't exist outside of an employer, but for a relatively healthy 24 year old, you could get a high deductible plan for very little.

a good friend of mine(53 years old non smoker in good shape) lost his job and the cheapest insurance he could find for he and his son who was 18 at the time was $1400 a month, thru work it cost me aprox,$400 a month with a $15 deductable for my wife ,son and I .

we gotta spice it up a little.

the fact is that I am retired military and my family is also covered through that plan. However, the Military got a waiver from the Affordable Healthcare Act, and so my boys in college were not covered once they turned 23. We did the research, and even thought my and my daughter have good coverage, I bought a completely new family plan through my work. This policy is required to follow the new law, and therefore my sons are covered until age 26. The coverage provided was cheaper than had we purchased two individual policies for each of the boys.
show me a comprehensive healthcare policy for a relatively healthy 24 year old for very little. How much is very little?
Hail, Hail!!!
Her's wasn't high deductible and it was $225 per month. That was only 2 years ago.
Most 24 year olds are in pretty good health and can get cheap insurance. They are just brainwashed into thinking their company has to provide it for them.
If someone doesn't have $5K (or even $2500 as is the case for my deductible) "sitting around" to pay for their own health issues, then that should be their highest priority. But that's another subject.

You don't get health "care" from your employer unless they are a medical institution, but that's just another example of the brainwashing.
But I agree with your point. I actually think there's some merit to the notion that employers shouldn't even be allowed to provide health insurance. That's what's gotten us in this mess.

2 years ago my wife was paying $225 per month for good insurance. It wasn't high deductible and it was from Anthem/Blue Cross. She was 30 at the time. It was comparable to the insurance that she could obtain through my employer and was about $100 cheaper per month than adding her to my coverage.
I suspect the real issue is that people are basically incapable of paying for it on their own without it being automatically taken out of their paychecks before they get the money and paid for them.

Good old South Carolina. I love the southern charm from the Governor: "We will not expand Medicaid ever."
