Yes! Especially when it pricks the people it was intended to help!
I see why you're pleased, then.
Not pleased on this, unfortunately. Would be better if the President's signature health care law actually helped those it was intended to.
Yes, it's unfortunate you cannot be pleased on it.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Ricter Riddle for today!
That's the best he's got?
You know Ricky. Attempt to confuse an opponent to make a clean getaway.
Those it harms the most are those who are self employed, early retirees or otherwise not covered by an employer AND who work hard and make decent $$. I know people who are paying almost 20% of their annual income for Odumbocare. Why? Because (1) their is a marriage penalty (2) they are forced to buy a policy with coverages they can never use (3) they had their prior policy cancelled.
Example: A couple where one makes $45K/year and the other only $20K. So they have $65K in income but that exceeds the cutoff for a couple so they get no subsidy at all. They are in their mid 50's. And they get to pay almost $11K a year just in premiums.
Who makes out like bandits? Slackers, people who leave full time jobs to work part time to reduce income so they get almost free Odumbocare policies, slobs.
In the Toilet' -- British NHS Today; U.S. Healthcare Tomorrow
By Deane Waldman
A September 6, 2014 headline in Great Britain’s Daily Mail announced, “Now NHS lets you jump the queue for routine surgery... if you'll pay for treatment yourself.” The article proves that Britons are trapped in a healthcare system that is now in the toilet -- failing both medically and financially.
What is happening in Great Britain’s vaunted in NHS (National Health Service) is of vital interest to Americans. Dr. Donald Berwick, one of the prime designers of the Affordable Care Act, proudly said in 2010 that the NHS was his model for our ACA. By seeing where the NHS is today, we can foresee where U.S. healthcare is headed tomorrow.
To reduce the escalating costs of their healthcare system, the NHS has been rationing care, either by stating what care will be denied or by restricting how much money is allocated and thus limiting the supply of authorized goods and services. That is why people wait forever for care. When not enough money is expended to pay doctors, to buy MRI scanners, or to construct operating room and burn units, what happens? People die by queueing. American veterans know about this up close and personal.
According to official British government statistics, in August 2014, there were 3.2 million Britons – 5% of their total population! -- awaiting surgery. Some – 189,571, to be precise -- had already waited for more than four months!
