Yet so many lefties still brag about how great it was that Obama got his, err, Romney's Healthcare plan in place.

[Cigar]

I hear the same thing from about 100% of the people who already have insurance coverage.

How many people you know who don't have insurance?

Why don't you insure them?

How about from those who have been losing their coverage?

They are covered, try reading up on the law rather than bitch all day on the Internet.

How are they convered? please tell me as if you know something that I don't you can help me out.

As for your earlier question I know a lot fo people that currently ahve insurance that will not in a few months time!

Nost of the UNIONS have wavers that do not make them pay the luxury tax on their gold plated insurance programs, but that runs out is a few years, and they even there memebers are likely to loose thier insurance!

It is a terrible program that needs a lot of help or it is really going to hurt a lot of people!

I read this article earlier and to be honest I expected it, I expected the unions to turn on obamacare for a variety of reasons. For one Unions are concerned with only their membership and what affects their membership. I believe they are worried that employers will replace the plans they have with obamacare which in effect is a pay cut and a benefit cut. I also expect employers cant wait to do it if it saves them money.
Obamacare was slapped together all wrong way to fast and it was totally bumbled by Pelosi and the democrats in congress paid a HUGE price for it. Pelosi singlehandedly handed a majority democrat house to the republicans.

The unions are balking but it is not for the reason this article is stating.

As usual, the Head Troll (or is it Head Troll?), is FOS. Why no answer Cigar?

[Micketto]

How many people you know who don't have insurance?

None.

(You do realize we don't hang out with anywhere near the same type of people... right ?)


Why don't you insure them?

Because they're insured.

Any sensible questions ?
