Jay Carney on Obamacare

last month the state insurance commissioner, Julie Mix McPeak, approved premium increases of up to 62% in a bid to save the exchange set up under the Affordable Care Act. “I would characterize the exchange market in Tennessee as very near collapse,” she said. Then last week BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee announced it would leave three of the state’s largest exchange markets—Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville. “We have experienced losses approaching $500 million over the course of ...

1) Have it collapse so that single payer can be implemented amidst the ensuing chaos. 2) Have that happen on somebody else’s watch. Obamacare was designed to fail so the Democrats could “reform” it with complete government provided socialized medicine. That is the entire purpose for it. Obamacare is designed to collapse so they can backfill the vacuum with government run socialized medicine. Eventually, everyone will be on some form of Medicare. I believe that was one of Bernie’ ...

Read the complete article: BTW it says Rasmussen is skewed. http://www.thisweekinsociology.com/?p=225 Here’s a guide to what those polls actually say, beginning with a discussion of the basic mistake which almost all the polls make. Most of the major national polls on Obamacare choose to report findings on what percentage of Americans support the health care reform and what percentage favor its repeal. This simple distinction, braking public opinion into big blocs, immediate ...

ObamaCare, Death Star of the American Republic April 14, 2010 · 2 Comments A big h/t to beloved FellowshipOfMinds member FS for finding this extremely important and extremely frightening article. Remember what Nancy Pelosi said on March 10, which sounded utterly idiotic at the time? She said that “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.” It turns out Pelosi is not a moron. Au contraire, this woman knows exactly what she&rsq ...

So this is what I have learned. After listening about the new health insurance, this is what I know. There are 3 levels of care/cost. They are trying to get the young people to join to keep the cost down for the older people. Well after listening to a question and answer discussion on line program coming out of Sioux Falls, South Dakota hospital systems, it scared me greatly. If all the young people join this program, it will not help the older people who live on a fixed inc ...

Is Obamacare going to be overturned and when? ...

When discussing the ACA or Obamacare, whichever you call it, remember that it is literally like comparing apples and oranges (and grapes, pineapple and maybe even potatoes). Each state has different prices and different plans from the federal plan. Some states now have only one company offering a plan through their state exchange. Each plan has a different monthly cost, a different deductable and it goes on and on and on. The requirements are different from state to state ...

Just this week my medical reports have included: 1. A suicide attempt by a patient who was despondent over the hospital bills that had accrued last year (before Obamacare). Patient is still recovering from illness and was depressed about not being able to pay bills. 2. A patient who was uninsured who had probably suffered a ruptured appendix a couple of months ago (before Obamacare) and went untreated. Patient now admitted for an abdom ...

who said they wanted it to fail, but didn't think it would be this fast. Problems they thought they could get by with for a longer period of time are now blowing up in their collective faces, and it couldn't happen to a better bunch. ...

We have got to get representative to abolish Obamacare, insurance is no good for healthy individuals and we end up paying for illegals as well as Medicaid recipients, it is just not fair for the working class. ...

For those MTs on here cheering the repeal of Obamacare keep in mind that many of your fellow IC MTs are on Obamacare currently and with health issues. They were unable to secure insurance prior to the ACA and today are covered for their health issues at an affordable rate. You write of soaring premiums under Obamacare but fail to take into consideration the cost of individual health insurance rates in your "free market." Those rates for me were over $1,200 per month for 1 ind ...

There has been a lot of going back and forth today about Obamacare and it seems there are a lot that approve of Obamacare and think its good for Americans. Some have said they have read the law pertaining to Obamacare. So for those of you that understand the law, and if it is so good for us then just why did our Congress and Senators and Representatives opt out of Obamacare? They continue to keep the insurance that they had previous to Obamacare. You know the insurance that they pay nothing for ...

1) If this bill is so wonderful, then why have Obama and Pelosi resorted to bribes, threats, and arm-twisting to get the votes? The "compassionate" Demonrats should be falling all over themselves to support it. (This one's rheotorical; their actions speak for themselves.) 2) If this bill is so great, why don't members of Congress volunteer to be the guinea pigs so we can all see how it works? (ANSWER: Because the "elites" [political class ...

"As discussed here, four Massachusetts hospitals now must cope with having thousands of patient records discovered in a public dump.

An Indiana company that makes medical devices has cancelled plans to build five new plants in the Midwest and may now build them overseas due to the abominable tax provisions that will hit medical device companies. In the case of Cook Medical, they estimate the added tax would be $15 to $20 million. This is money that cannot be used for expansion (read, jobs). I'm so glad they passed Obamacare "so we could find out what's in it" (Empress Pelosi of San Francisco). Well, we' ...
