What is the funniest/craziest thing you have heard blamed on Obamacare?

Posted: Oct 13, 2013

I've heard some pretty funny things with what people are blaming on Obamacare. I wanted to share one of my own and see what other responses are out there. My fiance's dad and I were talking(this was suppposed to be a serious conversation) and out of the blue he states that he feels my fiance's short term memory is due to Obamacare. I felt that was the end our family discussion becaue it lost all rationale after that.

Even funnier, when a friend who constantly spouts this stuff said he knew it was true because a girl he met in a "bar" told him her class studied "Obamacare" in college and it was in there. I told him to download a copy and see for himself. I should have asked him how many drinks they had during this discussion.

Mandatory - abortions,

Obamacare is not just some good hearted plan that the generous Liberal do-gooders wish to gift us with and provide for us. It will completely control us like slaves. The government will own a much bigger piece of us than they already do. The Irs will have power to seize our bank accounts, forclose our properties or anything else they want to make us comply with Obamacare requirements(by us, I mean businesses too; some businesses once they 1 year waiver expires will go bankrupt not being able to afford Obamacare costs for multiple employees; The IRS will seize them). You will need approval from a panel of beuracrats for this and that medical procedure. If your voter card says Democrat, you may be granted it; If you're registered Republican, you may not..It won't be until after the 1 year business waivers and a period of time of full implementation before people really realize what kind of train wreck it will be.Middle income working class, higher income people, and businesses will be crushed with the burdening costs of Obamacare. It will provide for the welfare recipients(but they are already taken care of under Medicaid) Obamacare is just a clever way of taking more from the haves and redistributing to the have nots."

Obamacare is why so many business are reducing workers SM - they don't believe you here

to part time. There are always consequences. And now, if you don't purchase healthcare you will have to pay a fine! How much longer will we pretend we live in something resembling a constitutional republic?

Keep your bashing somewhere else.

Provocation - lighthearted, my foot

[ In Reply To ..]
You dimmers can dish it out, but you sure can't take it, can you? What did you expect would happen when a provocative post like "What is the funniest/craziest thing....Obamacare" is put out there? Do you think you're the only ones with the right to free speech? You can laugh all you want about those of us who are smart enough to know what this president and his supporters are about. Go ahead and laugh now. You'll be crying in your beer before much longer.

Go to Facebook and read the posts about Obamacare. SM - miller time

Actually the best quote over there was, “The only difference between Obamacare and the Titanic is they had a band”. I almost feel bad for anyone who thought this would work.

You don't get to tell anyone what they can or cannot post - Especially when...

The main purpose of your post was to bash anyone who isn't gung ho for OC and ridicule those who have concerns about it.

Lighthearted my you know what.

Playing coy doesn't suit you.

This thread is as funny as telling racist jokes - Not funny at all

[ In Reply To ..]
How disingenuous of you to ridicule people who are suffering, who are going through the he!! that this system is starting to show. I don't. I guess that is because I have that human trait called sympathy and empathy. When people are suffering I just don't think its funny.

Thing is all of you are trying to pass off some of your "funny things you heard" as though these are jokes. Unfortunately what some of you think are "crazy" things are actually true.

So keep it up. This board has really gone to trash while the moderator allows your condescending, ridiculing, nasty, mean, hateful and spiteful posts allowed to stay. I never realized how many hateful people there were in the country until I came here. You all shame the democrat party, which once stood with the people and for the people. Gone are the Kennedy democrats. Now we just have the extension of the communist party (i.e. progressives) spreading like a disease.

Hope you all have fun with your messages of mean. It's like you are all trying to outdo each other with who can post the most nasty.

Good luck with that.

I just wanted to laugh at the random people out there just blaming everything wrong on Obamacare, its really really funny, sorry. Do the people doing bashing realize how stupid they sound? Apparently not.

So you are admitting that your post was not lighthearted - "I just wanted to laugh at people"

[ In Reply To ..]
You and others doing the bashing against people who have concerns are the ones who sound stupid. Apparently you don't get it.

You have just openly admitted that your post was not supposed to be lighthearted, but only meant to laugh at people who are not buying this OC thingy hook, line, and sinker.

Nice going!

What is your funniest, most embarrassing, disastrous beauty story? I'll share mine. I had long, naturally wavy hair in high school (early 1970's), and back then curls and waves were not good. Straight hair was in. So, I used to iron my hair right smack dab on the ironing board. One time, I left it on too long in a particular spot, and I looked like I had a giant POOF right at my right ear. So, I was left with straight at the part, POOF by the ear, then straight below that.

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’ ...

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 ...

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.
