Obamacare is becoming unaffordable


Plans in the ACA are getting unaffordable while covering less and less. Especially for those of us in our 50's and 60's who are charged much more.

Assuming Hillary wins and the Senate flips what can be done with a Republican House assuming it doesn't flip.

What can be done to relieve us from these terrible plans at ridiculous prices that we are forced to buy?

For those of you in this market who haven't yet checked prices and coverage prior to open enrollment hang on...you're in for a shocker.

We have to pass the bill to see what's in it....  :fuelfire:

The first clue Obamacare was going to be expensive is when they called it the "Affordable Care Act".

Gee! Conservatives and Rs predicted this back when BHO, Miss Nancy, etc. were concocting it! Part of the reason they wouldn't publish it before voting on it was so that conservatives and Rs could not show specifically why it was a fore-doomed disaster. So, dear DU-folk,

Who could have guessed all those front loaded freebies to kids and women of child bearing age would have to be paid for by someone?

Why do they keep blaming Republican's for the prices/coverage?  No Republican voted for Obamacare.   :mental:

Because they can never admit that everything they touch is a effed up mess.

22. Transfer the Seriously and Chronically Ill to a Taxpayer funded Public Health.

Half of what we pay in health insurance goes to cover the couple percent of serious and chronically ill patients. About 5% of people account for 50% of healthcare spending. We really should move them from the regular ACA to a progressively funded Public Health Pool. It puts to much of a regressive load on low income families to lump them in with everyone else. Single Payer Tax funded chronic health coverage for those in the top few percent of healthcare spending and such chronic conditions.

Aspirin and funeral home stocks should skyrocket.

because in their world, if you repeat a lie often enough, it eventually becomes the truth.

Rocky: Again? That trick never works!

Bullwinkle: This time, for sure!

Tiger: Raaaaawwwwwwwwwrrrrr!

Admitting and owning ObamaCare is a failure is too close to admitting their worldview is a failure.

Slap yourself, Gina.   EVERYTHING, since the beginning of time (2000), is the Republican's fault.   Before time began, it was all Reagan's fault. 

Same, same.....

There can be only one good result from this.  The progressives who want to be handed everything can't afford health care and will pay a tax and get nothing.

To all of you I hope the following results from your not having any health care (BTW I work for myself and wince but can afford the most premium plans out there - I and my family will be just fine):

Die.  All of you progressives who hate the USA.  Die.  In agony.  Do it in family groups so I can laugh at the exquisite delight of you all watching each other die while grasping November 2004 Mother Jones in one hand while banging out your adioses on du.

Sloooooooooooooowly.  With pustules and boils and constipation/diarrhea switchoffs.

Die you enemies of America.

Die.  And thank your child-god when doing it.

That's a nice idea, but what could you do the the residue that results from it?
Regular wood chips make a great mulch, but chipped DUmmy is likely to be loaded with the stoopid to morbidly toxic levels. If you spread it somewhere you'd likely have braindead leeches sprouting up everywhere.
I'd rather have to deal with nuclear waste!
