I supported the ACA, but my policy that I like is being cancelled because of it. [View all]
I believed in the ACA, and President Obama's (whom I voted for) promise that it wouldn't take away my policy if I liked it. I still do believe in and support the ACA.
But I got a cancellation notice from my insurance provider, briefly mentioning that due to ACA, and through no business reason of their own, they could not continue the policy. I like my policy and want to keep it, so I called my insurance provider. I got forwarded from the usual first-line rep to a fairly well-informed and intelligent business retention manager. I had quite a lengthy conversation with her. She answered all my questions, many of which were meant to vet if there were reasons other than ACA that the company was cancelling me. She patiently went through a lot of detail with me, and my conclusion is that the existence of the ACA, and only that, doomed my policy.
The price I'm seeing on the government healthcare website for comparable coverage I had is three times what I was paying (after the subsidies I'll receive). I am not rich! I'm really not even middle-class, to speak honestly.
I don't think of myself as "poor", I did get some subsidies, but THREE TIMES what I was paying? Intellectually, I still support the ACA, but emotionally I'm a wreck. I don't know how I'll pay for coverage I was getting before, and I'm extremely worried mostly for my children, not really for myself.

3. cool story, bro
Now... so we can validate the truthiness of your claim...
What is your approximate income?
What coverage did you have?
What state are you in?
Frankly, I don't believe you. Sorry. Seems like a bouncy.
So...basically...DU wants personal information to determine if your story is correct in ONE thread, and in another thread, the NSA is evil because it listens in on CalPeg's phone conversations about aching seed.
Ummmm...OK.
Here's the real problem, lurkers: you guys are hopping up and down, screaming that OF COURSE the plans cost more, because we're getting better care. But whenever anyone has to temerity to reveal that
they will be paying more, you don't believe them.
You guys need to get together and have a serious conversation about your narrative.
And you need to FILM that conversation because it would be the funniest Robert Altman film ever.

What a dope, he finds out he was lied to yet he still supports 0bamacare. And they constantly tell us we vote against our own self interests.
-
Damn they are eating him alive. Everyone wants to practically see his tax returns. Yet if he was claiming that he saved 3000% they wouldn't ask for proof.
I also enjoyed the DUmmy that basically told him he didn't know his old policy well enough to determine if it was a good deal or not.

Anyone who comes there and claims that obamacare is anything but a shining success will be mauled. They're insulating themselves from anything and everything that doesn't agree with their narrative.
Problem is that the real world doesn't care about their insulated world. When the two collide, as it will continue to do, then watch out.
Gonna need a lot of this :popcorn:

Liberals will give their last nickel (and yours too, of course) to anything 0dumbass wants. ANYTHING. And after that, I am beginning to suspect that many of them will give their lives (but yours first).

Canned food and shotguns, DUmmies.
Better start loading up on both, pronto.

When will Obama publicly lose it when the cACA Obama HellCare legislation bombs with more and more reporters? This is so big that I think that an NBC guy might ask a tough question and then BOOOOOOOM!!!!1111!!!!!eleibinty King Barky the Petulent is going off teleprompter and lose it.
The question is really when will the evidence of the complete and total failure of the Obama Coup get to the point NBC asks his highness a semi-tough question?
I'm going with December 4th. Four days after the website promised is still unworkable, unserviceable, and unsecure (sic). Although It could go to the 15th, this is NBC we are talking about.

Interesting thought. I think it'll be closer to the 7th, and it'll be prefaced by Chuck Todd saying something on MSNBC the day before, which will cause Chris Hayes or Rachel Maddow to lose composure.

The whole thread boils down to "you are not saying it is fantastic...you are a traitor,kill him"

No. Far more likely is Valerie Jarrett, the Handbag Maven Behind the Curtain, advising 0crackhead to hide out in the White House and on the golf course. MSDNC will be given its talking points, David Allen will be handed a refreshed list of people to boot, and Bill Clinton will need an extra ding-ding to handle all the action 0moron sends his way in exchange for intimate sit-downs with all the news anchors, extolling the virtues of this failed and
hideous law. I am just thankful that Sasha and Malia are both under the age of consent.

Well, DUmmy Dan, of course your shiny new Obamacare policy is going to cost three times what that crappy old sub-standard policy cost you. That old policy probably didn't even cover your contraception. Make yourself a budget and move on.

Yep he needs to quit being eternally stupid too. Only in this case that does apply, he's a DUmmy so therefore he is stupid.

Wait till the money starts actually leaving bank accounts and paychecks. Wait till people understand fully what "deductible" means. It is going to be awesome. Think about it: when 0dumbo is slipping his hand into their wallets for three large and that only takes them a third of the way through their annual deductible, they won't be crowing about how much more care they're getting. It's going to be sweet.

Pretty sure even DUmmies know DUmmies lie, all the time.
Everything rodeowebuma said about owebmacare is the exact opposite.

Wait just a minute. These nuts can make up a story about how they blew a unicorn shitting Skittles to convert a lifetime conservative to the lunacy of liberalism and these clowns lap it up, but if someone tells a story that matches hundreds of other reported stories they call it a Bouncy?
It seems a lot of fictional spirit-guides aren't doing their jobs properly.

I'm being beaten with baseball bats. Seriously! But, I still like baseball bats and would love to beaten some more.

Exactly, yet self-interests being a sliding scale depending on the day of the week and the quality of the bud.

God, I hope so.

You can bet that he won't be making a personal interview appearance anytime around then if it's still bombing (A speech with no questions in a friendly venue like a university, maybe), instead there will a mishmash of conflicting statistical information and balderdash about "Mixed results but generally positive trend humma humma humma" released on the first Friday afternoon after November 30th.
