Wow! Real Reason why they hate the ACA..
Since I just received Medicare was not aware of this..This is something..
From: Daily Kos

The Kos link is a story on how the GOP supposedly does not like the 404-DemOcare website because it includes a link to register to vote. The author of the Kos posting also suggests that the dems generate a mailing mail of everyone who signed up for DemOcare and send them this note.
You know that health plan that you signed up for last year? Democrats made that happen. Not a single Republican voted for it. In fact Republicans did everything they could to keep it from happening. Remember that when you vote.
Yes!!!! Please, in the name of all that is wholly, do that.

This could backfire. When people try to actually use their insurance and find out how expensive free really is they might recall the letter saying who was behind this.

Yes, please do...

Yeah remember that you wont be able to find a doctor to take your insurance because the doctors won't be able to get the payouts just like Medicaid and Medicare.

Insurance companies should put that in with every cancellation and new higher monthly premium invoice they send out.

And the doctor should give that to you when you have to cough up your out of pocket expense.

You think your health care is expensive now, wait till it's free.

I was remodeling a house and a buddy gave me a "free" big Kohler bath tub. This required me to spend another $5,000 and weeks on the bathroom. Prior to Obama Care that was the most expensive "free" thing i had ever got.

I spent 5 hours last night and have spent 5 hours this morning with my BCBS of NC agent trying to get enrolled on-line. I make well over $600K a year and yet the website wants to enroll my under 18 year old child in Medicare, and NC isn't even participating in the Medicare program. I called 2 times yesterday, we called another 3 times with the agent this morning trying to figure it out, but they can't explain it, they can't fix it, and they offer no help to remedy the situation.
But the site's fixed, you know. :wink:

Can you just go directly to the insurance company and sign up?

Only one reason to go to the web site and that is to get a subsidy which you won't get. Go to your insurance agent and they will get you set up just like they used to. Only difference will be it is twice as expensive will have double the deductible and triple the co-pay but you get all sort of goodies you don't need by lowlifes do.

No.

No can do. In North Carolina, all insurance agents have to sign up their clients via the obamacare website. Doesn't matter if you make $0 or $200 trillion, all NC apps are through the obamacare website. Period.

This is the biggest bunch of baloney I've ever seen. I can fill out the Get Started, Family & Household, and Income sections with my eyes closed. But you get almost to the end of a section and it'll time out on you saying they're too busy.
BTW, if you're trying to complete a section -- let's say Family & Household -- and you're answering all the questions for each person (in my case; me, wife, two kids) and it times out, when you log back in you have to start all over with the first person. You can't save the info on each individual as you complete it.
Whoever designed this site needs to be shot, along with the idiots in DC who voted for it and the dolts that elected these dimwits.

If it makes you feel any better, lots of white guilters who make too much for subsidies are going through the same hell you are. Hopefully it will sink into their thick heads and persist until Nov 2014.

My main objective now is learning how much more will it cost me than it did before, and how can I create enough business expenses to offset that increase by paying that much less in federal taxes. Hey, if they're going to charge me $3000 more a year in premiums, then I'm going to find a way to pay $3000 less in federal taxes. Money's got to come from somewhere, and it won't be me paying out more.

Makes you wonder how big of a lie their claim that the website is working for 80% is. Also, since they haven't built the "back end" you will have to eventually chase down a swamped ins. co. to pay all that extra money.

...and then give them a position in government that has no checks and balances for job performance and we're off to the races.

OK, finally did the only thing I could do. Ended up getting a policy for me, wife and over 18/under 26 yr old son. For my daughter, I have to get an individual policy via BCBS of NC.
That's crazy that you can't even get a family policy via obamacare that covers everyone. Can you even imagine prior to this mess going to your insurance agent and telling them you want to get a healthcare policy for your family EXCEPT for your 17 year old daughter, and for her you'd like to get a separate policy? Whatever politicians promoted this obamacare junk aren't worth shooting, but I'm willing to make exceptions.

Just be glad you don't have the junk insurance you had before Obamacare.

It's a good thing that this is a diktat because if it were in the private sector this Obama fella would be bankrupt...several million times over.
