We need a ACA lie debunking thread.

I figured it wouldn't take long and it didn't. I've already started to get emails positing all of the horrors that will occur now that ACA has been upheld.

I know that plenty of people feel that such crap should just be ignored and deleted much less posted on DU but to me a lie that remains unchallenged is a lie that will spread as the truth.

We used to have a Propaganda Debunking Group that was rarely utilized. Maybe we could have a ACA smear debunking thread that could be pinned for quick reference.

It's a suggestion...

Great idea, let me start,
1 It's not a tax. The 0bama administration swore up and down it's not a tax, the SC ruled that it is a tax, 0bama still says it's not a tax. Therefore 0bama is lying.
2. Premiums will fall by 3000% and your employer will give you a raise. Okay we all know he misspoke about the 3000%, however premiums have not fallen and will not fall anytime soon, and employers are not handing out raises from these phantom savings.

Please feel free to add to this list.


I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Key word being "used to".
What does that tell you, Pippy?

Not too long on the smarts department. :mental:
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

This country cannot afford "The Affordable Care Act"....there, debunked, move on.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
