4. Small price to pay for the millions of people that have never had insurance.
With a bit of household budgeting, I'm sure they will manage.
Pardon the **** out of me, but why can't those uninsured do a 'bit of household budgeting' too so they could afford insurance to begin with so that their neighbor would not be forced do? How come someone dare say it's not compassionate to ask the same of the uninsured person, yet they think it's totally appropriate to say to that person's neighbor who already is living paycheck to paycheck . You might have a point if we were talking maybe another 100 bucks a year but this is thousands upon thousands of dollars effecting people firmly in the lower to middle to upper middle income--a majority of that who have already felt the pinch with higher gas prices, stagnating wages, and increases in all kinds of other necessities. Where in the hell do you think someone living already paycheck to paycheck is going to magically budget thousands of dollars from? Some of those premiums and deductables are house payments--something you were outraged over when it was your beloved uninsured trying to get insurance is suddenly ok to burden people now--and these are healthy people--wtf will they do when they are too sick or old to work? Who now takes care of them? I'm sure by then all the losers will be sending the used up producers to the death gallows--this is nothing short but modern day slavery---nothing short of it!
To blue grass, go to hell. We've 'budgeted' enough for your poor voting habits since 2008. Just when we saw gas under 2 bucks a gallon again you vote this nonsense into office. What about you can't get blood from a turnip do you dipshits not understand? The people you are raping to insure other people don't get the same kind of subsidies your beloved uninsured do by way of food supplements and all that other horseshit(btw things you would not include as 'income' when it comes to getting subsidy yet comes out of income for people who actually have to pay for those things--so your people get a break and those people don't even when effectively all sources of 'income' balance. They aren't talking about dipping into disposable income--they are talking about affording a roof over their head, a car to get to work, and food on the table for their kids. You are heartless, selfish mother f*ckers and I'll leave it there. All along calling other people selfish and evil and lacking compassion yet you are the gold standard. Goes to show you the old saying is true that whatever someone else constantly accuses another person of doing, they usually are doing themselves.
For the DUers who are getting this and understanding what utter slavish horseshit this is, we don't have to agree on everything my friends, but we must band against this evil. On this issue we should come together...I know there are some of you there who have sticker shock an know this is ridiculous. Time to put your arrogance and childish views aside and fight for what you know is right. This is not the way to go and you know it. You know this is inherently oppressive and amounts to slavery via wage confiscation. You know this. Do the right thing and ignore the arrogant and selfish on your board who don't care if your kids and loved ones go without. We told you those who were the loudest only were so out of their own selfishness and by the quote above and many others like it you know it's true. You got played in a game of, "I gots mine".While you gave a damn about them, they never gave a damn about you other then what they could use you for. You were a useful idiot to them; don't be one anymore.
