God d**n it. How the hell do you get blindsided by your own f%$#@*g legislation??? Should have read it first, you DUmbass.
  
They wrote it. They knew what was in it. They knew some policies were going to get cancelled because they did not meet the ACA standards, but are acting like this is all coming as a big shock.

Blindsided by their own legislation? For real? Yes, for real. Sucker.

Unreal.

Don't mind the noise. I'm just breaking things.

Shut the **** up, Alkie! We've been telling you and your ilk this for the last 4 ****ing years and all we've gotten back is that we're morons who don't know what we're talking about and hate The Won because he's black and we're racist. Even with the shut down, any little concession requested by the GOP was met with derision and name calling.

Well guess what? Own this turd sandwich cause if I'm going to have to take a bite, so the **** are you.

IIRC during the debate and subsequent to the vote on this monstrosity...I seem to recall reports of entire pages of the bill being blank with only a note saying "to be written after passage" or something like that.

Right there is how you "get blindsided by your own f%$#@*g legislation"

They could continue the policies. They just choose not to - and they are trying to say it is ACA. It isn't.

Of course it was the insurance companies...... :-)

I think there were a couple thousand instances where it said "to be determined".  That's where the added 20k pages of regulations came from.  Besides that, this is the perpetual never ending law.  They will continue to regulate it, just like the IRS tax code.

Damn insurance companies.

And how do they get away with charging higher premiums for auto insurance if you have a few wrecks?

And how about homeowner's insurance going up for people who have a bunch of claims?

And why do we allow them to charge higher premiums for life insurance simply because someone is old?
A twenty-year term policy should cost the same whether you're twenty-five or eighty-five, right?

There are so many other places where the muslim needs to force insurance companies to be fair.

Insurance is so unfair.
