Title: Clinton Tells it Like it is on Obamacare
Post by: Ben on October 04, 2016, 10:28:34 AM
Oops - wrong Clinton.

He actually nails one of the biggest problems, the supplement cutoff, which is just at a value that keeps people who work for a living from getting the "break". That makes middle class individuals and small businesses one of the most hurt demographics.

In the meantime I heard one of Hillary's shills trying to get out of it by telling reports Bill was talking about how things were before the ACA. What?

As a self employed small business owner, I believe calling it the affordable care act was a cruel joke.
It's not affordable and they don't care.
The premiums for a "bronze" plan for the wife and I plus the costs of deductible and out of pocket expenses will be over 1/3 our annual household income this year.

My brother told me at lunch today he saw and heard Clinton.  He said he went and checked his booze cabinet to see if he had been drinking as he thought he was having an hallucination.

Heard Michael Savage play the whole Clinton sound byte.....he was actually putting forth the argument for government to take over health insurance totally and eliminate insurance companies.
In other words, more nanny-state stuff.

that's not surprising at all; we have always known that Obamacare was designed to break our already-broken system so that the government could later take even more control. I'm surprised it's starting before Obama is even out of the office, but our overlords are getting increasingly brave in recent  years.

he is telling it like it is. One of the reasons his approval rating was so high.

My wife just started a new job after years in Kansas City the new insurance is great. 1/3 of her pretax income for a $2600 per person deductible 80/20 plan.

Great I am already in so much medical debt I think I will try to ride it out to the first of next year before restarting treatment. Thank you Obama for screwing the middle class. And fu congress for passing this piece of trash.

Almost enough reason to stay in the National Guard until I'm 60, not sure I want to do another 11 years, is that family premiums for Tricare Reserve Select is $210 + a month and individual is less than $50.
