Who are the people who are against Obamacare care and why?
What is the problem with some people who don't want others to have health insurance? Some of the things that are in obamacare the republicans were in favour of. But no more, why?
i'm against it because it isn't single payer. it's a haphazard version of universal health care with unnecessary middlemen skimming off the top and doing nothing to force down costs. eventually, it won't work, and we'll get Medicare for all, which we should have done in the first place. however, half of the country is apparently AOK with paying for the uninsured to get primary care at an emergency room, and is ready to fight in the streets over any attempt to change the Roosevelt-era policy of tying health insurance to specific employment.
to those on the other side who are ready to hold the budget hostage and potentially cause us to default, i'll say this :
you lost the initial vote. the PPACA was passed. you lost the court case, and the law was upheld. finally, you lost the 2012 election, which largely hinged around whether or not to repeal the law. you lost. so did i. get over it.
one more thing : if the idiots in the house go bat**** again and cause a default, we stand to lose our credit rating, and interest on the debt might really jump. on top of that, if we keep looking unstable, we might lose our status as global reserve currency. don't like taxes? that would amount to the biggest effective tax increase in modern times.
this is idiotic, and it makes me angry.
for those who are about to flame me with partisan rage, answer this : a Republican is in the White House, and dems control the house. they refuse to consider a budget bill which doesn't contain a 70 percent top tax margin, and are willing to default over it. do you support that? is that the way you
want policy made? just remember, this
will be the case someday. ready to set that precedent? i sure as **** am not.
