If you read my first quote, then that family in the example you provided wouldn't need to purchase the health insurance. If the insurance costs over 8% of your household income, you are not required to purchase health insurance. A family surviving on $450 a week is also considered to be well below the poverty level.

I will perform surgery on myself if need be.

My fiance got 7 stitches in his thumb sometime last year and even with insurance he still got a bill for over 2k dollars. Retarddddeddddddd I could've given him stitches for cheap




Yeah my health insurance is shit. I have a $4500 deductible even for regular doctor's office visits, blood work, etc. which means I have to pay for everything out of pocket until I reach that amount. Just last year I paid $4000 for crap that didn't even require a hospital visit. No point in my insurance unless I get hospitalized, really. That's why I'm going on Obamacare.

Basically if you do the math, then if your household income is $2,000 then you aren't required to purchase insurance if it will cost over $160 a month. Which is roughly the amount it would have cost anyway to get on your employer's health insurance plan. And people who are satisfied with their employer's plan aren't required to switch. This plan is perfect for people who have crappy insurance plans, or work in industries that don't offer health insurance (i.e. food service). And of course, for people with pre-existing conditions. Yea, what a shame that this program is actually going to help people who work and make an honest living but can't afford access to good medical care.

so that would leave how many millions of people uninsured, wasnt the whole
point of obamacare to make sure that 45 million people that couldnt afford
insurance were still covered... did you say it was to make sure that
everyone had healthcare coverage since we know that obamacare isnt insurance

here's a little recap

now post the section of the bill that provides free insurance or health
care coverage for the poor, not tax breaks at the end of the year, not the
option to opt out of insurance still leaving people uninsured

then read this and tell us how being poor and getting to opt out of
insurance and fines for failure to comply falls under the equal protection
of all citizens when those with means are forced to comply of face penalties
this is your constitutional lawyers at work

hahahaha... you cant 'go on' obamacare

maybe you should check the rates, the platinum coverage which covers 90%
for you would be around $300, more than it would be through an employer
offering similar coverage, now catastrophic coverage which covers less than
60% would be in the $150 range for an individual.

coverage provided by Humana National Preferred Platinum 1000/1500 Plan

You really think that keeping healthcare so outrageously expensive and unaffordable to even many middle-class Americans is looking out for your well-being? The whole purpose of Obamacare was so nobody would have to survive without healthcare. If you read the terms of the mandate, you can see that it is designed to help people specifically like you. For instance, if you make under $50K a year, the health insurance that you purchase will be tax-deductible, essentially making your health insurance almost free. Additionally, it is now illegal for insurance companies to deny coverage to anybody for pre-existing conditions.

If you really think about it, this bill is a good thing for people who are socioeconomically disadvantaged. Who do you think is going to comp the bill if you suffer some sort of injury or illness and receive a $50,000 hospital bill? Do you really prefer the type of "freedom" where you have to file for bankruptcy and have your credit score ruined just to be able to acquire good health?

The cost of healthcare is outrageously expensive in this country. Nobody should have to pay $8,000 just to deliver a baby in the hospital (and that's normal vaginal delivery, no C-sections, with no complications), or pay $2,000,000 to treat cancer. A $30 copay for a doctor's visit is reasonable; a $300 out of pocket cost for an office visit is not.



Obamacare relies 100% on forcing the group that has the least need for health insurance, young healthy people, to buy a product that is of little value to them.  It is fucking YOU over

Dude, if you read the mandate then you would also know that those who fall below the poverty line (i.e. those that aren't on the "legal" payroll or don't have jobs) can actually get their health insurance sponsored by the government. Basically they expanded healthcare coverage to people who are poor but don't qualify for Medicare or Medicaid. Two programs which I might add, that both Democrats and Republicans are in favor of.




They already had medicaid and medicare.  They are irrelevant to Obamacare and the mandate.

Yes, but I am just under the $45,000 bracket which means that I can apply the health insurance I get as a tax deduction. So in the long term = beneficial for me.

So first you complain because a family making $450 a week might not be able to afford so and so payments, and now you're complaining because these families will be exempt from making payments.

For starters, if it's a family supporting itself on $450 a week it's likely they are already eligible for Medicaid, which is why they are not required to purchase the insurance--they are already covered. What Obamacare does is make insurance eligible for those who cannot afford their premiums and stand to go broke if some type of catastrophe were to happen, and are not eligible for Medicare or Medicaid.
