It's certainly the only way it makes sense.


They couldn't get Obama's dream of single payer health insurance through, so they create an environment that bankrupts the healthcare insurance industry and forced government to "bail out" the players, creating a de facto single payer system.

Either people will wake up and realize that Obamacare is going to screw them and the Dem/Statis get ran out of DC on greased rails or they will beg for the government to save them from Obamacare and go single payer.  Right now I say it will fall in favor of the Dem/Statis as the propoganda arm of the party will be spinning this in full force.

I fully expect the quality and availability of care to plummet.  It is likely I will see my parents suffer greatly in future years because of this.  I fear for my children and I pray that they remain healthy and that I never have to see them suffer because of Obamacare.

I was just talking to a good friend about that this morning. I was telling him the Lowes story and told him I truly believe all this Obama shit is going to blow up in the Dems faces. I think it will take enough time to happen where people will still have it fresh in their minds come mid-term election time.


It might cause more Republicans to get elected, but don't count on them getting rid of Obamacare.  I remember during the GOP convention, there were several commenting that if Obama got re-elected, Obamacare would be permanent.  I think they'd love to control Obamacare in the future, and now they can do that while blaming Obama for putting it into place.


This...the fallacy that Republicans want smaller government is there to see.  They just want to control the government programs and increase if they can...

I wish it wasn't true, but sadly it is.

The government has literally made it the rational choice to work less and leech off the producers in society.

I've personally witnessed this exact scenario play out w/ single mothers. They work as much as they can w/o losing their benefits. They go to school and get degrees, hoping to find a professional enough position that will allow them to get off welfare, but the free healthcare, daycare, food stamps, cash assistance, housing vouchers, etc...make it almost impossible to transition to a full time job and still pay their bills.

They basically need to find a $60k+ job w/ full medical and daycare right off the bat. They do not allow the mothers to get partial benefits in the daycare, housing, and healthcare areas to transition to working. I've seen women crying about this, ashamed to be on welfare, but trapped by it

We both know the highlighted art isn't going to happen, except in a few parts of the country where the cost of living is so high that $60K barely affords a one room apartment, let alone daycare costs.

It usually takes a few years or often even a decade or more of working for a company to cross the $60K threshold.

Lemme put it like this. Right now my work group has been working without a union contract for going on three years now. I'm not in the union myself, but my wages and other benefits are still determined by what the company and union negotiate.  Anyway, the reason there has been no agreement is that the word "terminate" was used in the proposed contract, regarding health coverage, and the union wanted it removed. Basically this means that the company insisted, for the first time ever, on having the right to eliminate company sponsored health insurance for it's employees altogether and the union pitched a fit.

During one of their rant sessions in the break room (big time union pukes and Dem voters), I jumped into the discussion and said "What's the problem? This is exactly what you guys asked for during the election and now that you've got it you're all pissed off! What gives?" They asked, "What do you mean by that? What's the government got to do with it? It's just the company trying to take more of our benifits away because they don't care about anybody but the shareholders and board members!" So I explained, "Look, big companies like this spend, on average, about 16% of their total operating budget on healthcare costs for their employees, and it just keeps going up. Now, due to Obamacare, which you guys are soooooo in love with, they can now dump that cost and just pay a "fine" of about half that amount and leave it up to us to find our own insurance, that is unless we'd rather do without insurance and pay a fine too. I tried to tell all you people all this and more  was coming before the election but you wouldn't listen! Now you've screwed us all! "

Idiots! They ain't seen nothin' yet and they're dragging us down with 'em!

Because they are the root cause.  The companies have been put in a "no win" situation.  

They cannot raise prices fast enough to keep up with this.  Any price increases may potentially drive customers away.

MOST companies do not operate on high margins.  Supermarkets are like 1-3% of sales.  This means they also do not have extra money to spend to pick up this cost themselves.

So those two things drive them to shaft them employees since its the only way to avoid the problem.  Not that this doesn't cause problems itself.  ( more employees to train, greater turn over, etc)

I've personally witnessed this exact scenario play out w/ single mothers. They work as much as they can w/o losing their benefits. They go to school and get degrees, hoping to find a professional enough position that will allow them to get off welfare, but the free healthcare, daycare, food stamps, cash assistance, housing vouchers, etc...make it almost impossible to transition to a full time job and still pay their bills.

They basically need to find a $60k+ job w/ full medical and daycare right off the bat. They do not allow the mothers to get partial benefits in the daycare, housing, and healthcare areas to transition to working. I've seen women crying about this, ashamed to be on welfare, but trapped by it

Trapped by bad decisions.  
Let them cry.  Let them feel shame.  I'm paying for them to breed and until they cut out the "free" line, they'll keep right on doing it.

Huh? You don't support welfare reform that allows those who want to work full time steps to do so?
Are you familiar with the "Welfare Cliff"?

I know all about this "cliff".  I know the system keeps the party of handouts in power.

But for anyone on this type of handout, I simply don't feel sorry for any of them.
