Another Bunch of New ObamaCare “Features”
I ran across a few more “features” of that new law called the Pathetic Plethora of Amazingly Cretinous Absurdity Patent Protection and “Affordable” Care Act, AKA ObamaCare. So I thought I’d share them with TAH’s readers.
- Young? Healthy? Urban? You’re Probably Not Getting Subsidies for Your Insurance
- Middle-Aged And Older Folks Are Signing Up Disproportionately. They Tend to Need Healthcare More. Wanna Guess Which Group is Generally Healthy, Was Depended on to Be the Billpayers – and Isn’t Signing Up?
- Young? Many of You Aren’t Signing Up for ObamaCare At All
- Remember those “mythical” Death Panels that were a “figment of people’s imagination” or “fabrications by lying Tea-Baggers”? Well, according to a senior political analyst at Time Magazine – yeah, ObamaCare has Death Panels.
- You Smoke? Tough. Insurers Can Charge You Extra Out the Wazoo. You Abuse Drugs, Booze, or are Clinically Obese? Insurers Can’t Charge You Extra. Yeah, That REALLY Makes Sense.
- You Used Cover Oregon to Get Insurance? You Might Want to Check Out LifeBlock.
- Woman Battling Kidney Cancer Loses Current Insurance. Reason? Existing Policy “Doesn’t Qualify” Under ObamaCare. She Can’t Afford Replacement Policy Premiums Under ObamaCare.
- Colorado Exchange’s Worst-Case Lowball Projection? Almost Twice the Number Actually Enrolled.
- Most Americans (69%) Actually Are Pleased With Their Current Health Insurance. So Why Can’t They Keep It, As the POTUS Promised?
- It’s Not Only CA – CT, IA, MA, MN, NY, RI, VT, and WA Also Say the Administration’s Proposed Fixes Aren’t Good Enough.
- That WA Lady Who Was the Public ObamaCare “Success Story”, Jessica Sanford? Turns Out She Can’t Afford ObamaCare After All.
Not much new here, really. Anyone with a bit of common sense could see these coming.
But just remember, folks – these aren’t “problems” with ObamaCare. Oh, no. There are no “problems”. These are just “features” you don’t yet understand!
Yeah, right. And I’m the freaking Emperor of China.

Media outlets are now reporting that up to 80 MILLION policies may be cancelled due to non-compliance with Obamacare rulings in the next wave of cancellations.
And no, libtards, they aren’t “junk policies” like you’ve been parroting the last few weeks.
80 million policies translates to how many PEOPLE, considering many policies cover spouses and children?
This pile of warm runny shit is all on you, Democrats. Try and change that fact, I dare you.
Can we just Impeach this bastard on something? Anything at all? For Christ sake, Obamacare is an absolute disaster in the making for this Nation. Benghazi, Fast and Furious, IRS, EPA imposing “regulations” that are destroying busineses, the constant lies and opaqueness of this “most transparent administration ever”…
Dems? Oh, no, no – that scrabbling and squeaking you hear are the sounds of rats looking for an exit from the maze. And there is no exit.
So, what are they doing while they have us all focused on this mess?
The damage to this country was done the day they passed this stupid bill. That was just the enabling legislation. All the chaos that followed was intended. That was the goal all along, folks. It’s what lefties do – destroy all that is (was?) good about this country.
@2. “Can we just Impeach this bastard on something?” I prefer that “or something” part.
@2. Ooops. That was “on something” that you wrote not “or something.” A thousand pardons. Still, I like it the way I read it.
The great thing about Obamacare is that for years in their relentless quest to expand the state the Democrats enacted programs where they hid the costs in one way or another.
Taxes were taken out of individual’s paychecks or hidden in the cost of an item so that no one missed the income or noted the price, but that’s not the case with Obamacare, people can see the price and they are pissed about what they are being asked to pay.
Maybe now they will start to look a little more closely at some of those other costs.
As I was once told by a very important COL, “We didn’t lie to you, the truth changed…” Uh huh, riiiight.
Once again Oregon Leads the Way! In HIPAA violations. Way to go CoverOregon!
I would never live anywhere else but there are some things I truly hate about my home state. Starting with its deep blue political color.
OFF TOPIC
I just called the IRS with a question. After I spent 20 mins on hold, a minute or so ID’ing myself, and 10 seconds asking a question, I got five minutes of absolute bullshit. The SOB held the answer hostage while he gave me all kinds of irrelevant and nonsensical scripted bullshit. It was like asking someone the time of day and they respond with a weather report. I didn’t last and hung up. I guess he’ll call that a victory. I guess the IRS isn’t concerned with its image any longer. What assholes.
“IRS isn’t concerned with its image” – seriously?
@11. What? Several years ago, the IRS was whacked by Congress and, in response, started handing out Smiley Faces, so to speak. That’s what I am referring to. They actually made attempts to be nicer to citizens. Those days are over, evidently.
With 0bamacare, Heath care will have all the efficiency of the DMV with the friendliness of the IRS! What’s next, one-stop healthcare and tax audits?
The Emperor is taking heat over a lot of things lately, even from his beloved media. There’s a story out today regarding many media refusing to use posed pictures and other stuff that the WH propogandists hand out. It seems that access by the press has been curtailed greatly (that’s transparency, I guess) and that includes snapping photos of The Emperor. So, some 35 news orgs are refusing to publish the handouts.
“Last Thursday, a coalition of major news organizations including the Associated Press, New York Times, Washington Post, ABC, and CNN protested their photojournalists being locked out of public events in a letter to White House Press Secretary Jay Carney.”
I got a kick out of that list. It’s as if they are complaining that they have been replaced as The Emperor’s chief propogandists. Yeah, that’s the way it works with tyrants. They use ya and lose ya. Welcome to the real world, newsies.
