Just a few quotes from the story to help you decide if you'd like to click on the link:

* Cindy Vinson and Tom Waschura are big believers in the Affordable Care Act. They vote independent and are proud to say they helped elect and re-elect President Barack Obama.

* "I was laughing at Boehner -- until the mail came today," Waschura said, referring to House Speaker John Boehner, who is leading the Republican charge to defund Obamacare.
"I really don't like the Republican tactics, but at least now I can understand why they are so pissed about this. When you take $10,000 out of my family's pocket each year, that's otherwise disposable income or retirement savings that will not be going into our local economy."

* "Of course, I want people to have health care," Vinson said. "I just didn't realize I would be the one who was going to pay for it personally."


YEEEEP! You have to take the bad with the bad since you voted for O twice.

* "Of course, I want people to have health care," Vinson said. "I just didn't realize I would be the one who was going to pay for it personally."

They must have just realized that they are among "the rich."

edit: yeppers

"There's going to be a number of people surprised" by their bills, said Jonathan Wu, a co-founder of ValuePenguin, a consumer finance website. "The upper-middle class are the people who are essentially being asked to foot the bill, and that's true across the country."

Both Vinson and Waschura have adjusted gross incomes greater than four times the federal poverty level -- the cutoff for a tax credit. And while both said they anticipated their rates would go up, they didn't realize they would rise so much.

I hope the sheep ALL see the light on this and turn on O like wolves. So many people worship him as a Messiah and blindly believe everything he says. Maybe when they actually see the figures and how it will really affect THEM right in front of their faces, maybe then they'll wake up.

Just who did they think was going to pay for it, The Government

Same mentality as the ones who believe meat and fresh vegetables come from supermarkets. Open Season on Aisle 3 !

Who did they expect to pay for this? "The government."

They're also starting to figure out that the folks in the big cities are getting the biggest breaks. Hmmm...I wonder which party gets more support from voters in big cities?

Did not Obama promise that the rich would be paying for everything? I think he even defined rich as >250k/yr.

Looks like rich just got redefined to (Poverty * 4.0)

...It doesn't? Is that why they scream and call the cops when I go to set up a blind in the back corridor?

Any negative comments or stories about obamacare are all lies. It is the savior of our nation.

/sarcasm.

That's all you hear from liberals when you question obamacare. I almost can't wait to say "Told ya so" but that means it'll be too late.

I have no sympathy for anyone who voted for Obama, especially twice, nor do I care they can't afford insurance under his ACA. Stupid should be painful...physically and financially.
