    Default The unspoken success of Obamacare

    The unspoken success of Obamacare

    By Douglas J. Hagmann

    11 November 2013: Despite what you are being told, the Affordable Health Care Act (ACA), commonly known as Obamacare, is already proving to be a resounding success. The problem, however, is that the majority of Americans don’t fully understand the objectives of this plan, or the roles of its architects and its defenders. Even the vast majority of conservative pundits in all venues don’t seem to ‘get it’ and consequently, are leading their readers and listeners astray by focusing on the wrong issues.

    First, it is vital to understand that the ACA is not now, nor never was, about providing affordable health care. It is merely disguised as such. Rather, it is the vehicle that is being covertly used to conduct the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that this nation has ever experienced. It is being done methodically and for a specific purpose. It is the vehicle that will ultimately disassemble and destroy significant parts of the United States Constitution and further enslave United States citizens.

    And then there is this from: http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/...r_failure.html

    So, as I watched the failure of the rollout unfold on TV, I questioned whether or not the progressive agenda actually had the skill to pull this off. Maybe they were really inept, as government most times is, and there was no way to pull this off. But then it hit me like a Mack Truck. What if the rollout was going as planned, secretly behind closed doors it was planned to fail. You see, the insurance companies still must abide by the restrictive and burdensome regulations starting Jan. 1, 2014 no matter what happens with the government website. But the failure of the government web site only speeds the demise of the insurance companies.

    And also the same theory from Ann Barnhardt in her latest interview.

    Agreed. The ACA or "Obamacare" is working exactly as intended, authored and orchestrated. The goal is to destroy the private insurance system, cause the private insurance companies to go out of business, thus setting up the government as the ONLY source of "health care". This will effectively make every American "citizen" a controlled subject of government.

    The government will then have every option available to completely control every aspect of life under penalty of denying health care and/or financially penalizing people.

    Obama hates America, the Constitution and Bill of Rights. His actions and words tell us this.

    This is one of many articles the denver Apologist has ran. The one with udal asking for a 2 yr extension / keeping existing ins coverage is a fun read (the comments) too. The first 2 weeks of ACA roll out, debacle, not one PRO O / ACA person was seen or heard from. This week they're getting a little bolder. Unfortunately a vast majority of Americans "believe' the same shit. .

    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    Liberals are stupid. They are not evil geniuses.

    Then Republicans must be drooling morons with the mental capacity of sea urchins since the Liberals seem to outsmart them at nearly every turn.

    Personally, the dismantling of the insurance system would be great. Your entire life is insured, your car, your house, your health. You pay massive corporations significant money for what usually amounts to nothing, which they use to manipulate the economy and make more money.

    Try having twin teen-age drivers. One got rear ended, $7,200 repairs to her car. Three of other incidents totaled around $5,800. Home warranty - $100 deductible each for replacing a $1,200 water heater and $5,000 furnace. Annual premium total of $900.

    Maybe getting everyone off insurance and having to pay for things themselves would cause people to be more responsible. But probably only if we had a judicial system that would truly penalize and enforce restitution laws.

    Home warranty isn't insurance, but that's unfortunate you have those kinds of expenses. However, do you really think getting rear ended costs $7200? Or maybe a dose of ibuprofen in the hospital costs $500?

    We are required to carry insurance for nearly all aspects of our life, which means they get to raise costs at will because "someone else is paying for it".
    Keep Calm and Carry.

    Most people realize insurance is a numbers game that makes insurance companies rich. Unfortunately most people can't afford to risk the one time the odds do not favor them.
