Has Your Health Insurance Been Cancelled by Obama?

[Imran Siddiqui]

I highly doubt that, Imran.

I can always hope!!

"FALSE HOPE IS WORSE THAN DEATH" --some sage college football fan quoted in This Week In Schadenfreude last year.

I agree "almost" is subjective. I contend that it correctly captured my meaning (which I have just clarified). But whatever.

You should have said, "almost no one thinks my meaning was horribly mangled by my wording" to maintain consistency.

[Guynemer]

I see HC DanSed me at some point.

From his ivory tower.

The way Obamacare is going thus far, I'll be stocked up on schadenfreude for at least 6 months by the end of next week. Longer if the website is still FUBAR by Nov 30. Liberal tears are delicious though.

The only people crying over Obamacare are conservatives. Yourself included.

Sure. Right.

OMG I'M SO TOTALLY FREAKING OUT ABOUT OBAMACARE AND ITS BORKEN WEBSITE. Oh, wait, no I'm not.

If the government didn't support vaccination in the US we'd probably be facing epidemics of polio, measles and rubella.

Oh goodie. That means that things like the HPV vaccine don't need to be covered whatsoever.

[Sava]

Sure. Right.

Most everyone, aside from people in the administration, thought this was going to be a bumpy road. Most liberals generally thought the ACA didn't go far enough... as it was not single payer.

In the sense that liberals are "crying", it would be for two reasons. One, the ACA isn't single payer. Two, they are all but forced into defending a crappy plan from the vitriolic right wing response.

Meanwhile, look at yourselves. The goal of any health care plan is to help people... to literally save lives. You psychopaths are cheering for its failure. Think about that.

And somehow an ACA failure is an argument that we should listen to any political ideas you have? If anything, it's just more proof that you psychos need to be locked up.

Hopefully, that happens one day.

But that's just hyperbole. Most of you are harmless idiots.

[Ben Kenobi]

In insurance situation people who are very high risk can't afford to pay, often through no fault of their own.

I'm one of those folks. Why aren't my hearing aids covered? My hearing tests? What exactly is in it for me to pay 300/month for coverage that doesn't cover anything that I actually need?

[MikeH]

And they probably would be in a single payer system. Single payer.

They'd be totally covered by the NHS and quite rightly.

[MikeH]

Glad you see the point that any insurance based system is totally terrible for people like you Ben.
