    History tells us whatever that great price was you never know what you have until you use it, and many were shocked then too. We also have those that were shocked when the were dropped after YEARS of paying premiums when they finally NEEDED that insurance.

    Why ignore those shocked people and only acknowledge the new current ones. People, we have many people caught up in the insurance company scam.

    Right, because we all know most companies sell their junk products for twice the price of their premium stuff.

    That's why it's good to be a wise consumer. Caveat emptor.

    So let me get this straight, those greedy b*stard insurance companies putting profit over people are intentionally selling their premium plans at half the price of their junk. And you think we're too stupid to know what's in our best interest? Bwa ha ha!

    Not stupid, unaware. Who reads the fine print? Stupid is thinking they want to serve you, and have your interest at heart above their PROFITS.

    Stupid is believing that the government is serving your best interests .

    Stupid people don't read the fine print... and take the snake oil salesman at his word. And 18 year old doing it might be naive... but a 38 year old doing it is plain stupid.

    Particularly when 99% of it IS fine print.

    Once again the irony goes right over your head. Businesses have to serve to make a profit and survive, the government just takes what it wants without regard to your interests.

    What you live in the Nazi state, the Communist state? Your government can only take what your representatives let it, the fault therefore lies with the people who elect these shining examples of democracy

    I can't explain why people keep vote certain ways, but I guess you've missed where the people didn't want obamacare and those Dem a$$holes forced it on us anyway.

    Well if that were so your Supreme Court should have struck down the law. They didn't do that. Now either your lawyers were inept, your judges corrupt, or you just don't accept that both houses passed a version of the bill, what didn't happen was the reconciliation process. Obama may have been hasty, but apparently what he did wasn't illegal.

    We can go all over the fact that some parts of the Law could have been better drafted and some could have been better implemented but an election clearly demonstrated that the people left the Presindent in office

    Let's review, shall we??? Here, in THIS great country, we pass laws with a majority of our elected officials... And, THAT'S exactly what we did. I don't call following our beloved Constitution forcing ANYTHING on ANYBODY.

    It's the Republican a$$holes who don't understand how our country works.

    excon

    PS> By the way... What about those Republican A$$HOLES in the states who're ramming abortion laws down our throats... I'll bet you call THAT democracy in action, don't you???

    I get how it works, they're supposed to listen to the people. Which side listened to their constituents, the Obamacare a$$holes or the abortion a$$holes?

    Obviously we have different constituents. Why should Obama listen to YOUR constituents rather than the ones who put him back in office?

    What you thought the TParty was the only constituents? No wonder you don't understand why people voted the way they did.

    They listened to the candidates, voted, you lost. Why is that so hard to accept?

    This has nothing to do with any election, it's the fact that the majority of the country said NO to Obamacare and Dems passed it anyway with no attempt at bipartisan support. That's rather dictatorial, not democratic.
