    There are two types of people that are born, those who were born to pay for the affordable care act, and those who were born to receive the benefits of the affordable care act.

    This poster is in the latter, with pre existing conditions, and a net recepient for life.

    What's in Obamacare? the word "Free" and the phrase "No Co-pay"


    And anytime the word "Free" is loaded into a Program, the Free-loaders get in line.

    All kinds of nasty stuff...

    ... obviously the public hasn't thought this one through...

    ... think about it...

    ... the ones who are going to have to pay the 'tax penalty'...

    ... are the ones who can't afford the premiums in the first place...

    ... so it will disproportionately affect the poor.

    The poor and much of the Middle Class as most consider it from 0 to 400% of the poverty line get help with premiums and out of pocket costs, the very poor are supposed to go on Medicaid states might reduce that to 100% or under the poverty line they could (exchanges are by law supposed to cover those over that). If Obama is returned to office states will have a simple option take all the Medicaid money and expand their programs or not and do so with the flexibility the court gave them to decide where to offer these benefits.

    For example say someone is at an income of $12,000 a year in 2014 and gets into an exchange he would at most likely per year pay for premiums $360 a year [$30 a month] and 15% of all out of pocket costs hardly crippling to the pocket book. That is for a typical worker low income around here 3/4 of one days wages for the premiums a month around five hours of labor. That is in the law.

    The set of information present in this post will favor those people who generally avoided to have proper heath care due to its high investment factor.

    Obamacare already had 12 middle class tax increases.

    For example. If you sell your house 4 percent of your profit goes to obamacare. Im sick of paying for people to stay home.
