The thing with Obamacare is for a few people it made healthcare free but for everybody else it raised prices significantly. And the people who get it for free already have/had multiple avenues for free healthcare.


And those people that purchased the cheapest policies are now paying for the same care they would get for free before Obama care. Same “charity” clinics. Same “charity” doctors. It literally fixed nothing and made all of our premiums go up.

Actually, I remember Obama himself telling us how well this would work, “and when it does, they won’t call it Obamacare anymore.”

If history isnt written by progtards, how would it accurately reflect on Obama's achievements? At one point the left ranked him right up there with Lincoln and Washington lol.

Fair point. If during the obamacare debate republicans had simply said "we'd rather poor people and middle class people go bankrupt from medical bills or not be able to afford healthcare rather than actually spend money to help americans" that would have been an actual debate. Instead we got lies about death panels.

But I appreciate the honesty. Just keep on with the "frick americans, they don't deserve healthcare" slogan and we'll see who wins.

The reality is it hasn’t because getting rid of it means getting rid of pre-existing condition coverage.

No congressman on either side will do that, and frankly, they shouldn’t.


Why should other tax payers carry the financial burden for that person? If government would get out of the industry, it would all become cheaper in the long run.

And yet the Democrats are now pretending that Obamacare is the Republicans’ fault.


I feel like the GOP and Trump arent doing a great job of making this point.

They like to say it got people on insurance.


But I purchased insurance in 2010 because if not it was a $500 fine.



So you might as well pay for insurance and get something for it than just be out $500.


Never forgive them for this.

That's what Obamacare is though.

Strange that you should think that when it has actually been extremely successful. The goal of Obamacare was to get the nose of government provided healthcare under the public tent so that the body could be forced through later. And here we are.

Why is your Healthcare shittier?

Access has increased since obamacare and the rising costs of Healthcare have risen slower since obamacare. If you just want to bitch that some of the poors are seeing doctors that's fine but there's no need to lie about how terrible things have gotten.

Like I've said repeatedly, when obamacare was passed your ilk was lying about death panels. Now you're upset because Republicans even though they control both branches and the presidency can't offer anything better.

Im not on obamacare.

Why do republican retards just make shite up. Do you live in slogans? Do have a single working brain cell that is available to put out your own thought?

Its so bad, but Republicans can't even put anything better to replace it with after 15 years.

Oh, and it was initially a Republican plan, lol.

Now more magas are on it and will be hurt the most when the rates go up.

Just call it Trumpcare, let all states sign up for it and it will be the best Republican plan ever.
