I didn't realize the goal was to have people put a plan in their car and not pay for it....
Again, taking the numbers presented and analyzed from polling groups, a whopping 580k of those 6m are previously uninsured people who have paid their first premium.

Since all networks are supposedly like wings site. what is the fair and balanced network saying. There is NO SUCH network. People should not depend on ANY network to form their political beliefs. Do like what was tears. Search for unbiased reporting elsewhere . Not TV where all cable networks are sold out to the side they are patsies for.

Nancy Pelosi has already touted just that.

everything that comes out of this administration is a lie. This dog is four years old and they have spent 100's of million dollars begging people to sign up. How many have paid? No One can answer that question. they have changed this law 38 times to suit their political agenda. This law is a joke. Just like Obama. He lied his arse to us and got reelected, my insurance went up 55$ for a higher deductible and less insurance. At some point this dog will die. Massive Success in what way, 5million people lost their coverage and their saying 6 million signed up..bullshite.

Odd that I have over 4,500 active pt charts and less than 10 are enrolled in obamacare. And they got it free. I know of ZERO that are paying for it. Of course, enrolled just means you went through and picked a plan. Doesn't mean you paid the premium. Our BCBS rep said very, very few are paying the premiums.

Shocked, shocked I tell you! From the likes of Odrama, Reid, and Pelosi of course it would work.

I honestly know two for sure who are in favor of the idea of something along the lines of Ombacare. An oncologist/surgeon and a pediatrician. They support universal healthcare of some sort and, hell, probably wouldn't have a problem with some sort of system where everyone has something akin to Medicare. Where basics are covered and people can purchase supplements if they want them. They both have literally said that they're satisfied with their incomes and wouldn't be upset to make a little less if everyone had coverage.
I guess they're weird, huh?

Well, how many doctors do you know overall? I know only 4 personally and none of them like it.

Yes, they are weird, because, they are Leftists, and, all Leftists are weird . . . weird in the sense that they believe in an ideology that cannot work and has never worked.

Several, but I've only discussed the issue with three. The two I mentioned and one who doesn't even want to take insurance of any type (he's a psychiatrist for rich Uptown peeps so he just likes credit cards or checks . . . he's not a leftist
). As far as the two being "leftists", Champagne doesn't know shite about either of them. They're very bright, capable doctors and are very good people. They do really weird things, though. Like one of them likes to buy cool cars and the other one, get this, plays racquetball a lot. I mean they're fricking nuts, right?

Other than some dumbass academics that don't even see pt's, ZERO. And I'm making more money due to higher reimbursement with Obamacare, but I can see where it's headed if implemented unchanged. It does NOTHING to control costs. In fact, it will escalate costs. This will be shifted more and more onto the few Americans that work and pay federal income tax. Eventually we will see a system similar to Europe. Some form of single payer gov't system which will be shite and a separate private system that will be available only to those that afford it. Why is this never mentioned. Do people realize that all of Europe has a double standard in healthcare? Those that can afford better treatment get it. Those that can't end up in the inferior gov't system which often renders no treatment whatsoever.

Will bet they are academics or salaried docs that see very few pt's and envy those of us that make big money by busting arse.

You have to be a Leftist or very politically naive to be in favor of Obamacare.
So, perhaps he's not a Leftist. He could be a person who simply is not interested at all in anything other than taking care of his own personal business and that of his immediate family. Nothing wrong with that at all -- in fact, it's probably the smart move.
At this point in the history of Obamacare, the only people who are truly in favor of it are those who see it as a stepping stone to a United States National Health -- single payer.
These are the type of people who have no moral compass, because they believe that in order to achieve Single Payer, the current system must first be smashed, so that the US electorate suffers and then begs for a FedGov solution to suffering. That solution would be Single Payer.
