Songwronger BS: So who's signed up for Obamacare? (599* d) RE: BS: So who's signed up for Obamacare? 01 Nov 13


Firth is your typical American "liberal." He only cares for others once he has his.

Here's an interesting new bit of information. Seems that not only did Obama and his people know that the 16+ million self-ensured Americans would get fucked out of their insurance (grandfather clauses not up to snuff), but also, a large segment of the 156 million who get employer-provided coverage will not be able to continue with their current plans:

Forbes: White House Predicted in 2010 That 93 Million Would Lose Their Health Plans under ObamaCare

....Section 1251 of the Affordable Care Act contains what's called a "grandfather" provision that, in theory, allows people to keep their existing plans if they like them. But subsequent regulations from the Obama administration interpreted that provision so narrowly as to prevent most plans from gaining this protection.

"The Departments' mid-range estimate is that 66 percent of small employer plans and 45 percent of large employer plans will relinquish their grandfather status by the end of 2013," wrote the administration on page 34552. All in all, more than half of employer-sponsored plans will lose their "grandfather status" and get canceled. According to the Congressional Budget Office, 156 million Americans—more than half the population—was covered by employer-sponsored insurance in 2013.

So let's go back to the video of Obama telling you over the past 3 years that "If you like your health plan, you can keep it." Just 24 examples of him saying that in the 1 1/2 minute clip. And each time he said that, he knew he was lying.
