Thread Name: BS: So who's signed up for Obamacare?
Subject: RE: BS: So who's signed up for Obamacare?
there is no such thing as Obamacare... the Affordable Care Act is the end result of TeaParty/Republican obstruction and Democrats hedging around a plan that was the legacy of Mitt Romney before he ran for president - and lost. There is plenty wrong with the Act... but there was even more wrong with the existing system that has been a gravy train for the insurance industry and lawyers for decades.

If you already have health insurance through your employer or are in the Medicare system... there is nothing for you to do, except maybe cross your fingers & hope Congress doesn't figure out a new way to screw you.

How about we start a new thread to brainstorm what may or may not be the best way to handle health care in one of the richest nations in the world that still has millions of its citizens out in the cold, so to speak, unable to afford health care insurance or medical expenses that arise.
