Like I said, money will be an issue. Libtards can't understand this Until they THEYare affected.
Unlike Republicans who don't care about anyone else and how they are affected? My quote option isn't coming up
The thing is Simon that it is actually Blue states that pay more in tax dollars and Red states that recieve more in benefits. So essentially I am helping to support Minimus

Except that it's bogus. It's one of those mass Emails that was going around during the health care debates (2009?). There is no "United Nations International Health Organization".
Oooops, should have hit submit before getting my coffee!

It will take time to perfect any new, large system. What is not going to help anyone is trying to repeal reform before it's even had a chance to change anything and trying to shoot the economy in the knee caps as a form of retribution

trying to sound wise.
Well, ok. Certainly not something we could accuse you of.

I cringe when I see people up in arms about forcing corporations to pay their "fair share", whatever the hell that means. Take an economics class people. Corporations are simply entities made up of people. The corporation doesn't have a brain, its a collective of a dozen or a hundred or a hundred thousand people. Customers in the end pay the taxes 100% of the time, not corporations.
Actually, I am asking how many Economics classes you have taken. You did, after all, admonish the rest of us to do so.

I would also like to see some supporting information for Marvin's claims
Things I've learned:
- "Affordable" under the ACA is defined so that what many companies have historically offered employees as a benefit is, by comparison, very generous. The exchanges set up by the Federal government is a place employers can send employees to show how generous previous plans have been. But that was then. Now we have the ACA. Based on "affordable" under the ACA I predict a lot of companies will change the benefit they offer employees so that more of the cost is shifted to the employee and away from the employer.
- Though businesses offering health care insurance must offer dependent coverage, there is no requirement to make this coverage "affordable" by a company offer to cover part of the premium costs. When employees go to the health care exchange they'll get sticker shock at what the premium is going to cost them. Employers can offer very little in the way cost-sharing for dependent coverage and make it less costly than the exchange, which will steer employees back to the company's plan. Bottom line is that employees will be paying a lot more for dependent coverage.
- Based on how the ACA treats smoking and smokers, it will become much, much easier for companies to shift premium costs to employees who are smokers. Smokers better gird up their loins. They're about to meet Mr. Premium in ways they never did before. Alternately, smokers can successfully complete a cessation program. I'm sure that'll work. Right?

He's being facetious.
Shhhh, I know

He is right. The point he's making is that, once people get "hooked" on government handouts it's almost impossible to take those handouts away, no matter how much sense it makes to do so. Politicians are hooked on "pork barrel" projects, another classic example of taking money/benefits as long as it's free to them while someone else pays the bill.
Exactly. As I said. People don't usually get "hooked" on something that doesn't taste/feel good. In this case affordable health care. My gosh what a bunch of losers, those working poor wanting to live and all.
The Pork Barrel argument is just plain silly. It's nothing more than campaign rhetoric.
