  • How on Earth can a mandated purchase of an insurance policy from a private company be deemed a tax? The next step, people, will be the ballot box.

    Obama Care cannot be affordable. We need to do the fundamental things first: 1) Cut the fraud, 2) Reform the laws to limit frivolous law suits.

    With Obama Care, watch out for small employers to cut jobs, and/or cut medical benefits. Bottom line: Get ready for the largest tax increase in history. For all of you Obama voters: You made us ALL su More..

  • So in short,those that don't have the health insurance because they cant afford it will be subjected to a fine that they probably cant afford either.


    Nice speech Mr. Rubio

      No its based on income. The very poor are not subject to the fine.

      One aspect I like is now if you change jobs you can take the insurance with you.

      Maybe more people will leave their jobs with HC and start their own business.

    • @gonehuntin just another assault by this ridiculous administration against the middle class. Its more of his take from the middle class and give to the lower class in order to gain their votes. This obamacare bs is absolute foolishness

      Define "very poor" And how is it that anyone above a certain income shuld be subjected to the fine as if they are a criminal? Thats typically what a fine is imposed upon is someone that has broken a written law. Oh yeah thats right, Obama made it law I forgot. Next it will be a fine for home schooling a child rather than putting them in the "government run" schools of which Im damn near ashamed to say my children are in. I can say that I have outstanding insurance cu More..

      I had a link to the cost but can't find it now. Here is the "thing" that gripes my ass about republicans now is all the bitching about healthcare is the fact that we "all" are paying for people that don't have it now and have been for years.

      Doing nothing has been the gop response and frankly I'm sick of that.

      Perhaps now more people will leave their jobs and start new business because they can take the healthcare with them.

      I can't really remember the last More..

      I dont see people leaving what jobs they have to start a business of their own simply to get insurance and I can assure you that I as a "conservative moderate"if thats such a term, couldnt agree more about myself footing the bill for those that dont have insurance,but as you said the fine doesnt apply to the very poor,so if they they dont pay their medical bills as they are now and are excluded form the fines then what reason would they have for buying insurance simply becaus More..

    He would definitely make a good VP.

  • What you need to know about the CURRENT health care system:

    1. A large proportion of Americans have health conditions that insurance companies can qualify as “pre-existing conditions.” A pre-existing condition is a medical condition that existed before someone applies for or enrolls in a new health insurance policy. It can be something as prevalent as heart disease – which affects one in three adults – or something as life-changing as cancer, which affects 11 million Americans. But a pr More..

      Your last three paragraphs are all they had to do.... regulate insurance companies. Not penalize or fine citizens or small businesses.

    • @seangail Think carefully about your responses. These are things you need to know regarding the CURRENT healthcare system we have, not the ACA/Obamacare. The CURRENT healthcare system is absolutely apalling. You have to see the whole picture before making irrational comments about the new healthcare system. The new healthcare system will eliminate these things above. The good far outweighs the bad when comparing both systems. It's all about individual responsibility.

    • @Apples01
      Citizens and small businesses are already being penalized for having to deal with the CURRENT healthcare system as it is right now.

      Because the CURRENT healthcare system is so apalling, it has allowed so many citizens to be taken advantage of by medical institutions, insurance companies and small businesses, that they end up in litigation and these places are then subsequently fined anyways for their practices...all because of the CURRENT healthcare system we have.

      The new system el More..

  • Here's the truth about Obamacare and what it means to you:

    The Affordable Care Act reduces numerous financial barriers to care, by requiring coverage despite pre-existing conditions, eliminating annual and lifetime limits on benefits, and eliminating cost sharing for preventive services. It recognizes the value of primary care by bringing Medicaid payment for primary care services to Medicare levels.

    The Supreme Court decision maintains already-launched initiatives that support wider implement More..

  • Rubio hit the nail on the head about Obamacare and it is the reality we face here in Massachusetts... To the T it is like this here in Taxachusetts... My policy lapsed last year for 3 months and guess what? They fined me $400 during tax time... They charged me almost what it would cost if i kept my policy from lapsing.
