They are still figuring it out, but apparently in 2014 if you earn $50,000 your "TAX" will be $500!!! Then in 2015 it will "skyrocket"!!!!!! (What the hell do they call $500??) And that's ON TOP OF ANY TAXES YOU ALREADY PAY!!!!

Re: SCOTUS DECISION ON OBAMACARE IMMINENT....OBAMACARE LIVES!!!!
Can anyone answer a questions I have?

If someone chooses not to get health insurance, and pay the tax, which I assume gets paid to the government, yet this person goes to the ER who pays the ER? Does the governement reimburse the ER?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3461001


Yes the govt pays the expense just like it does in Medicaid now. They set the price, they/we/you pay via the govt which only has money it takes from us the taxpayers or prints.

If the set price isn't really enough to cover the real cost?...the hospital or whatever provider eats the difference or raises costs elsewhere to keep above water.

Ummm. Am I reading the opinion correctly in that they cannot force states to participate? Can't withhold Medicare payments, etc. if so, does this allow individuals residing in those states to "opt out" as well? Would they still be subject to the TAX?

Well...the actual decision is not posted yet. Seems it's still being digested, but so far the overall opinion of SCOTUS digestors is that Obamacare and the individual mandate have survived with some minor tweeking of semantics.

Fuckin Roberts screwed us....
 Quoting: SHR


Not actually. If they call the mandate a TAX and not a FINE then Obama has lied in saying that he would never TAX the middle class. NOW he has added about 1 trillion dollar tax to the middle class. Obama is going down.

Folks, in November we will vote for Obama or Not Obama. My first choice to solve this travesty is Ron Paul, but it is sadly apparent that he will not be on the ticket. They are even keeping his delegates from attending the Convention.

So, I will hold my nose and vote for "Not Obama"......
 Quoting: Eggcellent


Ron Paul would not use exectutive orders to even at least wound this monster...in fact the ruling from Roberts is very much a RP style opinion..."We can't do anything because they aren't violating an exact interpretation of the constitution as I see it."...so you live with it and we'll clarify the wording.

I remember getting the concept a while back that all this POS ACA would do is ultimately add 30 million people give or take to MEDICAID...it appears that is what has happened.

You either pay for a healthcare plan that the govt deems is sufficient or you pay a tax/fine and go on MEDICAID..that's the bottom line.

What will happen is a cluster fuck of epic proportions when every scammer cranks up the medicaid fruad which is already rampant and every ACORN retard with a copying machine begins the work of gathering the formally "disinfranchised" army to line up and get that healthcare/wellcare..blah blah blah and the entire system becomes a revolving door money machine the likes of which we have never seen on earth and certainly cannot afford.

If we wanted to create a near perfect Cloward/Piven text book super bomb?...I'd say it just happened...

So if my taxes pay for medicaid, and my insurance costs support hospitals. Does this mean healthcare/insurance will go up? I guess it's nice that we will have more people paying for it, but a mandatory tax sucks.

Also, I read that somethin like 25-30 million still won't be covered...but proverty in the US is like 40 million. So how will people considered to fall below the poverty like purchase HC? I know some people will be exempt. Won't they just have medicaid, which is what they had before?

Here is an idea.

All the Blackmarket money from guns, drugs, etc. that the Government makes goes into a Public Trust.

And can only be used for the Public Good.

Such as Infrastructure and Healthcare for everyone.
 Quoting: Open Your Eyes


Unfortunately it doesn't go into the Public trust at all but is retained to finance future black ops.

Can not bill you into bankrupcy.

Can't afford preiums will receive credit to help pay for it.

People who can afford HI will have to buy it. Because those who can afford it but go to the hospital means those of us with insurance have to pay for it.

Thus, provision that people can afford it must be responsible and buy insurance.

Just great. The size of Obama's government just increased by thousands and thousands of new bureaucrats and agencies.

Plus what about all the businesses with over 50 employees being forced to meet these requirements? Does this mean a business with 60 employees will have to lay off 10 people? How much of that will happen?

Here's a good explanation of the main facets of this bill (warning-it's from a blogger who is pro Obamacare but he offers a good outline of it):

What a freakin mess...talking heads saying the states could opt out...but if they do the feds could not pull their existing medicaid funds.

Fucking nightmare...
 Quoting: SHR


This is exactly what Obama is, a f***g nightmare. He is dragging every American into his nightmare.


Anyone remember the "feeling" of 911? That "feeling" that everything has just changed (for the worst).... and it all did by a large margin.

This news today feels much like that....


Well I hope you are really from Guam. That would explain some of your rant. Murder of 3k humans feels the same to you as helping 39 million humans with some health care??
How did you get so screwed up??


I don't want the government's nose in my healthcare, thankyouverymuch! I don't want to be told what to buy, when to buy it, or how to use it!


Well sorry, but you live in a Democratic Country.
Do you drive a car? you have to have insurance, don't you know? Do you think you will get old? Medicaid and Medicare are there for you, don't you know??
If you didn't have government in your health care you wouldn't be able to afford it, only the 1%, the rest of US just die from neglect. don't you know??

I'm already disabled! Why the hell do you think I'm against this PoS legislative nightmare????

I don't want anyone to suffer, but this ACA is NOT the answer. It will only make matters worse. Mark my word.


I like to stay with reality here. If we didn't have this, if it got voted down today we would be back to what we had, that would be the best that could happen.
This is a start,
all agree we could not stay the same as we were..
If we didn't do this, think about it, we wouldn't of done ONE thing for our health care system..
I'm a vet, I love my VA, really do. I think all Americans should be able to go to the doctor, VA model is a good one. And could take care of US all.
I don't like the government in everything, but I really think government has to be in health care. Or we would soon not be able to afford it..Because that is the way things work. Life is a big one, that the price could go up very fast, as life is something we would pay for. What ever the price we would pay if we could, for that....don't you know??


Good, let it go back to the way it was.
You guys keep confusing health care and health insurance, they are NOT one in the same.

before Obamacare, I did not need health insurance to acquire health care.
Health care is the service you receive from your practitioners, health insurance is a means of paying for and regulating what care you receive.

I agree that costs are high, and that is directly because the insurance industry shifted from true insurance to managed health care and is now in bed with big pharma.

THIS is not the answer.

Give the people OPTIONS, let me purchase and build my own policies like we used to before the big hiring boom of the 80's.

Before then, most companies did not offer insurance as a perk. We had bought major medical (true catastrophic insurance) and could buy similar plans for dental and eye care.

We budgeted for expected costs like eyeglasses and routine visits. We knew we needed them and paid for them out of pocket. Want to know why this is a good thing? Because now I am earning the interest on those funds and not some insurance company who I am now forced to pay a monthly premium to pay for things I may or may not need.

For those who are having a hard time finding funds to pay for medical care, we need to go back to the private sector.

There USED to be organizations that assisted with this. The churches, local communities, even the pickle jars at the mini marts.

Let US setup charities and assistance programs and allow people to make donations to the charities they wish to help and give us the tax deductions for doing so as an incentive.

A gvt managed health service is NOT the answer. When you remove the competition fro the market, the market goes to shit and costs an arm, a leg or maybe even your life.


We have all that you speak above in the privite sector right now? That is not near enough, very small compared to the problem. Only a government would have the resourses to all that needs done? That's just the way it is..
What we need is a government that can work to solve our problems. Until we have that we won't do anything right. If we get half right we are lucky these days...
