Obamacare: Higher Costs, Worse Healthcare, Endless Repeal Promise
By Vince Coyner

I started writing my blog in 2009, largely in response to America electing an anti-American president. During those first few years, I talked a lot about Obamacare. The thing was a disaster from day one; indeed, in an omen of things to come, Obama’s team spent four times more building a website that didn’t work than Apple did developing the iPhone.
 
The worst part about Obamacare? The fact that it was a solution to a problem that didn’t exist.

In 2013, I wrote the following:


Obamacare was passed in 2009 (sic) in reaction to anecdotal examples of Americans who couldn’t get healthcare. According to Gallop, in 2009 there were 50 million Americans who did not have health insurance. That represented approximately 16% of the population. Gallop also reported that of those without health insurance, fully 50% were satisfied with their healthcare. That means that fully 92% of the American population either had health insurance – 80% of whom were satisfied with that insurance – or were satisfied enough with their healthcare not to have insurance.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Let us never forget it was John Roberts who changed an unwinnable bill to Obamcare by changing the bill to a tax who is as responsible as any democrat for the disaster. :judge:

Let us never forget that it was Republicans who failed to return to court the day the 'tax' took effect and collect Roberts' deciding vote.

Republicans are just as guilty as Democrats.  They've had 14 years to repeal it.  Yet we still have it..
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

If ever there was a reason to repeal the filibuster rule in the Senate, it should be to abolish obamacare.

Pass a simple bill:
"The Affordable Care Act is hereby repealed in its entirety."

And let the chips fall where they may.
