Obama Announces Insured Can Keep Health Plans For One Year:
Posted by ObjectiveAnalyst 11 years, 5 months ago to Politics
I knew this was coming. It will be wonderful cover for the Democrats running for re-election. Politics drive everything... common sense nothing...
Foreseeable debacle... The Utopians never learn. Existence is not what it is. It is what they want it to be. What they seem to have learned from history, is that their predecessors must not have tried hard enough or thrown enough money at the problems. As if burning dollar bills could wrest the moon from the sky...

It's a scam meant to lull sheep into the slaughter pens... and the sheep follow along willingly... so they can then keep it ensconsed into the law.
In a year people will really be screwed, because, well, they were told they have a year, so now you HAVE to obey our mandates... Grrr...
Yes. They must keep the sheople ignorant long enough to get through the next election cycle, or make it look like those in trouble politically tried to fix it. You can see it now... "We tried to get that promise honored, but we just didn't have the votes or the power to reverse what the insurance companies did (never mind the fact that they did our bidding) vote us back in; we'll fix it down the road with more subsidies so it won't hurt you." says the dozen or so Democrats in trouble....
Ultimately the whole thing is likely to implode. The question is time... Of course this is mathematically and systematically, not politically. It is just preposterous that so many have to jump through hoops and now risk lack of insurance when they previously had what they were satisfied with...
I fear that if enough cover is created for the Dem's in power to retain it long enough, the masses will give up and submit until the failures move the ball toward their ultimate goal... single payer...
Grrr... indeed!

If only people who voted for O-Bomb-Ya! were to suffer, there would be NO REASON to reverse Obamacare. Let them reap what they've sown.
It is the willingness of the Demoncrats and Obama to hurt innocents that makes them despicable.
I hear you. This economy has forced me to put my business in standby mode for a while. We are operating with a skeleton crew. I am on strike, so to speak, regardless of my desires. My insurance has gone through the roof, though I haven't received a cancellation notice yet.
I would like to say this is some kind of joke... but it isn't funny.
O.A.
With this administration there is a plethora of questions and sophistry for answers.
So much for transparency...
Thank you for your input.
O.A.
1) Does he have the Constitutional authority to change the law as signed into effect? Ans NO
2) Will Congress again turn a blind eye to this illegal behavior.
3) Will the states allow the changes to be enacted
4) Will the Insurance co's after months of preparation getting ready for this change?
5) Can the Insurance Co's get the changes made in time?
6) What impact will these reversals have on the premiums?
7) What will the impact of managing 2 risk pools have on the program
8) All of this for only a few months of relief Hmm is it only POLITICAL
9) Will the voting public forgive & forget?
10) This program rolled out as planned all was known ahead of time and BHO LIED LIED LIED What the Administration did was grossly underestimate the negative reaction
Maybe finally Bye Bye BHO
I appreciate your candor.
As a strategy, ripping off that band-aid quickly and showing it for what it is sooner rather than later, has much merit. It is just a shame that innocents who didn't even support this monstrosity must suffer in the mean.
Respectfully,

Having turned a deaf ear to the idea of delay, Demoncrats now want to delay it for the political expediency of Demoncrats who face the torches and pitchforks of voters who are being run over by Obamacare. If the Republicans are at all adroit in their handling of this situation, they should be able to hang the policy cancellation debacle, the utter incompetence and failure of the web site, the ridiculously low success rate of sign ups, the skyrocketing premiums AND the government shutdown on the Demoncrats (where blame properly belongs). The Republicans can say in all honesty that they went so far as to "shut down" the government in an effort to save the People from Obamacare - and the Demoncrats would not let them. Now the Demoncrats want to fool the American People by delaying the execution date by a year - so they can slip past the 2014 elections.
A President can NOT change any aspect of a law unilaterally.
