Mikey From NY - The only people hurt by this, are the people who complain and do'n' actually look at what it offers.  Great Mikey From NY since you are at NY you go explain to the "Working Poor" of NYC that previously could NOT afford to buy Insurance why the NYC Health Care Plan was Eliminated (read the whole thing below)(note: do not even tell me bullsh!t "Tax Credits" people living from pay day to pay day cannot survive long enough for Obamacare "Tax Credits":  ************************THE BIGGEST $2.5 TRILLION SCAM IN HISTORY******************  By US Law, President Obama's ACAgiving the Insurance Corporations$67 Billion, Medical Device Corporations$23 Billion, Pharmaceuticals Corporations$20 Billion*, so that President Obama could get Billions USDsof Unlimited Corporate Campaign Contributions from them.  *PBS Documentary "Obama's Deal" stated $80 Billion, not $20 Billion:  negotiated a secret $80 billion deal with Billy Tauzin, the former Louisiana congressman who had become the pharmaceutical industry's top lobbyist.  'YOU LIE" Congressman Joe Wilson after Republicans were locked out of US Congress Health Care Reform Committees, the Speaker of the House, Vice President Biden, President Obama LIE "Bipartisan".  President Obama gave his Demand (President's Proposal, that you know NOTHING About) to the Democratic Party Controlled US Senate and Democratic Party Controlled US House of Representatives.  President Obama starts his LIES, "My Health Care Reform Will Not Cost A Single Dime", "My Health Care Reform Will Pay For It's Self". To hide President Obama's LIES, the Democratic Party Controlled US Congress refused to create a US Budget Bill that included President Obama's $2.5 Trillion ($4 Trillion) ACA; and created Continuing Resolutions (CRs) that also did not include the cost of President Obama's ACA.  To attempt to find the $2.5 Trillion President Obama as Commander In Chief has been Ordering (No US Congressional Approval Required) since April 2009 the US Military Budget Cut while the US Military was engaged in Two Wars and President Obama's Secret Wars; RESULTING IN THE UNNECESSARY DEATHS OF US CITIZENS OF THE US MILITARY.  President Obama as Commander In Chief Ordered a Reduction In Forces of 90,000 US Military to be thrown on Unemployment, and 108, 000 US DOD Civilians Unemployed. The 1% of US Citizens of the US Military Stuck with more Deployments and Longer Tours while 92% of US Citizens NEVER Served; President Obama institutes the President Obama Stop Loss, the US Military is NO Longer "Voluntary" but is Involuntary Servitude (Slavery). RESULTING IN THE UNNECESSARY DEATHS OF US CITIZENS OF THE US MILITARY.  In Protest Secretary of Defense Gates tendered his Letter of Resignataion.  HINT Dumbarse: You cut the US Military, US Defense AFTER all US Military are back Stateside.  President Obama as Commander In Chief Ordered the US Military Butchedby over 50%, thrown on Unemployment, no US Military benefits, no VA medical. The known consequence being that over 50% of the almost hundred million US Civilians employed directly and indirectly by the Labor Intensive US Military Defense Industrial Complex are no longer needed, to be thrown on unemployment. RESULTING IN THE UNNECESSARY DEATHS OF US CITIZENS OF THE US MILITARY.  President Obama as Commander In Chief Ordered the US Defense Budget Cut by 12%, US Military Budget Chopped again. In response Secretary of Defense Penettastated, "A 10% (US) Defense Budget Cut Will Result In A Million (US) Civilians Becoming Unemployed". RESULTING IN THE UNNECESSARY DEATHS OF US CITIZENS OF THE US MILITARY.  In Protest Secretary of Defense Penetta tendered his Letter of Resignation "The time has come for me to return home to my wife Sylvia, our three sons, their families, our six grandchildren, and my walnut farm -- dealing with a different set of nuts,"  That's Correct Penetta called President Obama a NUT to his face (President Obama standing right next to him at the White House).  In his attempts to find the $2.5 Trillion ($4 Trillion) for his ACA in July 2011 President Obama gave his Demand to US Senator Harry Reid for "Across the Board Budget Cuts" to all previously budgeted for Programs (like Medicare, Social Security, Food Stamps, WIC, etc.), Projects (US Infrastructure, etc.), Agencies (Veteran's Affairs, FEMA*, Department of Education, etc.); including cutting the US Citizen's Benefits and Entitlements of the "47%" (2012 49%, 2013 51%).  *Reason FEMA did not have Disaster Relief Funds after 2012 Hurricane Sandy, as previously chopped by President Obama, and had to be reinstated by US Congress.  And the biggest part of the scam, the ignorant still believe that Insurance Corporations equal the Medical Profession (Health Care). Elimination of the Insurance Corporations from the Medical Profession will decrease the costs of Medical Treatments (Health Care) by a minimum of 80%.  President Obama KNEW that the Insurance Corporationswere Scamming (Felony Criminal Fraud) the US Citizens; and still President Obama REWARDED the Insurance Corporationswith $67 Billion of US Citizen's Money as Increased Taxes and Decreased US Citizen's Benefits and Entitlements; just so that President Obama could get Unlimited Corporate Campaign Contributionsfrom the Insurance Corporations, Medical Device Corporations, Pharmaceutical Corporations:  President Obama, Face the Nation, September 20, 2009:  "Obama: No, the difference is that they're making huge profits on it, Bob. I mean, let's take the Medicare HMO programs that are being run by insurance companies. It's estimated by everybody that they're overcharging by about 14 percent. This amounts to about $177 billion over 10 years. About $17 billion a year, $18 billion a year. That's just going to pad their profits, hasn't been shown to make Medicare recipients any healthier. And in fact because those huge subsidies are going to insurance companies, Medicare recipients are not getting a good deal. Now if we are enforcing what should be the rules around Medicare and making sure the people are getting a bang for the buck, it's not going to be possible for insurance companies to simply pass on those costs to Medicare recipients because ultimately it's Uncle Sam that's paying for those services anyway. "  "Uncle Sam" is ALL US Citizens Paying as Increased Taxes, and Decreased US Citizen's Benefits and Entitlements.  Before US Military Health Care was Managed by the US Office of the Surgeon General (A US Military Officer), and the US Military Medical Service Corps; later on the Insurance CorporationsBribed (Lobbied) the US Politicians to get into the US Military Health Care to make more Insurance Corporation Profits, as TriCare INSURANCE, deducted involuntarily from US Servicememberspay. What was a "Benefit" (Free part of the Job) before became a Payroll Deduction. Elimination of the Insurance Corporations from the Medical Profession will decrease the costs of Medical Treatments (Health Care) by a minimum of 80%.  (When) During the 2008-2009 Presidential Elections, (Who, Whom) Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton Filed Against Presidential Candidate Obama's Violations of US Law, McCain FeingoldBipartisan Campaign Reform Act. (How Much, How Many) Presidential Candidate Obama did not care, and gladly paid the $200,000 Fines (repeated Violations) while getting Billions USDsof Unlimited Corporate Campaign Contributions; President Obama still does this TODAY.  (Why, Motive(s)) Candidate Obama needed the Unlimited Corporate Campaign Contributionsto Fund his Nationwide Campaign Offices (Where) that Cost Billions USDsper year (How Much); after becoming US President, President Obama still needed his Nationwide Campaign Offices of Billions USDsper year to maintain "Brand Name Recognition" for 2012-2013 Reelection. example: State of Ohio, President Obama already had 104 President Obama Reelection Offices prior to the start of his Presidential Reelection Campaigns. Presidential Candidate Romney only had 40 Campaign Offices.  After being Reelected President Obama still needed his Nationwide Campaign Offices at a cost of Billionsper year; as renamed the President Obama Political Action Committee Offices to "Push the President Obama Agendas" lots of Paid President Obama Supporters posting Propaganda (opinions, Not Facts) (just like ACORN, and other President Obama Super PACS); this is the "President Obama Political Machine" that President Obama will turn over to Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton.  Now do you see why President Obama sold out the US Citizens to the Insurance Corporations, Medical Device Corporations, Pharmaceuticals Corporations, etc..  Before you even post a response research the above first.  President Obama's $2.5 Trillion ACA will eliminate the New York City Health Care Programs that proved that;  a. Getting the Insurance Corporations OUT of the Medical Profession decreases Medical Treatment Costs (Actual Health Care) by a minimum of 80%.  b. President Obama's $2.5 Trillion will impact those that can least afford to buy Insurance NOT actual Health Care (Medical Treatments).  c. CBS News Article: Sorry, Politicians' Dance Cards Are Full  CBS News Video: The Price Tag Of Politics  d. Corrupt President Obama's Closed Door White House Meetings:  Article: Unlikely ally of health care reform: business Insurers, drug companies came on board early and may profit from it  Video: PBS Documentary "Obama's Deal"  The New York City Program:  About the New York City Program, that reduced costs of Medical Treatments by a minimum of 80%. This New York City Program is exactly what Longtime proponent of Health Care Reform, Senator Kennedy, kept attempting; as identical to what President FDR Successfully implemented prior to World War II as the President FDR Universal Health Care for All US Citizens, by eliminating the Insurance Corporationsfrom the Medical Profession. This President FDR Universal Health Care for All US Citizens is the same program that US Congress gets for $50 for Unlimited Medical Treatments (Zero $ Deductables).  President Obama's $2.5 Trillion ACA will eliminate the New York City Program; and get the GREEDY Insurance Corporations back into that New York City Program with the Costs of Medical Treatments going UP by at least 80% actually more when Deductables are included.  The New York City Program was originally created by New York City's Medical Profession battling the Insurance Corporations for those at New York City that could not afford any Health Care, and had to choose between Food, Rent, etc. or Medical Treatments; like the "Working Poor". As previously, when the Insurance Corporations were involved a Patient would pay $100 and get $20 worth of Medical Treatments, the $80 being PROFITS for the Insurance Corporations. After eliminating the Insurance Corporations from the Medical Profession, the Patient paid $100 and got $80-$90 worth of Medical Treatments.  The Insurance Corporations were/are "the Death Panels", a bunch of bureaucrats (Not Medical Professionals) that determine which approved Medical Treatments the Medical Professionals are allowed to do from the Insurance Corporations approved Lists. The Insurance Corporations usually approving ONLY the cheapest most adverse side effects (life threatening) Medical Treatments while charging as much as possible to make the most Profits for the Insurance Corporations. Those Medical Professionals that refuse to do as the Insurance Corporations dictate, are subject to increased Medical Malpractice Insurance Premiums (High Risk Category); if the Medical Professional continue to disobey the Insurance Corporations, the Insurance Corporations drop the Medical Professionals from their Medical Malpractice Insurance, those Medical Professionals can no longer Practice Medicine.  It is from the Insurance CorporationsApproved Treatment Lists that the Medical Billing Clerks must charge the Costs Listed by the Insurance Corporations for Medical Treatments, like $5.00 for a single asprin. Take a rough guess who gets the $4.70 profits from the $5.00 single asprin (hint: It is not the Medical Professionals, paid $0.20).  Waivered (exempt from ACA) IRS ACATax Regulations:  US Labor Union Members (Including many of the States and Federal Government Employees Unions).  All other US Citizens end up sucking wind paying Mandatory Campaign Contributions to President Obama, by buying Insurance Corporations Insurance NOT actual Health Care (Medical Treatments) from Medical Professionals. The Insurance Corporations got $67 Billion US Citizens Money (Taxes, US Citizen's Money) as well as paid by Decreased US Citizen's Benefits and Entitlements by Law of President Obama's ACA; the ACA then giving even MORE to the Insurance Corporations with Mandatory Purchases of INSURANCE.  President Obama - "Consider this a Bailout of the Insurance Industry".  The Exemption Motives: The US Politicians still receive the President FDR Universal Health Care For All US Citizens (Great Depression (1929-1939) to ArmisticeKorean War (1953) that All US Citizens used to have until the Insurance Corporations Lobbied (Bribed) US Politicans to get into the Medical Profession to make more Profits; President FDR's Universal Health Care was done by Eliminating the Insurance Corporations from the Medical Profession (Real Health Care), currently the Exempt US Politicians pay $50 per month to get Unlimited Health Care (Medical Treatments) including "House Calls". This is what Democrat Senator Kennedy the Longtime Advocate of Health Care Reform wanted a Modernized version of President FDR's Universal Health Care For All US Citizens; with the President Obama Supporters shouting him down and fighting him in US Congress demanding implementation of President Obama's President's Proposal (Health Care Reform Demand, that was nothing like Massachusetts "Romneycare" nor what Senator Kennedy of Massachusetts wanted) to US Congress as creating US Law, ACA.  The President Obama ACA wipes out the New York City Programs that proved that Actual Health Care Costs decrease by a minimum of 80%; by getting the Insurance Corporations OUT of the Medical Profession, just like President FDR's Universal Health Care For All US Citizens also did by getting the Insurance Corporations (NOT Health Care) OUT of the Medical Profession (Real Health Care).  What MUST be done by Parents is to KICK their "Adult" CHILDREN (age 21-26) out of the Nest. What President Obama's ACA states is that anyone under the age of 26 is no longer a Competent Adult and must no longer be allowed to Vote, by stating by President Obama's ACA US Law that "Adults" below the age of 26 can be included in their Parents Insurance. The New Minimum Age of being Adult is no longer age 21; and is age 26.  Before anyone makes an ignorant comment; Go research the Definitions of "Implicit Law", "Implications of Law". If you do not believe that look at what Democrat NYC is doing.  How about being a hypocrite of the "99%" screaming, protesting, demonstrating against the GREEDY Corporations; while endorsing President Obama's GREEDY Corporations (Insurance Corporations).  Some say that the Cost of President Obama's buy Insurance Scam is $4 Trillion; however, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), and Government Accounting Office (GAO) stated $2.5 Trillion NOT President Obama's "My Health Care will not cost a single dime", "My Health Care will pay for it's self".  That $2.5 Trillion ($4 Trillion) for President Obama's Scam had to come from somewhere. The typical Democrats HATERS (Actions not "empty words" of President Obama) hatred of the US Constitution's stated US Defense, US Military, US Intelligence is just like what President Clinton did before that left the US Blind and Deaf to the Events leading up to the 9/11 2001 Attacks according to the Bipartisan 9/11 Commission Investigations, Findings, and Recommendations; READ ALL of these:  Update 10022013 (October 02, 2013):  PONZI SCAM: "The administration says it needs 2.7 million young and healthy people to sign up to cover the cost of treating the sick."  Therefore to Meet Dictator Obama's Dictated MUST Buy Insurance Ponzi Scam Goal Parents MUST kick their Young and Healthy "Adult" Children OUT of the House, and their "Adult" Children must Buy their Own Insurance (Obama's gambling with your money that the Young and Healthy will never use the Insurance they bought).  Update 10142013 (October 14, 2013):  President Obama as Commander In Chief Ordered (No US Congressional Approval Required) 70,000 more US Military to be thrown on Unemployment. State's National Guard and Reserves Butchered also.  Update 10212013 (October 21, 2013):  PONZI SCAM: "It is estimated that 7 Million Healthy MUST Sign up for Insurance and Never use the Insurance, to pay for those that are sick."  Update 10262013 (October 26, 2013):  Sure trust that the US Government will not turn over Personal Information to other US Government Agencies ("Information Sharing" required by US Policy):  Health info won't be used to enforce immigration law  And you dumbarses that did not READ the other Thousands of Pages of the President Obama IRS ACATax Regulation, EPIC FAIL to understand the basics of the MINIMUM Fine (Penalty) is $95; the IRS Authorized typical IRS Actions of Felony Criminal Tax Evasion (Imprisonment); Confiscation of Property(ies); Full and Complete Access to all Personal Information (added Medical, Dental, Vision); Freezing of all Financial; Wage Garnishments; etc..  Update 10202013 (October 20, 2013):  And the ignorant want to trust THESE SAME GREEDY INCOMPETENT INSURANCE CORPORATIONS WITH THEIR LIVES (Health Care):  For some Sandy victims, insurance falls short  Update: 11042013 (November 04, 2013) Chief of Staff of the Army General Odiero, "STOP BLEEDING MY ARMY" as President Obama as Commander In Chief Ordered Reduction In Forces of the US Military.  Update: 11112013 (November 11, 2013) Chief of Staff of the Army General Odiero on Letterman Show, "150,000 to be transitioned out of the Army" translation 150,000 to be thrown on Unemployment.
