This is just a poll to see how many people are actually benefiting with Obamacare.

Benefitting somewhat

Worse off than without Obamacare. Old coverage provided more for the same price.

After having such a pleasant day at the office and answering a variety of sophisticated and insightful questions, I just wanted to come here and express my gratitude in a thread that I just remembered existed today:

Spoiler (mouse over to view)
NO, THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT WAS NEVER DESIGNED TO "HELP" THE PUBLIC!!! That isn't how it is written, that was never it's purposely, and stop shouting at me over the phone that you're experiencing nothing but problems over a law that YOU believed was going to help people but was never actually designed TO do that. The SOLE purpose of the AFA is to entice the public to enroll in government controlled private health care by taxing anyone and everyone who is not enrolled in the plan. THAT IS IT, NOTHING MORE. Stop complaining about how your tax credits and premium were adjusted to reflect the income you make BEFORE taxes. That is the way the law was written, and you voted TWICE to make sure that this law went into the books. Stop complaining about your kid or yourself being automatically enrolled into Medicaid instead of being under your plan. THAT IS THE LAW. Stop complaining to us about being dropped from Medicaid because your income is $50 UNDER the limit. That issue is entirely on Medicaid's end, has NOTHING to do with me, and you need to READ THE DAMN LETTER to call the right people who can actually "HELP" you instead of complaining about how you're being bounced call centers because you never bothered to READ THE DAMN LETTER.

In fact, ACTUALLY READ EVERY SINGLE DAMN THING that you guys are voting for. It would solve majority of my problems because then I wouldn't have to deal with people complaining about law that they WANTED. I'm SORRY to hear about the fact that your kid cannot get his medication because you were "never" informed that he went on Medicaid and missed the intial payment, I'm SORRY about the fact that you missed cancer treatments because your premium was increased to reflect the "correct" income, I'm SORRY about the fact that you cancelled your coverage literally a month prior to literally sawing off your hand and then whining about how we cannot give you coverage that YOU CANCELLED IT (Go to the emergency room, they are require, by law, to help you regardless of any and all circumstances).

YOU PEOPLE ASKED FOR THIS AND THEN BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE ABOUT HOW TERRIBLE OF A SYSTEM IT IS WHEN EVERYONE ELSE WAS TELLING YOU HOW TERRIBLE IT WAS EVER SINCE IT WAS A GLIMMER IN SOMEONE'S EYE!!!

Right now, I'm conflicted over whether I should laugh that people are getting exactly what they wanted, or cry about the fact that very few are actually going to learn anything from this experience.


Ah, I hope this inspired some people. What a positive world we live in.
