12 Incredible Quotes about Obamacare that all should read!

I believe these quotes should be read by all. I work in the Insurance Industry and these ring completely true. I believe this goes with the post the other day of another Insurance worker that was claiming the insurance companies our broker and this is trying to delay the inevitable. The baby boomer generation money is all gone, if anyone read that thread these quotes will definitely make more sense.

Many state public exchanges opened yesterday with almost no idea of what is really going on....more of we promised this date so we had no choice type deal... many big broker houses are creating their own private exchanges to keep clients in house because if they don't they will go under as well. This will be one huge snowball of an avalanche and yesterday we shot the side of the mountain.

Good luck everyone. My benefits were just reduced by half and my premium was doubled, but i'm only a single....family coverage tripled from last year at my company. I don't think anyone is truly prepared for this, definitely not our states.


#1 Donald Trump

Let me get this straight . . .

We’re going to be “gifted” with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don’t! Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn’t understand it, passed by a Congress that didn’t read it but exempted themselves from it, and signed by a Dumbo President who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn’t pay his taxes, for which we’ll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect, by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese , and financed by a country that’s broke!!!!!

‘What the hell could possibly go wrong?’

#2 Senior Wall Street Journal Economics Writer Stephen Moore during an interview with Fox and Friends….

“Again, whatever you want to call it Alisyn, fines, taxes, penalties, but three quarters of those costs will fall on the backs of families who make less than $120,00 a year, so it’s a big punch in the stomach to middle class families.”

#3 Dr. Elaina George of the Project 21 African-American Conservative Leadership Network

“Because of the mandate, Americans will be forced to pay for a system that will increase costs for patients, remove health care decisions from both the doctor and the patient and lead to rationing. It changes health care as we know it into a system based on one-size-fits-all, cost-controlled and conveyor belt socialized medicine”

#4 The incomparable Charlie Daniels

“The United States of America took a giant step toward a totalitarian socialist government when the Supreme Court voted to uphold Obamacare, allowing the individual mandate for the government to force American citizens to buy health insurance whether they want to or not.”

#5 Ron Paul

“This is patently obvious: the power to ‘regulate’ commerce cannot include the power to compel commerce! Those who claim otherwise simply ignore the plain meaning of the Constitution because they don’t want to limit federal power in any way. The commerce clause was intended simply to give Congress the power to regulate foreign trade, and also to prevent states from imposing tariffs on interstate goods. In Federalist Paper No. 22, Alexander Hamilton makes it clear the simple intent behind the clause was to prevent states from placing tolls or tariffs on goods as they passed through each state — a practice that had proven particularly destructive across the many principalities of the German empire.”

#6 U.S. Representative Todd Akin

“Today America is threatened with a stage three cancer of socialism, and Obamacare is exhibit 1. There are many of us here who have been fighting this for three years and we don’t really want the compassion of the IRS and the efficiency of the post office introduced in our healthcare and we are not going to rest until every single line of this bill is repealed.”

#7 The Health Ranger Mike Adams

“But even if Obama is replaced in the White House, the damage has already been done. With its decision, the U.S. Supreme Court has set a precedent of government control over private paychecks, and that precedent has fundamentally crushed economic freedom in America and opened the door to limitless taxes for everything imaginable. King George III couldn’t have done it better.”

#8 Documentary Filmmaker Michael Moore

“You better get on the train or watch your party implode – that’s my words of advice to the Republican Party”

#9 The communications director of the Tenth Amendment Center Mike Maharrey

“The states simply need to follow Thomas Jefferson’s prescription and nullify the entire act. They should just refuse to implement this monstrosity. Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker has already indicated he will refuse, and other states should follow his lead.”

#10 Becky Ayers

I’ve never bought medical insurance. The only time a policy has covered me was when it came incidental to a job. The Lord has blessed me with disgustingly good health; then, too, when I was 18, my mother died of a brain tumor that had escaped diagnosis for six years despite excruciating headaches and other symptoms a professor of nursing later described as “classic.” If I were bleeding and unconscious, I might wind up in the clutches of the medical establishment, but never of my own volition.

So I deeply and personally resent Roberts’s little parlor-trick of a word-game. Forcing me to buy medical insurance is unconstitutional if we call it a “fine” but perfectly OK if it’s a “tax.”

#11 Byron Maduska in the Leavenworth Times….

“A new survey of Doctors has been released. The results are bleak.

If Obamacare is fully implemented, 83 percent will consider leaving the practice of medicine. Sixty-one percent say it’s an affront to their ethics. Eighty-five percent say it destroys the doctor-patient relationship. Sixty-five percent say governmental involvement is the cause of the problems in medical care now. Seventy-two percent say the insurance mandate won’t result in improved access to medical care. Seventy-four percent say they’ll stop accepting Medicare patients, or leave Medicare altogether. Seventy percent say reducing governmental involvement would be the single best fix for healthcare in this country. The negatives of Obamacare went on and on in the results of the survey.”

#12 Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli

“This decision goes against the very principle that America has a federal government of limited powers; a principle that the Founding Fathers clearly wrote into the Constitution, the supreme law of the land. The Constitution was meant to restrict the power of government precisely for the purpose of protecting your liberty and mine from the overreaching hand of the federal government. This unprecedented decision says that Congress has the authority to force citizens to buy private goods or face fines – a power it has never had in American history, and a power King George III and Parliament didn’t have over us when we were mere subjects of Great Britain. Since the federal government itself could never articulate to the court a constitutional limit to this power, Congress has gained an unlimited power to force citizens to buy anything.”

So what do you think Obamacare is going to do to the healthcare system in America

The Affordable Tax Act will essentially destroy what shambles are left of the health care industry.

The people all know it, CONgress knows it(which explains their exemption) and the POTUS knows it. This is outright money laundering from the middle class to the corporations that have bought and paid for CONgress in its entirety. It's time the people start screaming because apparently talking about it has null effects.

Well said, it truly is time for change, somehow we the people need to make it happen.

Nice collection of comments, it speaks to the disconnectedness of those who still think the ACA is somehow a good thing.

How to repeal Obamacare. In one easy lesson.

I'd have to say Donald Trump sums it up quite well. I laughed, not because it was funny, because it is the truth. How in the hell did America get here?

Here's an Idea, make the money guidelines for Medicaid higher and raise sales tax. I know, I'm about to get some real good coverage through my work, Thank heavens, I don't want Obama care. And the gov't says we have a real terror threat..... IT'S THEM!!!!!

number 12-- "This unprecedented decision says that Congress has the authority to force citizens to buy private goods or face fines"..


What about mandatory car insurance? that is just as bad in theory.

What if the congress took the Obamacare Zeal and focused on the IRS itself?

edit on 2-10-2013 by thepolish1 because: Looked into fines for obamacare

Donald Trump declared bankruptcy four times...he knows how to manage money about as well as a dead whale shark. Funny, people think he is intelligent still to this day. He has no room to talk about borrowing millions. He's probably knee deep in hookers and scotch right now, but he will make sure that you know "Obamacare" isn't solvent.

Car insurance is not mandatory, you can choose to not operate a motor vehicle on public roads.

Obamacare makes it a crime; makes it illegal to simply exist.

Because you exist, you are forced by penalty of law to buy a product or pay a 'fine' (tax)... this how powerful a majority of useful simpletons have demanded our government be.

Aided and abetted by particular agenda-driven forces in popular culture and the alleged 'news' media.

If you refuse to buy that product and also refuse to pay a fine simply for existing, the government can remove your property and freedom from you. Go ahead, try it for yourself and see.

Crowd Explodes When Arlen Specter Urges That We "Do This Fast"

R.I.P. Arlen Specter....

I saw this video today of a CNN interview with Rand Paul. To all the experts on the rule of law on my ATS, I have a question. In this video Paul says Obama is retooling Obamacare without Congressional approval. Isn't this a major abuse of power? You don't rewrite a passed bill. Am I wrong?

Rand Paul CNN Interview

Great thread! Obamascare is going to be the straw that broke the camel's back (as well as the Republic's). Everything in this bill reeks of totalitarian control over our health, our privacy, our money and our future. If we allow this to stand we deserve everything that will come of it.
It is the crowning achievement in a long string of abuses, patiently suffered by a public willing to continue trusting their "leaders" long after common sense screamed impending danger. Biometric ID is the tool to implement absolute control over every single aspect of our lives - should they decide we are fit to live them.
The federal government has obviously sold us out long ago. Our only hope is to force our state legislatures to stand against this abomination and begin working towards dismantling a bloated Federal beauracracy.
