billvon 3,111 #26 November 5, 2015 >Ah. Romney didnt write it ====================== Mitt Romney Finally Admits Obamacare Was Based On Romneycare October 23, 2015 By The Federalist Staff Mitt Romney finally admitted that Obamacare never would’ve become law if not for Romneycare, Romney’s signature health law in Massachusetts, contradicting pretty much everything the former Republican presidential nominee claimed during the 2012 election cycle. In an interview with the Boston Globe about Staples founder Thomas Stemberg, who died today, Romney made some interesting comments about state-run health insurance plans. While characterizing Stemberg, a long-time Romney friend, as a driving force for Romneycare, Romney finally admitted that Romneycare was the blueprint for Obamacare: “Without Tom [Stemberg] pushing it, I don’t think we would have had Romneycare,” Romney said. “Without Romneycare, I don’t think we would have Obamacare. So, without Tom a lot of people wouldn’t have health insurance.” . . . Romney’s latest comments confirm what so many conservatives, including several who challenged him for the Republican nomination in 2012, suspected about Romney all along: that he only gave lip-service to Obamacare repeal because deep down, he actually supported the law since it was so closely modeled after his signature accomplishment in Massachusetts. ========================= Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cvfd1399 0 #27 November 5, 2015 I got the details tonight from her. The only plan they were eligible for under obamacare was 1300-1500 per person per month and a 11,000 out of pocket before it kicks in. She told me that they were enrolled in medicare this week and with "medigap" they have obtained medical insurance only for 193 per person, and are now looking for a plan that covers prescription. She said the reason she wasn't on it before was she 1. Made too much with his pension and her income, and 2. Was on the companies insurance. Once she was let go she had to turn in the pink slip to the medicare people along with tons of tax and financial info to prove they did not make too much to be eligible. So your correct medicare was the savior for now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tkhayes 348 #29 November 5, 2015 it does actually help the poor, especially in the states that signed on. In the states that did not sign on, i.e. Florida and Texas, then yes, it actually hurts the poor. That is not a flaw with the ACA, that is a flaw with the right wing nutjob anti-Obama policies of Florida and Texas (and others) For a pretty smart guy, you are in fact pretty obtuse when it comes to that simple fact. the STATES did not sign on...therefore they do not get the benefits and therefore the people suffer. complete utter bullshit from you today my friend..... this coming from a company that is in fact, trying to buy health insurance for their staff, but cannot for the simple fact that Florida decided to opt-out, and therefore it is both unaffordable for employers and employees. congratulations....well done you right wing idiots.
