Do you guys have a calendar listing moral high ground days? Weiner is in the grinder and its, moral relativism, now you have the superior position? I have a basic problem with stealing to provide for anyone. Now you want to burden a system to the point of failure, then we all have healthcare problems. What genius on your side thought that was a good idea?
Now that we passed it we are finding out what's in it.
AP: Glitch in Obamacare would place couples earning up to $64,000 in Medicaid
WASHINGTON President Barack Obama's health care law would let several million middle-class people get nearly free insurance meant for the poor, a twist government number crunchers say they discovered only after the complex bill was signed.
The change would affect early retirees: A married couple could have an annual income of about $64,000 and still get Medicaid, said officials who make long-range cost estimates for the Health and Human Services department.
"The fact that this is being discovered now tells you, what else is baked into this law?" said Leavitt, who served as Health and Human Services secretary under President George H.W. Bush. "It clearly begins to reveal that the nature of the law was to put more and more people under eligibility for government insurance."
That $64,000 would put them at about four times the federal poverty level, which for a two-person household is $14,710 this year. The Medicaid expansion in the health care law was supposed to benefit childless adults with incomes up to 133 percent of the poverty level. A fudge factor built into the law bumps that up to 138 percent.

clearly thought out it wasn't. i'm sure we are bound to find a ton of little surprises in this deal
It's not a bug, it's a feature.
These "glitches" accelerate the momentum towards single payer.

Oh, now I see your problem...you are stupid.
Medicare is not stealing. People pay into it their whole working life. Medicare is a social insurance program. Also, the Medicare program funds residency training programs for the vast majority of physicians in the United States.
The Medicare we have today is a program President John F. Kennedy proposed. It was passed after his assassination.

Discussion about a national health insurance system for Americans goes all the way back to the days of President Teddy Roosevelt, whose platform included health insurance when he ran for president in 1912.
But the idea for a national health plan didn't gain steam until it was pushed by U.S. President Harry S. Truman. On November 19, 1945, seven months into his presidency, Truman sent a message to Congress, calling for creation of a national health insurance fund, open to all Americans.
The plan Truman envisioned would provide health coverage to individuals, paying for such typical expenses as doctor visits, hospital visits, laboratory services, dental care and nursing services. Although Truman fought to get a bill passed during his term, he was unsuccessful and it was another 20 years before Medicare would become a reality.
President John F. Kennedy made his own unsuccessful push for a national health care program for seniors after a national study showed that 56 percent of Americans over the age of 65 were not covered by health insurance. But it wasn't until 1965 after legislation was signed by President Lyndon B Johnson that Americans started receiving Medicare health coverage.

I suppose it could happen. And millions pay in and never reach 65 years old. Yes it is socialized medicine, it is what civilized societies do. Can you imagine the plight of elderly today without Medicare?

Yes I can. They would have had the opportunity to own their own health insurance plan to cover their needs as they saw fit. You presume it would have turned out poorly, but we don't know that for a fact. Yank it out now, sure we have major issues.
