Obamacare report card- the program is failing

[Polishprince]

Since the Big O squeezed it through with parliamentary shenanigans in 2010, it has totally failed in keeping costs down as promised.


Au contraire, the American health care consumer is being subjected to financial assrapery at an unprecedented level.

Why won't the Democrat Congress and President do something about this?

Aren't they supposed to be ruling us now?

Anybody watching what Obamacare's costs have been doing lately?

This wouldn't exactly be news to anyone who has to buy Obamacare health care insurance... But for perspective, here's the latest on the 2010 government health care takeover that had been so vaunted in the press as Your-Gover...

I am still on my Cadillac grandfathered policy. $2600 deductible $3800 out of pocket cap per person. Was considered catastrophic when I made the switch before Obamacare took effect. Better than many of the obamacare approved policies these days. People get jelly when they find out how low our out of pocket cap is. One trip to the ER and you pretty much pay nothing the rest of the year.

It was never meant to succeed and it was meant to fail so that the Progressive movement could convince society we need a single payer system…

He will tell you in 2025 if he win in 2024…

Y'all had 4 years to do something about it, and did nothing.

It's a great program. Better chance to do something in 2024 to it, I guess.

A massive costly Democrat welfare program a complete failure?

Say it ain't so!

The D's voted against Trumpcare.

Trump's plan was to have tremendous healthcare with unlimited choices and financial savings which you'd have to see to believe.

The Democrats- and John McCain- were against it.

I suspect that McCain was for it. After all he told his constituency when running for office he would vote to repeal Obamacare.

However, the sonofabitch was a vindictive little shitass that voted against the bill just to do harm to Trump.

Trump wouldn't kiss McCain's RINO ass so he betrayed his country just to not give Trump a win.

May he rot in Hell.

Wait until those fines arise for every kid 26 and under. LOL For no insurance that is.

What fines?

 

[Ghost1776]

What fines?

Do you remember when Obama was in and I think it was his second term when all his Obamacare rumored bs was going around and at the time there was a law with in his bs bill that stated any children someone has that is 26 and under must have health insurance and if they don’t the parents I believe are the ones who get fined for it, and the kid wtihout it. I’ll see If I can find something on again it’s so old though I don’t know.

What fines?

This doesn’t specify kids but this was in place as well , a lot of this is suppose to take place during Biden now.

There is no federal penalty for not having health insurance since 2019, however, certain states and jurisdictions have enacted their own health insurance mandates.

The federal tax penalty for not being enrolled in health insurance was eliminated in 2019 because of changes made by the Trump Administration.

The prior tax penalty for not having health insurance in 2018 was $695 for adults and $347.50 for children or 2% of your yearly income, whichever amount is more. This penalty was designed to protect both people from skipping out on health insurance and not being able to pay off their medical expenses in the event of injury or illness.

State-level health insurance penalties still may be in effect.​

While there will not be penalties at the federal level anymore for going uninsured or choosing a plan that is not ACA-compliant, it is still important to look at state requirements for health insurance. A large handful of states have their own health insurance penalties that are assessed when people do not have insurance that complies with that state’s laws.

Some places where a health insurance penalty is still assessed:

• New Jersey. This state has a health insurance penalty that went into effect in 2019. The health insurance penalty is based on New Jersey’s prices for bronze level health insurance policies.
• Massachusetts has had a health insurance penalty since instituting a state health insurance program in 2006. In the past, they did not assess a health insurance penalty if someone paid one at the federal level. However, with the elimination of the federal health insurance penalty, they will begin charging a state fee.
• Vermont has instituted a health insurance penalty for uninsured individuals in that state. The health insurance penalty law went into effect in 2020.
• District of Columbia. This city has signed their own health insurance penalty into law. It went into effect in 2019.
