Question:
Will Obamacare self destruct before it even gets started?

"It seems like every week we learn about a new problem with the ongoing implementation of Obamacare. The latest "glitch"? The Obama Administration has been forced to delay key provisions of the law after realizing that employers simply will not be able to comply with the voluminous, convoluted, and still-evolving regulations that Obamacare requires.

The question is – can they ever successfully get this nightmare up and running? Without consumers paying the price in sky-rocketing health care premiums?

While it's good to see the Obama administration finally acknowledge that the law is flawed, it's not enough to just delay implementation. Never mind that the White House’s decision, via circumventing Congress, is unlawful!

That's why the U.S. Chamber is fighting to repeal Obamacare's most harmful provisions and start fresh with strategies that will actually work. A delay isn't enough. Join us now to tell the Obama administration that it's time to get health care reform right."

Sincerely,
Rob Engstrom
National Political Director
U.S. Chamber of Commerce

No, its already nailed me. Company I retired from after working there 38 years because of ObamaCare considerations did away with its retiree supplemental medical and prescription drug plan. As well for 2013 my estimated ObamaCare income taxes will be $4,800.00

Insurance companies just like pharmaceuticals have been increasing their profits year after year, even through the recession!!!



But silly brainwashed bastards like you put it all down to Obamacare!!??***!!!



Trying to get health care reform right...what f*cking planet are you on??? every attempt at reform since WW2 has been quashed, stamped on and got rid of!!!...and guess which party was mostly behind stopping reform???



Good or bad, this is going to stay in place!!! the only reason that Republicans don't like it, is because it got passed them and because all they have done in the past is talk about reform and that talk has been cheap!!!



I would agree that we have to get costs down, but again we are dealing with an industry that can not and and will not relent on making more and more money every single year, and the Republicans will NOT do anything and have NOT done anything to stop that!!!



No other industrialized country on the planet has this greedy stinking system like the US has!!!





And why would doctors retire early because of Obamacare exactly..........please tell me???







Yes I do know what is happening to nationalized health care in Europe and Canada, every one of these systems is not the same as each other btw!



But one thing is for sure they do not have medical debt as the biggest cause of bankruptcy and they do not have pre-existing conditions to stop people getting treatment, and they do NOT have free healthcare events traveling through the country treating people because they have lost their corporate jobs, or they are just down on their luck like they would in some the world SH1T HOLE!!!!!!!!!!



Canadians and Europeans BTW do NOT worry about medical debt if they become seriously ill like you idiots do, they do NOT worry about losing everything they own like you complete and utter stupid bastards do!!!!!



Your insurance companies and Pharmasuticals and your Hospitals are ripping off you dumb Americans 24/7, seven days a week, 52 weeks a year, and you silly born Bastards take it bending over!





Hey!!! become an American Doctor and make loads of money, screw the vocation in life!!!!!!





Americans............Thick as pig sh1t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It just might. But what you should really be asking is will the taxes meant to support it go away, and will the insurance companies who have jacked their prices sky high then lower them? For this the answers are hell no! America got ****** on this one.

A large portion of Obamacare is ALREADY in effect and quite popular. The mandate is the only major piece that has not gone active yet. Even though the mandate is delayed, the pools start this year and that's far more important than the mandate. All the mandate does is tax the freeloaders.

Obamacare is here to stay and no matter how bad it gets, it will never go away. The 2012 election was the very last chance this country had to get rid of it.

The Right has certainly been telling us that.



I'm more interested in seeing how it works once the dust settles. Changes aren't always easy to swallow. Doesn't mean they won't be beneficial in the long run.
