maybe they can blame Republicans

[DowningRules]

Is it too late to blame Bush, or did that one exprire at the beginning of Obama's second term?

[VariousCrap]

You cannot compete with the government because it can run at a loss forever

 

 

The "it can run at a loss forever" is not true.  History has shown that eventually, it will catch up and when it does - collapse.

[Adam]

Well yeah... That's what I mean

Did anyone expect anything different from a government that passes bills BEFORE reading them????

As a software guy for the past 25 years, take it from me, guberment.   Testing software is not your enemy.

I blame EVERY politician in both parties, going back some TWO decades.

Kathleen Sebelius has admitted that they probably needed FOUR years to roll this thing out.

Sooooo.

 

 

I'm single with no kids.  Why do I have to pay for maternity care and dental care for children?

Because you chose to be born here.

[fan_since79]

In Bush's 2006 State of the Union address, he talked about the need for affordable health care. So it's his fault for setting this thing in motion. 

[Lhalo]

Wow. Just wow.

The same reasons you pay other taxes that might not necessarily affect you.

[Bruce Nye]

If Sebelius is fired, will she have to apply for Obamacare?

[Taylor]

The same reasons you pay other taxes that might not necessarily affect you.

 

Since when is health care a tax?

[fan_since79]

Since when is health care a tax?

 

John Roberts said it could be construed as such, in deciding that Obamacare did not violate the Constitution. He struck it down on interstate commerce grounds, but upheld it as a tax.

Nate, I started a new thread about this breaking news.  If it gathers no more attention, I'll move it into this one.

[nate]

Missed it, good call, it deserves its own thread.

[Spirit]

The federal government needs to get out of the health insurance business and stay focused its core competencies:  Spying on its own citizens and foreign leaders. 

[mtangelsfan]

Ha!  They aren't even good at that.  They got caught.

[Tank]

so just what is this administration good at doing? anyone? bueller?

[Bruce Nye]

I don't know if this has been covered but I saw a piece in the news that one of the lead software leaders is a personal friend and classmate of Michele Obama and got a no-bid contract.
