Yep........


"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

One MAJOR thing I don't understand about the "Affordable Care Act":  If healthcare is too expensive now (and it is), how is it going to be cheaper after adding in several layers of government bureaucracy?
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!

It's easy, TT.

It works like this.  

Say a medical service provider now charges $100 for a procedure.  Under the ObamaCare, that provider will only be able to charge $50.  A 50% reduction in the cost.  

There will be a government imposed surcharge of $150 for that procedure, but think of all the jobs it is providing....and you no longer have to worry about finding the best health care provider to meet your particular needs....all taken care of.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

If BHO and the minions really wanted folks to be able to afford health insurance, they could knock a big dent in the problem by opening up  interstate trade to increase competition among insurance companies.

For example, in Georgia, if you buy a policy from Blue Cross, it has to be 'Blue Cross-Blue Shield of Georgia'. You can't go outside of the state to another BC-BS (such as Alabama) that may be cheaper for the same policy.

Also, many doctors and hospitals restrict what insurance they will accept.....which also limits options.

A few regulation changes and it would be a different game.
