Obamacare Already Being Felt

Well President Obama came out today feeling good talking about how his "health care benefits are already being felt" (NYDailyNews.com).   However, as usual, he uses lies and distortion about the facts to make it sound good, when in fact it is a disaster for America.  So Americans are beginning to see this pig of bill for what it is and I doubt many are calling it a benefit.  This disastrous bill started screwing Americans right away and will continue to screw Americans unless we can repeal & replace.  Let's look at the facts of his so called benefits and you decide what this bill should be called.  The following is a list of articles from the Heritage Foundation outlining the impacts this bill started having on Americans from the beginning:

1.  Obamacare Doesn’t Work on Children After All:  "Under the new law, insurance companies still would be able to refuse new coverage to children because of a pre-existing medical problem"

2.  Higher Health Insurance Taxes:  "Though the tax may be “scaled back” in the short term, it will hit more Americans’ health plans sooner in the long term."

3.  Obamacare the Television Ad:  "Facing an American public that hates their new health care law, the Obama administration and their union/corporatist allies are planning a multi-million dollar television ad campaign to sell the benefits of Obamacare. While Food and Drug Administration regulations require all advertising for prescription drug to “present side effect information in a manner similar to that used for the benefit information,” the Obama administration faces no such hurdle when making their pitch."

4. Young to Pay Higher Health Insurance Premiums: "The Associated Press reports that a new analysis by Rand Health predicts premiums for young adults could rise as much as 17 percent under the new law."

5.  Medical Devices Tax Will Costs Jobs:  "It’s not a matter of “if,” but “when.” Members of the industry are already raising red flags that the tax will bite hard. “‘This bill is a jobs killer,’ said Ernie Whiton, chief financial officer of Chelmsford’s Zoll Medical Corp., which employs about 650 people in Massachusetts. ‘We could be forced to (move) manufacturing overseas if we can’t pass along these costs to our customers.'"

6.  Obamacare May Be Fatal for Your HSA:  "A recent analysis from HSA Consulting Services concludes the new law will probably lead to major changes in how consumers can use such plans. And many of those changes may make the accounts far less appealing."

7.  Laws No Longer Mean What They Say:  "Major flaws in the gargantuan Obamacare bill started to emerge almost immediately after it was signed into law. One of the most embarrassing: failure to ensure immediate coverage for kids with pre-existing conditions—something Obamacare supporters had constantly promised was part of the bill."

You can read about all these "so called benefits", including number 8 through 27 and counting at the The Foundry.

I think it's clear that Obamacare is far from a benefit and looks more more like a detriment.  Again, Obama turns to his best lies and distortion to hide the facts.  Folks we need to come out in mass numbers this fall to remove each and everyone of these idiots in Congress who voted for this mess. Then, in 2012 we send this community organizer back to Chicago to join the unemployed.
