"Let's make sure that everybody who is out there working hard and doing the right thing, that they're not going to go bankrupt because they get sick, that they're going to have health care they can count on," Obama said in a Chicago, during the 2012 presidential campaign. "And we got that done."
Editor's notes: Oh really? Well, think about this: a wage earner making $20,000 per year will be expected to pay at least $3,000 for his health insurance before he qualifies for any assistance from the feds. And, if he makes more than $15,800, he will not qualify for any of the (free) Medicare expansion programs. No one, it seems, knows for certain but it looks as if the this wage earner will be on the hook for as much as $6,000 per year before it is all said and done. Yes, he can pay a fine and refuse insurance coverage, but that was not the promise upon which this bill was passed into law.
In the end, the mounting concern is this: between 30 and 50 million Americans will not have health insurance, before all this is said and done -- two, three years, down the road. Funny, before ObamaCare was passed, Obama was bragging about "universal healthcare." Turns out just as many people will not be covered as before ObamaCare became law.
I (and others) told you so.
