    I guess that's one way to "get new signups". :MARIS61:

    Yep, If the plan was to totally screw up the healthcare coverage system, the Obama team has been wildly successful

    When you tax employers for providing health care for employees, spouses and retirees, you are not likely to produce revenue, you are more likely to produce less of what you tax.
    When you dictate what alll compliant plans must contain then you more than likely will see insurance companies stop offering non compliant plans and not renew them with existing customers. When the requirements of compliant plans include line items that boost costs, the plans will cost more and therefore less people will buy them. Only people shielded from these costs, like people with government subsides will be oblivious to the increased costs.

    It seems to me, Obama and crew are getting behavior exactly what their law was intended to achieve, which is exactly what the text of the law was designed to produce.

    In many cases the damage to the previous system is now unrecoverable.

    The only question left to be answered is why? Why is this dismantling of the previously existing system the goal of Obama and crew?

    Act II to follow.

    Holy Mackerel! Just think of the legacy, Barack Hussein Obama! The man who destroyed the Healthcare system covering 85% of Americans. Oh what fine work, Fundamental change for America!

    Wonder what the reward will be?

    Obama has not shied away from stating he wanted eventually a single payer national health care system. This is it. It was planned.

    Eventually it will probably become that. And once the ACA gets into motion (and actually gets into motion, not "hey, october 1st? you can sign up...wait..just playin'!), people will refuse to let it go. And I bet within 5-10 years, it'll be cookin' along and all of the "sky is falling" talk will be looked back at and people will chuckle.

    And once it is finally a single player (or at least, a public option) it'll probably be done by a Republican President (and they'll take credit for it, as that's what the parties do).

    well, look at the bright side. I may never cover Americans as intended, but according to NPR there is a big push to cover all of the illegal immigrants and better yet, it is subsidized by the US government.
