Memo to NWAROUNDER, the capacity problems and other software glitches have not been fixed yet. You can't estimate anything based on the first week. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that in the first year (2014) 10 million people will get health insurance from the Obamacare exchanges. Getting health insurance to 10 million more people is good thing. Now go back to where you work and continue to tell your doctors who they can and cannot see.

I will gladly adjust as the numbers come in and the website gets fixed. I was merely pointing out, in your memo to Dr. Carson, that no one on the face of the earth except you, were estimating 47M to sign up the first year. Revised down to 10M on the same day. See your trend?
Dr. Carson has and always will be one of my biggest inspirations, but he's headed down the wrong path now. He's allowing himself to be manipulated by far right wing groups that are only looking for a minority face to further whatever agenda they have, as if in someway that will endear minorities to the republican party. The times I saw Dr. Carson on Hannity, he seemed to be pretty good at avoiding the oversimplifications, half truths, and over-exaggerations that politicians are good at these days. Apparently the more moderate approach wasn't getting him where he wanted to be so now he's going this route.
The ironic part about him attacking Obama is that if it were not for Obama no one in the GOP would be taking people like him, Herman Cain, or Tim Scott seriously, since before Obama it had not been proven that a minority could win the presidency and the GOP is not progressive that way. Rafael Cruz, Rubio, et al also owe Obama a debt of gratitude for breaking the glass ceiling.
As far as Obamacare is concerned, as an independent, I wish the GOP was as interested in quoting studies from actuaries back in 2009 as they are today, and provided a real alternative that would take care of the preexisting condition problem in the individual health insurance market. Had they done that instead of simply trying to out - politic a better politician, America would be in a better place now. Neither side really has a firm understanding of the issues involved in health insurance and frankly they are both more interested in playing politics than fixing problems.

Premiums are down.
Doctor choice is UNCHANGED from the status quo.
There ARE no government owned insurance providers involved here.
YOURE JUST A FUCKING LIAR. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

See, no death panels in Obamacare, wasn't that nice of them?
He knows what he is talking about. Even Howard Dean admitted that obamacare HAS DEATH PANELS!

Speaking for myself I currently have GREAT coverage for me the fam which is a bit pricey but I pay it, and due to the fact I'm in a higher tax bracket, I wouldnt qualify for subsidized care BUT I dont have issues with those who do.
Please tell me why the higher costs of subsidies to the wealthy are more acceptable than helping those whom are less fortunate?? Originally Posted by GentleGiant2467
