Here is a serious question about Obamacare and you

JD Barleycorn's Avatar
How many of the vocal supporters of Obamacare have signed up or started an account? Simple quesition but a serious one. You talk but how many have taken that step. You don't even have to sign up but have established an account. In other words, you're registered yourself. You're in the system now.

So I have to ask the rest of us, should we even pay attention to you if you haven't signed up for the "wonderful thing"? Without the courage of your conviction then what do you have?

I opened an account at the beginning. I am enrolled. I am insured as of Jan. 1.

Not an easy process but well worth it. I Still have BCBS as my insurance carrier. and, it's a multi-state PPO.
So did you sign up thru healthcare.gov? You make it sound like you have the same policy and carrier and are paying considerably less. I believe from another thread you said you weren't getting a subsidy.

I'm not seeing anyone else make this claim. I'm not even seeing anyone making the claim they've been able to get a policy in Texas thru the healthcare.gov website.

I don't need it apparently you don't need it so neither of us should comment on it.

Chalk me up as another that does not need the ACA. Are we starting a "Trend" that those of us who do not need to sign up for the ACA will not comment on it in the future?

Why did JD Idiot only target those who are "vocal supporters of Obamacare?" Why not include everybody as opposed to the select audience that JD Idiot targeted?

Let's take JD Idiots comments a step forward. Shall we?

How many of those in opposition to Obamacare have actually signed up or started an account? Simple quesition but a serious one. You talk but how many have taken that step. You don't even have to sign up but have established an account. In other words, you're registered yourself. You're in the system now.

So I have to ask the rest of us, should we even pay attention to you if you haven't signed up for the Affordable Care Act? Without the courage of your conviction then what do you have?

For the record, I have not signed up and will not in the future. Why? I will be covered by the same health insurance plan as before the ACA rollout!

Despite your ignorant attempts to deflect and deny, YOUR healthcare costs went up because YOU are subsidizing someone else's healthcare. So you now have a healthcare plan that is in every respect as functionally efficient as the USPS: just like Odumbo promised.

I have already drawn mine!

Fuel for thought, JD Idiot's taxes must not be very high on his meager custodian wages!

That is interesting. I also have BCBS and also another health insurance through my current employer. Why did you sign up when you already had BCBS? Are you looking at it as a supplement plan like a Medicare supplement, or are you dropping BCBS? Also if you are carrying both, which becomes primary? My plan has always been to maintain BCBS, but drop my 2nd insurance when I do retire and pick up Medicare.

Poor attempt at deflection, BigKoTex: the BUTTer Bar Asshat. Odumbo, Pelosi, et al, already enrolled everyone to pay for Odumbocare, and it's noticable that you, BigKoTex: the BUTTer Bar Asshat, didn't even try to deny it.

In your quote, BigKoTex: the BUTTer Bar Asshat, you you purposefuly edited out the part that directly dealt with your deflection so that you can pretend you are not deflecting; even though, by doing so, you are explicitly underscoring that you are attempting to deflect:

"Odumbo, Pelosi, et al, already enrolled everyone to pay for Odumbocare, and it's noticable that you, BigKoTex: the BUTTer Bar Asshat, didn't even try to deny it."
