    And the Soviets KNEW exactly how every company needed to spend every Ruble as well. I bet you're just as 'smart' as those 5 year planners.

    I had a good plan too. Why should I now pay a huge tax, while my congressman does not? Additionally if anything is actually wrong with the bill, do you actually think it is going to get fixed if your officials aren't forced to be on it?

    And if you need sources you can trust, how about the Wall Street Journal. Their reviews aren't exactly good.

    Government employees already have a sweet plan as do a lot of well organized unions.

    ObamaCare small business tax breaks and credits are available to cover ObamaCare small business cost increases. While 96% of employers won't pay additional taxes, there is an increase to the current Medicare tax, paid by 3% of businesses. There is also a requirement for employers with over 50 full-time employees to purchase health insurance for their workers or pay a penalty. ObamaCare offers incentives, such as tax breaks and tax credits via the SHOP Exchange, to small businesses with less than 25 full-time workers to help them provide health benefits to employees.

    The ObamaCare small business Medicare tax hike is a .9% increase on the current Medicare part A tax. Small businesses making under $250k in taxable profit don't have to pay this ObamaCare small business tax increase."

    So you think people who are getting something they don't have to pay for newsworthy? Of course people who are uninsurable love it when the govt makes everyone else pay their bills. DUHHHH!!!!

    Turn your TV on or maybe read something.

    None of what he said was false.

    One thing I've learned in forums.... the longer the OP... the more they're trying to convince themselves.

    No, no that means that all of those folks think Obamacare is TOO GOOD for them. They are studies in humility, don'cha know?

    Well Mick, some people like to say just anything, and hope we'll believe it. That's an interesting take on reality. :)
    And I know what you mean about the long OPs. This one was so long my scroller almost wore out just trying to skip all the extra text.

    Lol at right-wingers still attempting to perpetuate that debunked lie.

    Probably just more propagandic pap from the right-wing since it isn't being reported by any reputable news source.

    No Todd, probably not. Big public companies do not lie as opposed to politicians - everything that may have effect on their shares has to be true statements, or management goes to jail. At least, it is the law.

    And I appreciate your listening to my advice, and removing your signature, praising Obama's 3 o'clock call :)

    Ahahaha! Where the (*)(*)(*)(*) have you been for the past 30-40 years? Companies lie ALL the time and management rarely goes to jail.

    Well, since I change my signature pretty much whenever I feel like it on a fairly frequent basis, you're ah... welcome?

    It's a matter of record that Moody's and Standard and Poor rated those phony-mortgage-backed derivates and default swaps AAA right up until the crash. And it wasn't even remotely illegal to do so.

    The Obama administration put a "doctor" to interpret the Obamacare and for him to post his interpretation online. In the TV news, this doctor suggested that it wasn't necessary to read the Obamacare and instead to read his online information as the best thing to do.

    This doctor even said that "doctors won't make much money with Obamacare as they do with other programs" but that "he" (not the rest of doctors) is willing to that sacrifice.

    So, this doctor -wearing a red tie in his neck like a clown- suggested for people to understand Obamacare by following his interpretation as the best choice, and that doctors will be happy (like him) to sacrifice themselves and make less profit with this new health care program.

    I have no idea if today people is so fool to believe in such propaganda, but we can notice that there are fanatics following Obama... I can tell that listening to this doctor is to have 100% evidence that Obama survives thanks to the fanatiscism of his followers.

    Reality is that somebody must pay for the health care of those millions whom today can't afford to have one, and if not directly from the tax payer, the money will come directly from goverment funds, and the government is in trillions of dollars debt already.

    We simply don't need to add more debt to the existing one.

    They aren't "signing anyone up" now, just giving out the true information.

    How about a link to this "doctor's" statements you claim occurred.

    Or is this a Pabst Blue Ribbon haze-inspired vision?

    If anything good can come from Obamacare, forcing Government cubicle rats into the system will work just fine.
