    Well, the original bill mandated jail time for those who don't purchase insurance. We got a watered down bill !

  3. From what I've read, this is the first instance that a requirement to be a US citizen requires you to purchase something, in this case - health care.

  5. Neither do the rest of us. Congressional Democrat "party line voters" voted for it without reading it themselves... They were more concerned in how they appeared in Nancy Pelosi [CUNT]'s eyes than how they FUCKED AMERICA!!!!!!!

  6. You don't get it. No matter what you do, you can't "trade yourself to success"... the POWERS will take everything you make, every opportunity your children ever had, and kick it to the curb.

    No matter how much money you appear to make, they won't let you enjoy it..

    "Fuck everything, just trade" (a common reaction on ET) is a misconception.

  7. FACTBOX-Details of final U.S. healthcare bill

    Not a bad bill.

    ---
    The legislation would require substantial insurance market reforms that would bar insurers from excluding people for pre-existing medical conditions and prevent them from arbitrarily dropping policy holders.

    Insurance exchanges would be created in which small businesses and individuals without employer-sponsored coverage would be able to shop for coverage. Plans offered on the exchange would have to meet minimum benefit requirements.
    ---

    About time something was done about people being dropped to inflate the bottom line.

    Solution:

    1. Buy all healthcare stocks as they are now public utilities.

    2. Do not buy health insurance. Wait until you are sick or hurt then go to the emergency room.

    3. Pay the fine for not having health insurance, which is cheaper than paying actual premiums

    4. buy health insurance once/if you become ill. you can not be rejected for pre-existing conditions.

    5. Rinse repeat enjoy.

    yay obamacare!
