    Congrats to the Republicans

    Good job - you tried blackmailing the President by threatening a government shutdown while trying to dismantle the Affordable Healthcare Act.... and you failed. The republicans backed themselves into a corner and will look like idiots no matter what.

      Obamacare....

      It's such a great plan that the democrats have given waivers to 1500 of their biggest contributing corporations, and unions.... And of course themselves. Because it's such a great plan that it will only apply to the rest of us, but not congress and their friends...

          "A mere 10% of Americans–the smallest approval rating for Congress in history–said they approve of Congress’ accomplishments"

              Anyone who doesn't think both sides carry the blame needs to have head checked. Its really pretty sad that this is the group of childish, selfish individuals we've voted for to run the country.

                  17% approval rating for the GOP and 37% approval rating for Democrats.

                  I think Chris Matthews said it best on Meet the Press this past Sunday. He said something like, you know that phrase throwing the baby out with the bathwater? Well congressional republicans are asking Obama to throw out the baby directly. It's not going to happen. It's his only legislative accomplishment and it's something that Democrats have been trying to do for generations and they're acting like he's supposed to just trash it in the name of compromise when they don't even have a plan to replace it. Nobody will blame him for that in the real world. They're asking too much.

                            I'm moving to a country that has nationalized healthcare. My monthly cost is half of what the affordable care act provides.

                            How much does a full body MRI scan cost you? Cost your insurer? Me? $250.00
                            My friend in LA had one. Cost her $2500 plus paying into the deductible. BC of Cali.

                            How much does a 2 week stay for gastrointestinal surgery w/o complications cost you?
                            Me? About $4,000. Thats 14 days.

                            Doctors visit? Me? $30. No deductibles.
                            Meds? Almost free. You?

                            US citizens have been porked by both parties. US is a for profit nation. Next decades only getting "better", er, "worse", er....

                            The US is in needs

                            Thank you Edgar Kaiser and Richard Nixon for realizing you should be making money off the dead and dying.

                                      My country also have national healthcare,but we also have a lot of private clinics,and for some things you must pay no matter what,and also doctors and nurses have very low salaries which is why they striking now.

                                        the term "socialist" is used very loosely in the US and here on GFY - i just went with the flow

                                          The NAZI REPUBLICANS are protecting their MULTI-TRILLION Private Medical Industry at the expenses of shutting down a whole country. Both, Private Health Insurance companies and Pharmaceutical companies are involved in this Manipulation of a whole country in addition to the Massive Scam and Robbery...

                                          It's pretty scary. But nothing new.

                                          Just watch SICKO and you will understand everything.

                                            And that is fine; I do not want to pay for something I will not use . . . I really don't want to pay for that same thing so that others can.

                                            I can't think of any outgo in my budget that does that.

                                              I'm not sure which needs more considered thought:

                                              1) The fact that the government has closed down due to their inner squabbles,

                                              or

                                              2) The fact they already paid to have signs printed up just for this event?

                                                        The majority of Americans don't want Obamacare.

                                                          Yes, because a bank loaned me the money so it is to protect them. If the home was paid for, I would likely drop it as I have never had a claim in 37 years of home ownership. Total waste of money but I could not afford to live here and pay cash for a home.

                                                            I think he's owned his house before they had home insurance, since the 1860s i believe.

And of course themselves. Because it's such a great plan that it will only apply to the rest of us, but not congress and their friends...
                                                                          Uhhhh... the whole idea is to provide insurance for people who cannot get insurance through their workplace. To try and exempt congress from getting insurance through their employer (federal government) is not the intention of the law. You're "exempt" when your employer provides your insurance.

                                                                          Unions aren't against the law as a whole either. What union wants to completely abolish the law and stand with Republicans to defund it?

Most of them paid at the bill what theY felt they could afford and not necessarily what the hospital or doctors wanted to be paid...with out any legal problems. A few that...didn't even pay at the bill...had a lien put on their house. So I think that people losing their homes because of medical bills is pretty much pigshit.

You dont like it work to change it or go someplace where you feel more at home those are your only real options.....Im surprised you arent on medicare anyway prolly close if not in which case its a moot point for you.

You pay for sick uninsured people in some manner. And 60% of all bankruptcies have some affiliation with medical debt... that's a fact not some anecdote.
