The American People are the stone that you can't squeeze blood from... |

Millions won' be able to afford to buy mandated health insurance.
And, they will be criminals.
The democrats have chosen to turn financially struggling Americans into criminals instead of criminalizing the pillaging of Americans, by the health insurance indusry.

1. It is a betrayal so enormous that you have to re-read the headlines every day |
|
just to be sure it wasn't a nightmare.
We are headed for either fascist government or else revolution and whatever comes after that.
And at this point, the PomPom squad contains the worst traitors in the country.

How would they ever enforce that? Throw everybody in jail who can't buy health insurance? That's alot of people. Completely disregarding what a blatent violation of human rights that is, jails would be so full that it would be impossible to fit that many people anywhere.
It's impossible. The government will still be forced to pay for their health insurance, as there is no alternative.

11. They can take the fine out of any assets they say you have. |

If you can't pay the fine, you'll get another with your contempt of court conviction. Whenever you DO have some money, it will be garnished to pay what you "owe" the govt on your accumulated fines. They can fuck with you no end without actually putting you in jail; and when they do put you in jail, don't imagine they'll be bitter about paying for your health care. Your incarceration, including health care, will be profitable to some corporation, which as with the obligation to purchase for-profit health insurance products, IS ALL THAT MATTERS to your elected leaders. All they care about is that somebody with a lobbying group gets paid, so then they in Congress will get paid, to pass more laws of the same kind that shook you down and drug you through courts and into jail. It's the business they're in.

For the sin of being jobless and insuranceless. Maybe they can just kill me.

4. Sure, that's why both plans offer a family of 4, making up to $88,200 a year, financial help. |
