Massachusetts representative Stephen Lynch isn't just worried about the negative impact Obamacare will have on his party's performance this fall — he also thinks its worst effects on our health-care system are still to come. Lynch, who voted against the Affordable Care Act in 2010, warned that the situation is "going to hit the fan" when the law's delayed provisions go into effect down the road.

"There are parts of Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act, that were postponed because they are unpalatable," he told the Boston Herald. The "Cadillac tax" that goes into effect in a few years and taxes employer health plans over a certain value, he said, will be "the first time in this country's history that we have actually taxed health care."

Repeal is now impossible, he says, because of the number of Americans who've signed up for the law's exchanges. Democrats will take big political hits on the law this fall anyway, Lynch said.

"We will lose seats in the House," he said. "I am fairly certain of that based on the poll numbers that are coming out from the more experienced pollsters down there, and I think we may lose the Senate."

Sounds like he is one more Democrat that got around to reading the bill after all this time.

People sleep peacefully at night because there are a few tough men prepared to do violence on their behalf.

A foolish man complains about his torn pockets.

A wise man uses it to scratch his balls.

Copy the area you would like to quote.  Then paste it into your post that your making.  Then high light it by going over with your mouse holding down the left side.  Once high lighted go up and hit the quote above the smileys.  It look like this.  That should put what you high lighted in as a quote.

If you need more help, just PM me and I will walk you through each step.  It will say you a lot of time, and you can talk about only one or two areas if you like.

"ObamaCare raise questions about future enrollment"


snip~
"Twenty to 33 percent are actually newly insured and out of 8 million, that would be no more than 2 to 3 million people," said David Hogberg of National Center for Public Policy Research in Washington.

That is why the CBO showed that at the end of this year, there will still be 42 million uninsured and 31 million without insurance ten years from now.

Not only that, but starting in 2018, the CBO report projected the total getting coverage from the exchange will hit 25 million, although at the same time 12 million will lose coverage.

Scott Gottlieb of the American Enterprise Institute said, "So net, you're left with 13 million people who end up on private coverage over the next decade as a result of ObamaCare, and this is according to the Congressional Budget Office's own estimates." 


snip~
In the meantime, the administration still insists it does not know how many people have actually paid their first premiums, which makes them officially enrolled. Analysts, however, have said all they have to do is ask.

"Every insurance company knows exactly how many people it has insured who have paid their premiums by the first of every month," said Robert Laszewski of Health Policy and Strategy Associates.

Question is, when will the media start asking?????  You know the White House won't because they know the numbers will shoot holes in their lies.

This is akin to a teen claiming he only scratched dads car, even though the insurance co. claimed it was totaled.
These fools live in complete denial of the failures of the Marxist.
Or is it failure, considering his goal is the destruction of America?

I think he is doing just as he desires. It is all about Obama. However, even the dems are beginning to see the light. A union came out and criticized him concerning the Keystone pipeline. This may just be the beginning. If the dems take a shellacking in November we will really see the rats abandoning ship.
